Disposal
for choosing a Loewe product. We are happy to
welcome you as our customer.
• Place the DVD recorder on a firm, level base.
• Do not place the DVD recorder in the vicinity of
sources of intense heat or in direct sunlight.
• When installing in a cabinet or enclosed shelf:
Leave about 2.5cm free space around the DVD
player for unhindered air circulation to prevent
build-up of heat.
• There can be interference to the images and
sound of any nearby television, video recorder or
radio. If this is the case, do not position the unit
in the direct vicinity of a TV set, video recorder
or radio, or switch the unit off after removing
the disc.
• Install the DVD recorder where there is nothing
to obstruct the remote control‘s infrared signal
from reaching the DVD recorder display.
• Do not place strong artificial light sources in
front of the device. This may affect infrared
reception.
• If there is an electrical storm, disconnect the
antenna and mains plug. Power surges caused
by lightning strikes can damage the unit through
the antenna system or the mains.

At Loewe we combine the highest standards
of technology, design and user friendliness. This is
equally true of TV, DVD, video, audio and acces-
sories.
Neither technology nor design is an end
in itself, but both are intended to provide our
customers with the best possible audio and visual
experience.
Our design is not influenced by short-term,
fashionable trends. You have, after all, purchased

not want to get tired of looking at tomorrow or the
day after.
cally sophisticated product. In line with national
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging
materials, we pay a fee to authorised recyclers
who collect packaging from dealers. However, we
recommend that you keep the original cardboard
box and the rest of the packaging materials so that
the unit can, if necessary, be transported in the
safest possible conditions.
The unit
Important: The EU Directive
2002/96/EG governs the proper
re-acceptance, handling and
recycling of used electronic ap-
pliances.
Scope of delivery
Old electronic appliances must therefore be
disposed of separately. Never throw this set in the
normal domestic waste. You can hand in your old
set free of charge at identified collection points or
at your dealer if you buy a similar new set. Other
details about re-acceptance (also for non-EU coun-
tries) are available from your local administration.

• this operating manual
• The antenna and mains should also be discon-
nected if the unit is to remain unsupervised for a
long period of time.
• The mains plug must be easily accessible so that
the unit can be disconnected at any time.
• Lay the cable in such a way that it cannot get
damaged. The power cable should not be kinked
or laid over sharp edges, not stood upon or
exposed to chemicals - the latter also applies to
the device as a whole. A mains cable with dam-
aged insulation can cause electric shocks and is
a fire hazard.
• When removing the power plug, pull the body
of the plug, and not the cable. Otherwise, the
wires in the plug could get damaged and cause
a short circuit the next time it is plugged in.
Remote control batteries
You can use the remote control to operate four
units: as well as this DVD recorder, a Loewe televi-
sion, a Loewe video recorder and a set-top box
(STB).
The batteries provided contain no harmful materi-
als such as cadmium, lead or mercury.
Regulations concerning used batteries mean
that batteries may no longer be thrown out with
the household rubbish. You can dispose of used
batteries free of charge at the collection points in
commercial outlets. Your dealer will also have a
collection point for used batteries.
You should also read and follow the safety advice
on the following pages.

