DVD Basics

To get the most use out of each DVD, make sure you read this section
completely.

Regional Coding

Both the DVD player and disc have specific region codes. These regional
codes must match in order for the disc to play. If the codes do not
match, the disc does not play. The system is set to the region code
designated for your area by the DVD Copy Control Association. Other
regions do not play in this system.

Loading and Playing Discs

When you press POWER, the system turns on in DVD mode. Place the
disc about halfway into the disc compartment slot, with the disc’s label
facing the rear of your vehicle. Insert the disc straight into the player; do
not insert the disc at an angle.

The disc loads automatically and begins to play. Some discs start at the
root menu, where you have to select disc play manually.

Depending on the disc and playback location on the disc, the icon may
display in the upper-left corner of the screen indicating that still
playback is not possible.

Notes
• To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface. Handle the disc by its

edge.

• Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines when not in use.

Also, do not subject a disc to heat or high temperatures. Avoid
leaving them in a parked vehicle, on a dashboard or on a rear tray.

• Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky ink or residue. Such

discs may stop spinning, causing a system malfunction, or ruining the
disc.

• Do not use any discs with labels or stickers attached. The following

malfunctions may result from using such discs:

• The system cannot eject a disc due to a label or sticker peeling off

and jamming the eject mechanism.

• The system cannot read audio data correctly, such as playback

skipping or no playback at all, due to heat shrinking of a sticker or
label causing the disc to warp.

• Before playing a disc, clean it with a commercially available cleaning

cloth. Wipe each disc from the center out. Do not use solvents such
as benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic
spray intended for analog discs.
