About this ownerʼs manual This ownerʼs manual explains the basic instructions of this unit. Some DVD video discs are produced in a manner that allows specific or limited operation during playback. As such, the unit may not respond to all operating command. This is not a defect in the unit. Refer to instruction notes of discs. The following symbol may appear on the TV screen during operation. It means that the operation is not permitted by the TV/DVD or the disc. For example, sometimes it is unable to stop the playback of copyright message of the disc when the STOP (■) button is pressed. Alternatively, this symbol may also indicate that the feature is not available for the disc. Notes on region numbers The region number of this unit is 1. If region numbers, which stand for their playable area, are printed on your DVD video disc and you do not find 1 or ALL , disc playback will not be allowed by the player. (In this case, the unit will display a message on-screen.) Some DVDs that have no region code label may still be subject to area restrictions and therefore not playable. On Video CDs This unit supports Video CDs equipped with the PBC (Version 2.0) function. (PBC is the abbreviation of Playback Control.) You can enjoy two playback variations depending on types of discs. • Video CD not equipped with PBC function (Version 1.1) Sound and movie can be played on this unit in the same way as a DVD. • Video CD equipped with PBC function (Version 2.0) In addition to operation of a Video CD not equipped with the PBC function, you can enjoy playback of interactive software with search function by using the menu displayed on the TV screen (Menu Playback). Some of the functions described in this ownerʼs manual may not work with some discs. Each title, chapter or track is assigned a number, which is called "title number", "chapter number" or "track number" respectively. There may be discs that do not have these numbers.