Cleaning
Advantages of connection
to a Loewe TV set
• liquids and damp
• Only clean your DVD recorder with a damp, soft,
clean cloth (with no aggressive cleaning agents).
• If DVD recorder fails to read the disc correctly,
the reader unit in the device may be soiled. Use
a commercially-available cleaning disc.
• shock and mechanical stress
• magnetic and electrical fields
• cold, heat, direct sunlight and extreme fluctua-
tions in temperature
You can use Digital Link to install the DVD
recorder e.g. in an enclosed rack or a wall unit,
without there being direct visible contact with the
DVD recorder. Using the DVD remote control, you
can operate the DVD recorder via the Loewe televi-
sion. To do this, Digital Link must be switched on
at the DVD recorder (see page 17).
When you use the HDMI connection the TV
switches over to this input automatically as long as
it supports this function.
• dust
• Always keep the disc drawer closed to prevent
dust getting into the drawer and onto the lens.
• anything which obstructs ventilation
• manual interference with the unit‘s interior
For your safety
Your Centros has only been designed for use in a
domestic environment. The warranty covers this
normal use of the DVD recorder.
For your own safety and to avoid unnecessary dam-
age to your unit, please read and follow the safety
advice below:
If you want to make timer recordings from the
satellite tuner in the television, the recording is
controlled by Digital Link Plus.
PLEASE NOTE: TO AVOID RISK OF ELECTRICAL
SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE THE COVER (OR THE
REAR OF THE UNIT). THERE ARE NO PARTS INSIDE
THE UNIT THAT CAN BE REPAIRED BY THE USER.
REPAIRS SHOULD ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY A
LOEWE DEALER.
• This DVD recorder is only to be used for receiv-
ing, displaying and playing visual and sound
signals.
• Switch off your DVD system (Centros, TV and
any other audio components which may be
connected) before connecting or disconnecting
other devices or speakers.
Digital Link Plus enables channel data to be
transferred from the television‘s satellite and cable
channels to the DVD recorder, so that the same
channels appear in the same channel position.
This means that timer recordings of satellite and
cable channels can easily be programmed from
the television using the EPG (Electronic Program
Guide). The timer data is copied to the DVD re-
corder, which then, independently of the television,
carries out the timer recording. With timer data for
satellite stations, the television starts and stops the
DVD recorder and sets it to the Euro AV 1 input.
If playback begins, this is immediately shown on
the television, no matter which TV channel you are
currently watching (if the television is switched off,
it will automatically switched on).
If you have moved the DVD recorder from a
cold to a warm environment, leave it to stand for
about an hour because of the risk of condensation
building up. Do not switch it on until it has reached
room temperature. This will avoid seriously damag-
ing the components.
• Do not open up the housing, or you could be
directly exposed to the laser beam. The laser
beam will be visible if the unit is open.
DO NOT LOOK INTO THE LASER BEAM.
Read this operating manual, and experiment with
your new equipment‘s features so that you are
familiar with it.

chapter. Depending on the disc, chapters may not
be labeled.
Video CDs not equipped with PBC
(Version 1.1)
The finalized DVD disc is a DVD-Video disc.
These discs are operated in the same way as Audio
CDs and allow playback of video pictures and

DVD-R and DVD-RW discs
Track (Video CD or Audio CD only)
How are DVD-R and DVD-RW discs
different?
Symbols
Sections of a film or a piece of music on a Video CD
or an Audio CD. Each track has a track number to
enable you to find the desired track.
The essential difference between a DVD-R and a
DVD-RW disc is the fact that a DVD-R disc can only
be written to once, whilst a DVD-RW disc can be
written to several times. In addition, its content can
be deleted. You can write to and delete a DVD-RW
disc approx. 1000 times.
The symbol on the screen
During operation “ ” may appear on the screen.
This symbol means that the desired function is not
currently available on this disc.
Scene
On a Video CD with PBC (Playback Control) func-
tions, moving pictures and still pictures are divided
into sections that are called “scenes“. Each scene
is displayed in the scene menu and has a scene
number to enable you to find the scene quickly. A
scene consists of one or more tracks.
Disc symbols in the operating instructions
If part of the operating instructions contains one
of the symbols listed below, the section is only ap-
plicable to the disc shown on the symbol.
Many functions of this recorder are dependent
on the selected recording quality. One or more of
the symbols (DVD, Video, +RW, MP3) are dis-
played for each function described in the manual
so that you can immediately see whether the disc
supports this function.
Playback of writable discs on normal
DVD players
DVD-R discs and DVD-RW discs written to in Video
mode can be played on some normal DVD players.
They must however be finalized first. This process
fixes the content of the disc so that it can be read
by other DVD players as a DVD-Video disc.

Essential Information
What are “Recording Modes“?
Use of “Original“ and “Playlist“
DVD Recordings
This recorder offers three recording modes: VR
mode, Video mode and Data mode. Recordings on
DVD-R discs are always in Video mode. Record-
ings on DVD-RW discs can be in either VR or Video
mode. Files of memory cards, e.g. MP3 can be
recorded on discs in Data mode.
Throughout this manual you will often see the
words “Original“ and “Playlist“ used to describe
the actual content and the edited version.
• Original: Content refers to what is actually
recorded on the disc.
• Playlist: Content refers to the edited version of
the disc, i.e. how the original content should be
played.
Note: Fingerprints and scratches on the disc can
affect playback and/or recording. Take proper care
of your discs.
Disc Types and Recording Formats,
Modes and Settings
This recorder can play seven different types of DVD
disc:
DVD-R and DVD-RW Discs
DVD+R and DVD+RW Discs
• DVD-Video disc
• DVD-Audio disc
• DVD-RW disc
• DVD-R- disc
• DVD+RW disc

