A still picture may be displayed after all titles are played. In this case, the screen protection activates after about 10 seconds.

Notes

Do not move the recorder during playback. It may damage the disc.

Occasionally the picture may stop at the last scene, or the main menu may appear after playing.

If you display a still picture such as the main menu on the TV screen for a prolonged period, the TV may be damaged (image burn). To prevent this, press the STOP button to stop playback.

A still picture for about 15 minutes while the TIMESLIP indicator illuminates, will return to normal playback. If the playback is completed, a still picture of the title end will continue unless you press the TIMESLIP button.
