The disc player
For all functions described in this chapter the disc player must be selected as the listening source.
The first step is therefore to switch the K1 AV to disc player mode by pressing the button on the front panel, or
the button on the remote control handset.
Inserting and playing a disc
Press the button on the front panel to open the
drawer.
Place the disc centrally in the appropriate recess in the
disc drawer, with the side to be played facing down.
Press the button on the front panel to close the
drawer. When the drawer is closed the machine reads
the disc. Once read, the disc can be started.
If you see the message ‘UNKNOWN’ on the
screen after the disc is read, then the disc in the
drawer is a format which the K1 AV is unable to
play (see chapter ‘Compatible formats’ at the
end of the chapter).
Starting the disc
If the d isc in the drawer is a Music CD or a Video CD
(VCD, S-VCD) you can start playback after the machine
has read the disc by pressing the button on the
front panel, or the button on the remote control
handset.
The behaviour of a DVD after it has been read is
determined by the DVD itself, and may vary slightly from
one disc to another. In most cases an introductory
message appears on the screen when the DVD has been
read, followed by a menu (DISC MENU).
You can navigate within this menu using the cursor buttons,
and select various points such as language, sub-titles and
sound format. To activate or select a menu point, use the
cursor buttons to move to it, then press the button.
When you have selected all the desired settings, start the
film (generally by selecting the menu point ‘Play film’).
During playback
Opening the disc menu
The disc menu can be opened at any time during
playback by briefly pressing the blue button. By
this means you can call up all the Disc Menu functions
even when the disc is playing.
Track select
You can switch to the next or the previous track on the
disc using the button on the front panel or the
/ buttons on the remote control handset.
A track can also be selected directly by entering its track
number using the numeric keypad on th e remote control
handset.
Pause
Pressing the d () button halts playback
temporarily. Pressing the button resumes
playback.
Single-frame playback (DVD only)
When you are playing a DVD, repeated pressing of the
d button produces single-frame playback. To
resume normal playback press the button, as
previously.
Slow motion (DVD only)
The slow motion function is started by holding the
d button pressed in until the function starts.
Repeated long presses of the d button alter the
speed of the slow motion: 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 speed.
Press the button to revert to normal playback.
Search
Pressing the / buttons starts a search in the
reverse or forward directions.
Pressing these buttons repeatedly varies the search rate.
The search is concluded by pressing the button.
CD-Text
If the CD being playe d contains text information
(CD-Text), this is displayed on the television
screen connected to the K1 AV.