• Edited content can only be played after finaliza-
tion on some DVD players.
• DVD+R- disc
• DVD+R DL- disc.
A DVD-R disc is always formatted in “Video For-
mat“ - the same as prerecorded DVD-Video discs,
i.e. after finalization you can play a DVD-R disc on
a normal DVD player.
“Video Recording Format“ (VR) is the default
format for a DVD-RW disc. If required, the disc
can be changed to Video- or Data format through
subsequent reformatting (“Disc -➜ Formatting“ in
the main menu) (Caution! The contents of the disc
will be erased).
Video Mode Recording

(EQ, LQ, SQ, HQ), see page 24.
• Can be played on normal DVD players (after
finalization)
Recording on DVD+R / +R DL Discs
• 4 possible picture quality/recording time settings
(EQ, LQ, SQ, HQ), see page 24.
• Can be played on many DVD players that sup-
port the +R / +R DL format (where appropriate,
only after finalization).
• Limited editing of titles/chapters.
• Edited content cannot be played on normal
DVD players. (Hide, combined chapters, added
chapter markers etc.).
• Limited editing functions.
Note: The “Video mode“ DVD-Video format is a
new format for recording on DVD-R/RW discs that
was approved by the DVD Forum in 2000. For this
reason you may experience problems playing writa-
ble DVD discs on some players. Symptoms include
video artifacts, audio and/or video dropout and
playback stopping suddenly. Our company cannot
take any responsibility for problems playing discs
recorded on this recorder on other players.

Essential Information
If the disc format is Video Recording format, the
recording mode for the disc is referred to as “VR
mode“. However, the recording mode of a Video
format disc is referred to as “Video mode“ (Excep-
tion: a prerecorded DVD-Video disc which is not
recordable has no recording mode).
The recording modes determine the recording
and editing options for the whole disc. Amongst
other things they determine the picture quality and
how much space the recording will take up on the
disc.
Notes on Recording
the recording format (Video mode or VR mode)
before you start recording. See page 25 (Format-
ting) for more information.
• The displayed recording time is not exact as the
recorder uses variable bit-rate video compres-
sion. This means that the exact recording
time will depend on the material that is being
recorded.
• When recording a television broadcast the
remaining recording time may be shorter if the
reception is poor or the picture contains interfer-
ence.
• If you record only still pictures or audio, the
recording time may be longer.
• The displayed recording time and remaining time
may not always add up to the total length of
the disc.
• If you use a DVD-R disc you can continue
recording until the disc is full or until you finalize
it. Before you start recording check how much
recording time is available on the disc.
• If you use a DVD-RW disc in Video mode, the
available recording time will increase if you
delete the last title recorded on the disc.
• The “Delete Title“ function in the “Title List-
Original“ menu only hides the title, it does not
however delete it from the disc and does not
therefore increase the recording time (except if
you delete the last recorded title on a DVD-RW
disc in Video mode).
• The available recording time may be shorter fol-
lowing intensive editing of the disc.
• If you use a DVD-RW disc, make sure you select
• Overwrite recording is only possible on DVD+RW
discs.

Films on DVD can contain scenes that are
not suitable for children. For this reason discs can
contain child protection information that applies
to the whole disc or only to certain scenes on the
disc. The ratings are country-dependent.
The child lock function enables you to
prevent your children watching certain
discs or scenes.
Thanks to digital audio technology the DVD format
enables you to hear soundtracks in the most
accurate and realistic way possible. However, you
may wish to limit the dynamics (i.e. the difference
between the loudest and the quietest sounds). In
this way you can play a film with minimum volume
differences. For this purpose switch “Night Mode“
to “On“.
Off: If you select “Off“ the DTS signal is not emit-
ted from the DIGITAL OUT socket.

DVD-Audio is a new disk format based on the

the quality and functionality in the audio field.
DVD-A
Proceed as follows to select one of the contents on
a DVD-Audio Disk.
Multichannel audio provides a new music listening
experience. The stereo quality surpasses that of
Audio-CDs (192kHz in comparison with 44.1 kHz
for CDs; 24 Bit Sampling Rate instead of 16 Bit for
CDs).
A typical DVD-Audio Disk contains up to seven
times the capacity of an Audio-CD. The additional
space is used either for multichannel recordings or
for longer music recording times. Many DVD-Audio
Disks also contain screen texts such as background
information about the artist, song lyrics, biogra-
phies etc.. Some also contain photo galleries or
video clips.

