Care and Safety Information
CAUTION!
Cleaning discs
High voltage! Do not open the
device. You run the risk of getting
an electric shock.
Some problems occur (frozen picture,
sound disruptions, picture distortions)
because the disc inside the unit is dirty.
To avoid these problems, discs should be
cleaned on a regular basis.
The machine does not contain any
user-serviceable parts. Please leave
all maintenance work to qualified
personnel.
To clean a disc, use a micro fibre cleaning
cloth and wipe the disc from the center
to the edge in a straight line.
Setup precautions
Finding a suitable location
– Place the set on a flat, hard and stable
surface. Do not place the set on a carpet.
– Do not position the set on top of
other equipment that might heat it up
(e.g., receiver or amplifier).
– Do not put anything above or under
the set (e.g., CDs, magazines).
– Install this unit near the AC outlet and
where the AC power plug can be
reached easily.
CAUTION!
Do not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,
or anti-static sprays intended for discs.
Since the optical unit (laser) of the
recorder operates at a higher power than
regular DVD or CD players, cleaning
CDs intended for DVD or CD players
may damage the optical unit (laser).
Therefore, refrain from using a cleaning
CD.
Space for ventilation
– Place the apparatus in a location with
adequate ventilation to prevent internal
heat build up. Allow at least 10 cm (4”)
clearance from the rear and the top of
the set and 5cm (2”) from the left and
right to prevent overheating.
About recycling

water and dust
These operating instructions have been
printed on non-polluting paper. This
electronic equipment contains a large
number of materials that can be recycled.
If you are disposing of an old machine,
please take it to a recycling center. Please
observe the local regulations regarding
disposal of packaging materials, exhausted
batteries, and old equipment.
– Apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing.
– Do not place any sources of danger
on the apparatus (e.g., liquid filled

Several different types of recordable
DVD discs can be used with this
recorder:
DVD+R
DVD+RW
DVD-R
DVD-RW
DVD+R DL
DVD RW (DVD Rewritable)
– Discs that are rewritable can be used
for multiple recordings once the existing
data is erased.
DVD R (DVD Recordable)
– Discs can only be used for a single
recording. Each new recording is always
added at the end of all previous
recordings as existing recordings cannot
be overwritten.
– Editing can be done on DVD R discs
as long as they have not been finalised.
– To play a DVD R on other DVD
player, it must be finalised (see the
chapter “Editing/ Finalising Recording –
Playing your recordings (DVD R) on
other DVD players”). After this is done,
no more data can be added to the disc.
DVD+R DL (DVD+R Double Layer)
– Like the DVD+R, these discs can only
be used for a single recording. The only
difference is the capacity- 8.5GB. It offers
two recordable layers on a single DVD
disc. The layers are accessible from the
same side of the disc, so recording can
occur completely uninterrupted.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of disc should I use for
recording?
You can only record on DVD R,
DVD RW or DVD+R DL discs. They are
compatible with DVD-Video players and
DVD-ROM drives in computers.
Can I copy a VHS tape or DVD
from an external player?
Yes, but only if the VHS tape or DVD is
not copy protected.
What are Titles and Chapters?
A DVD disc contains Titles and Chapters,
which are similar to the Titles and
Chapters of a book. A Title is often a
complete movie and is broken down into
Chapters, or individual scenes from the
movies.
What is the capacity of a DVD R/
+RW disc?
4.7GB, or equivalent to six CDs. You can
store only one hour of recordings on a
single disc at the highest quality (DVD
standard) and about 6 hours recording at
the lowest quality (VHS standard).

What is the difference between
DVD R and DVD RW?
DVD R is “recordable” and DVD RW is
“rewritable”. With a DVD R, you can
record multiple sessions on the same
disc, but when the disc is full, you cannot
record any more on the disc. The
DVD RW allows you to record over the
same disc repeatedly.
Chapter Chapter Chapter Chapter
chapter markers
Programmes are recorded as a single
title, it may consist of one chapter or a
few chapters within a title, depending on
the recording settings.
How do I check the remaining space
available on a recordable DVD disc?
In disc menu mode, press REC MODE on
the remote control to display the
remaining time available. (The length if
time available depends on the mode of
recording quality).
How do I set up Titles and
Chapters?
The recorder automatically creates a new
Title every time you start a new
recording. You can then add Chapters to
these recordings manually or have them
automatically inserted at 5-minute
intervals.
What is DV?
Using DV, also known as i.LINK, you can
connect a DV-equipped camcorder to
this recorder using a single DV cable for
input and output of audio, video, data and
control signals.
– This recorder is only compatible with
DV-format (DVC-SD) camcorders.
Digital satellite tuners and Digital VHS
video recorders are not compatible.
– You cannot connect more than one
DV camcorder at a time to this recorder.
– You cannot control this recorder from
external equipment connected via the DV
IN socket.
What does “finalising” a disc do?
Finalising a disc locks the disc so it can no
longer be recorded, only required for
DVD R. It will then be compatible with
any DVD player. To close a disc without
finalising it, simply stop recording and
eject the disc. You will still be able to
record on the disc if there is room for
more recordings.
