The Remote Control Doesn’t Work

• Something might be between the remote and the remote sensor on the component. Make sure there is a

clear path.

• Maybe the remote isn’t aimed directly at the component (DVD, TV, VCR) that you’re trying to operate.

• Maybe batteries in remote are weak, dead, or installed incorrectly. Put new batteries in the remote.

(Note, if you remove the batteries, you may have to reprogram the remote to operate other
components.)

• You might need to reset the remote: remove batteries and press the number 1 button for at least 60

seconds. Release the 1 button, replace the batteries, and (if necessary) program the remote again.

Problems with V-Chip/Parental Controls

The rating limits don’t work

You must activate the settings.

I don’t remember my password and I want to unlock the TV

• If you forget your password you can reset it. Enter 5898 as the password and then change it to a new

one.

DVD Problems

Can’t advance through a movie

• You can’t advance through the opening credits and warning information that appear at the beginning of

movies because the disc is programmed to prohibit that action.

The invalid icon appears on screen

• The feature or action cannot be completed at this time for one of the following reasons:

• The disc’s software restricts it.

• The disc’s software doesn’t support that feature (e.g., angles).

• The feature is not available at the moment.

• You’ve requested a title or chapter number that is out of range.

The picture is distorted

• The disc might be damaged. Try another disc.

• If you’re using FORWARD or REVERSE buttons, it is normal for some distortion to appear while scanning.

A screen saver appears on the TV

• Your player is equipped with a screen saver that appears on the TV after your player has been idle for

several minutes. To make it disappear, press STOP or CLEAR on the remote.

Subtitle and/or audio language is not the one selected from the initial setting

• If the subtitle and/or audio language does not exist on the disc, the initial settings will not be seen/

heard. The disc’s priority language is selected instead. Set the subtitle and/or audio language manually
through the Info Display or the player menu.