Notes about JPEG files
Photo
- CD
Depending on the size and number of JPEG files,
it can take several minutes to read the disc. If
nothing appears on the screen after a few minutes,
some files are too large. Reduce the resolu-
tion of the JPEG files to less than 5 Megapixels
(2760x2048 Pixel) and burn the disc again.
There is no limit on the total number of files
and folders, but the total number of files in the
folder has to be fewer than 999.
Due to different recording formats or the con-
dition of the CD, some discs may be incompatible.
When using burning software to burn JPEG
files onto a CD-R, all the selected files must have
the “.jpg“ extension before they will be burned
onto the CD.

Data/memory card compatibility
Overview
• Keep memory cards out of reach of children. If
swallowed, a doctor is required immediately.
• Cards should not be touched with electrical
contacts, or the memory may be damaged.
• Only one card at a time may be plugged into the
right hand memory card slot.
• Memory cards cannot be formatted by Centros.
• The reading time of the memory card depends
on the number of files, the file size or resolution.
• If a folder on the memory card contains more
than 645 files, not all the files can be played.
• The card in the right hand slot has priority when
cards are inserted in both memory card slots. To
activate the card in the left hand memory slot,
remove the card from the right hand slot.
The images stored on the card must be in the
JPEG baseline DCF format. Other formats are not
displayed and are shown black in the list. There is a
maximum of 5 Megapixels. For further details about

can make up to seven recordings in a month. For
recording with nobody in attendance, the timer has
to know which signal sources (TV stations or from

you can use a DV cable as the audio, video, data
and control signals input / output to connect a
camcorder that has DV to this recorder. The i.LINK
interface complies with the IEEE 1394-1995
standard.
When you are using the DV IN socket, the follow-
ing messages may appear on the screen.
Recording from external components
Not connected to camcorder
The camcorder is not properly connected, or the
camcorder is switched off.
You can record from an external source, e.g. a
camcorder or video recorder connected to one of
the recorder‘s external inputs.
“i.LINK” and the “i.LINK”logo are trademarks.
Too many devices connected
This recorder‘s DV socket only supports the connec-
tion of one camcorder.

If you edit the original lists (for titles and chapters)
you change the content of the disc. If, for example,
you delete a title or a chapter, the title or chapter is
deleted from the disc.
However, if you edit a playlist you do not change
the content of the disc. Example: If you delete a
title from the playlist, you are simply telling the
DVD recorder not to play the title. However, it is
not deleted from the disc.
You can copy titles or chapters from the appropri-
ate original list into a pre-selected playlist and add
them as chapters at the end. (You can delete parts
you do not need at a later date. See “Deleting a
Part“ on page 56).
However, if you add chapter markers at a later
date to an item in the original list that has already
been copied into a playlist, these new chapter
markers are not automatically transferred to the
corresponding item in the playlist.
Chapter
You can insert a chapter marker anywhere in a
playlist or an original title during recording or
playback.
Once the chapters have been marked, the chapter
search can be used and chapters can be deleted,
combined and moved in the Chapter List-Original
or the Chapter List-Playlist.
You can insert up to 999 chapter markers.

Notes:
Finalized Video, DVD+R or DVD+RW discs can be
played on most DVD players.
• This function does not work with protected titles.
• If the new title is longer than the one to be over-
written, the next title will also be overwritten. If
however the next title is protected, the recording
will be stopped at the end of the first title to be
overwritten.
• If the recording length of the selected title is less
than 10 seconds, the next title will be overwrit-
ten. However, if the next title is protected the
recording will be stopped.
A few DVD players can also play prerecorded
finalized and unfinalized DVD-RW discs in VR
mode. Supported discs are listed in the manual
for each player. Finalizing “fixes“ the recordings
so that the discs can be played on normal DVD
players or computers with DVD-ROM drives. During
finalization of a disc in Video mode a disc menu is
created for navigating the disc. This is accessed by
pressing the DISC-M/
key.
Note: Unfinalized DVD+RW discs can be played on
normal DVD players provided that their recordings
have not been edited at a later date.
