FAQs

What is Safe Mode?

If you are having trouble starting your PS4 system, Safe Mode allows you to start the system with only the most basic functions. The Safe Mode menu options may help you correct issues and allow your PlayStation 4 to start normally.

Starting the Playstation in Safe Mode

Turn off the PlayStation by pressing the power button on the front panel. The power indicator will blink for a few moments before turning off.
Once the PlayStation is off, press and hold the power button. Release it after you've heard two beeps: one when you first press, and another seven seconds later.
Connect the DualShock controller with the USB cable and press the PS button on the controller.

How do I update the system software?

Before you can access any online features of the PlayStation 4, the system software needs to be updated to the latest version. System software updates begin downloading automatically as soon as they are available, and an on-screen notification will inform you when it is ready to install.

Firstly ensure you have inserted your disc correctly & also clean the disc with a soft, clean, slightly damp cloth. Hold the disc by the edges without touching the top or bottom surface.
