Some DVD video discs may include a top menu, on which you can view the structure of contents or
select a scene. Most of the top menus automatically appear in certain scenes, and also are displayed on
demand. Actual operation of the top menu depends on the disc. This section explains a general example
of how to operate a top menu. Also refer to the instructions of the disc itself.
1) Press DVD.
2) Press / / /
If the titles in the top menu are assigned a number, you can directly locate a specific title by pressing its
designated number with the number buttons.
3) Press ENTER.

different instructions appear on the TV screen, follow those instructions.
• If you display the top menu during playback and press the DVD button again without selecting any title, the recorder may
resume playback from the point where you first pressed the DVD button. (depending on the actual DVD video disc.)
• This method of locating a title is available only on a disc that contains a top menu.
• Instruction notes of discs may refer to the button that displays the top menu as the TITLE button.
• Depending on the disc, the menu is displayed by the MENU button instead of the DVD button.
