the door. After the door is closed, the player enters Park Mode and then
determines whether a disc is in the drawer. If there is no disc in the drawer,
the player does nothing. If there is a disc in the drawer, it proceeds through the
operations described in Park Mode below.
In Park Mode In Park Mode the player determines whether or not there is a disc
in the disc tray. If there is no disc, the player does not operate. If there is a
disc, the player enters Spin Up Mode and spins-up the disc. When Spin Up Mode
ends, the player enters Random Access Mode and begins playing the disc.
In Random Mode (when search is not in progress) - The player starts playing disc.
During a search - After the search ends, the player starts playing the disc.
NOTE: Audio is not squelched while the disc is playing. When the lead-out area is
reached during normal play, the player automatically spins down the disc, enters
Park Mode and waits for one of several specific instructions — to reject the disc by
pressing the OPEN/CLOSE button on the front of the player, to play the disc again
by pressing PLAY on the front of the player or on the remote control, or to turn off
the player by pressing the Power-OFF button on the front of the player.
If the “Repeat Side” Function has been set to ON, the player automatically searches
to the beginning of the disc and plays it again when lead-out is encountered. See
