The types of functions and operations that can be used for a
particular disc vary depending on the features of that disc. In
some cases, these functions and operations may differ from
the descriptions given in this Owner's Manual. In this event,
follow the instructions given on the screen. This Owner's
Manual only covers basic disc operations.
<
For some operations, the PROHIBIT icon (
or
) may
appear on the screen. This indicates that the operation
described in this Operations Manual is not permitted for the
current disc.
