If it appears that the DVD Video player is faulty, first consult this checklist.
Something may have been overlooked. Under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair the system yourself; this will invalidate the warranty.

Look for the specific symptom(s). Then perform only the actions listed to remedy
the specific symptom(s).

–

Check if the on/off button on the front of the player is set to on.

–

Check if there is power at the AC outlet by plugging in another appliance.

Check if the TV is switched on.

–

Select the same channel and source on the TV as on the player.

–

Check the video connection.

–

Check the disc for fingerprints and clean the disc with a soft cloth,
wiping from the center to the edge.

–

Sometimes a small amount of picture distortion may appear. This is not a

malfunction.

–

If the picture is distorted completely or if the picture rolls vertically,

make sure the NTSC/PAL setting at the DVD player matches the
video signal of your television.

If your TV video signal is NTSC, select the NTSC setting at the DVD player.

The disc format does not match your TV’s video signal (PAL/NTSC).

amplifier’s phono input.

PCM.

your receiver capabilities.

Check to see if the disc is defective, badly scratched or warped (not flat).
