JVC TH-A5R DVD DIGITAL CINEMA SYSTEM

I cannot eject a dvd, the word 'LOCK' is appearing on the display. Nobody's pressed anything, and there is nothing in the manual about this. The system is about 5 years old. Any suggestions?

I found the solution for my DVD player you need to hold source down for 5 seconds which will unlock the disc.

My dvd player is locked

If you are unable to get the tray of the dvd player open either the player will have a hole in front for you to stick a (I use a straightened out paper clip) into and press in towards the dvd player. It will manually open the drive so you can retrieve your dvd or there will be enough of a lip on the tray door you can grab it and pull it open manually. Then I would try unplugging the player and waiting a few minutes and plugging it back in and you might get lucky and it may never happen again. Good luck . Hope it works.

I have a jvc th-p7 cinema system. and when i try to open the tray it say's locked. but i dont know how to take it off?????

You can lock the tray and prohibit the unwanted disc ejection.
On the center unit ONLY:
While the system is turned off
• The system turns on and "LOCKED" appears on the display
window.
• If you try to eject the disc, "LOCKED" appears to indicate that
the tray is locked.
To cancel
Carry out the same operation again.
• The system turns on and "UNLOCKED" appears on the display
window.
