Utility (Îpage 65).

tion, remove the disc from the drive and then reinsert it after waiting 15 seconds.

zWhen playing back video from a disc, playback may not be smooth in some conditions.
Power-saving mode
If the CD/DVD drive is not accessed for 30 seconds, the drive motor will automatically be shut down to reduce the power con-
sumption. When the CD/DVD drive is accessed again, the drive motor is turned on. In this case, reading of the disc data will
take approximately 30 seconds.
