≥ Check connections to the AC adaptor or battery pack. (4)
≥ The unit has protection circuitry that is activated if it becomes too hot or too cold. The unit will not work if this
occurs. Use the unit between 5 oC and 35 oC.
≥ The unit turns off after it has been stopped for about 15 minutes (about 5 minutes when the unit is powered by the
battery pack) to conserve power. Turn the unit on again.
≥ The charging time increases when the temperature is too hot or too cold, and charging may not be possible under
some circumstances.
≥ Check connections to the AC adaptor or battery pack. (4)
≥ The battery pack has reached the end of its service life (It can be recharged about 300 times).
≥ This unit cannot play discs other than the ones listed in these operating instructions. (5)
≥ The unit may not be operating properly due to lightning, static electricity or some other external factor. Turn the unit
off and then back to ON. Alternatively, turn the unit off, disconnect the power source (AC or battery pack), and then
reconnect it.
≥ Condensation has formed: Wait 1 to 2 hours for it to evaporate.
≥ Please insert the disc correctly. (6)
≥ While stopped, press and hold [:] and [;] on the unit and then also press and hold [1 ON] on the unit until
"Initialized" disappears from the screen. Turn the unit off and on again. All settings will return to the default values.
≥ Check that the disc has something recorded on it.
≥ Play may take time to begin when an MP3 track has still picture data. Even after the track starts, the correct play
time will not be displayed; however, this is normal.
≥ This is normal on DivX video.
≥ Press [∫ –OFF] twice and then press [1 ON].
≥ Display the subtitles. (10)
≥ If you have set only the starting point (point A), the end of an item becomes point B when it is reached.

≥ If playing DivX VOD content, refer to the homepage where you purchased the DivX VOD content. (Example:
www.divx.com/vod)
≥ If a disc contains CD-DA and other formats, proper playback may not be possible.

≥ Select a LCD-SIZE other than "MONITOR OFF" (No picture). (7, Selecting how to show 4:3 aspect pictures on
the LCD)
≥ Select "DAYLIGHT" or adjust the brightness. (7)
≥ The LCD is constructed with precision technology so 99.99 % of the pixels are active, but of the remaining of
0.01 %, there are pixels that may be black or emit light constantly. This phenomenon is not a malfunction.
≥ Check connections. (15)
≥ Check that the television is on.
≥ Check that the input mode on the television is correct.
≥ Check the settings of "TV Aspect" in "Video" tab. (13)
≥ Turn off the zooming feature on your television if you are using Zoom. (12)

≥ Restore the zoom ratio to a1.00. (12)
≥ Set "Subtitle Position" in Display Menu to "0". (12)
