• A “No Feature” symbol may appear at the bottom right of the

TV screen. This symbol means either the feature you tried is not available on the Disc, or the DVD/VCR can not access the feature at this time.

This does not indicate a problem with the DVD/VCR.

• If a Disc is dirty or has scratches, the pictures may appear distorted and playback may stop. In such cases, remove the Disc and turn off the DVD/VCR. Disconnect the power cord, then reconnect it. Clean the Disc, then turn on the DVD/VCR again and reinsert the Disc for playback.

• When the DVD or CD light appears on the display panel, the Disc is loaded completely and is ready for playback.

• When you press the OPEN/CLOSE button or the DVD PLAY button on the front of the DVD/VCR when the power is off, the DVD/VCR will turn on automatically and will be in DVD mode.
