About this manual
This manual gives the basic instructions for operating the

allow only limited operation during playback which may not
respond to all operating commands. When this occurs, the
symbol

appears on the TV screen, indicating that the
operation is not permitted by the player or the disc.

Unless stated, all operations can be carried out with the
remote control. Always point the remote control directly at
the player, making sure there are no obstructions in the
path of the infrared beam.
Corresponding keys on the front panel of the player can
