Troubleshooting

Not every picture or sound problem is caused by a defect in your DVD player. Impairment
can also be caused by leads having been accidentally pulled out, damaged DVDs/CDs
and worn-out batteries in the remote control. If the following measures do not do not
rectify the problem, consult an authorised dealer.
DVD R/RWs in DVD video format, as well as CD Rs and CD RWs in CD-DA and MP3 for-
mat can be played. Due to the difference in quality of the recording media and the quality
of the recording itself, it can occasionally happen that a home-made DVD or CD cannot
be read. This does not indicate a malfunction of the DVD player.
