will appear on the TV screen according to the type of
loaded disc. In this case, check your disc again (see

picture playback or menu display does not begin
automatically, press PLAY ( ).
• A prohibition message "Depending on the disc,
this operation may be prohibited" or "This operation
can't be performed" may appear at the screen. This
message means either the feature you tried is not

feature at this time. This does not indicate a problem
with the unit.

(i.e. the wrong way up) "Loading" will appear on the
display and then "Can't play disc" will be displayed.
• Some playback operations of DVDs may be
intentionally fixed by software producers. Since
this unit plays DVDs according to the disc content
recorded, some playback features may not be
available. Also refer to the instructions supplied with
the DVDs.
