6 Introduction

Welcome!
This Digital Video Disc Player will allow you to enjoy better picture quality, clearer sound,
and endless playback features on Digital Video Discs (DVDs). Expanding technology allows
you to add options to your viewing - watch a director's cut of a movie, listen to the pro-
ducer's comments, or play your favorite scene repeatedly. Hear a movie in different lan-
guages, or listen only to the soundtrack. The possibilities are limited only by your choices
and the materials available on the DVD.
Of course, you can listen to your favorite Audio Compact Discs on this DVD Player, too.
Determine the order in which you want to hear the songs, or play the Disc repeatedly -
all while seeing the status of the CD on your television.
We hope you enjoy this DVD Player and learn to use its features. To get the most from
the DVD Player, read this manual carefully. It will describe how you can access these
features.

Disc Menus...
Some explanations in this manual describe the Disc Menus. These menus are set by the
movie producers or by the music industry; the menus will vary among Discs.
Furthermore, not all Discs have menus. However, if the Disc has a menu, you can access
the Disc Menu by pressing DISC MENU on the remote control. Details are on pages 16
and 26.
DVD Player Menus...
Some instructions explain how to use the DVD Player's menu (or the System Menu) to
set up features of the DVD Player or the Disc. You get to the DVD Player Menu by
pressing SYSTEM MENU on the remote control. Even if a feature is set up in the DVD
Player's menu, it may not be available if the current Disc does not include that feature.
Available Disc Features...
Features in this manual may not be available on every DVD or Audio CD. If
the feature is not available on the Disc, you cannot use the DVD Player to
make these features available. An "X" will appear in the top left corner of
the TV screen if you try to access a feature that is not available on the cur-
rent Disc or not available at the current time. The "X" may not be visible if the DVD
you are playing is in Widescreen format (with black bars at the top and bottom of the
picture).
