Handling Discs
Handling Discs
If the surface of a disc that does not have or was removed from a cartridge is damaged,
scratches, dirt, dust or fingerprints can compromise the recording, editing or playback.
Such damage can also occur when the disc is inserted back into the cartridge.
Cleaning the DVD-RAM
Clean the disc with a special DVD-RAM cleaner (optional) and read
the cleaner instructions throughly before use.
Only play round discs.
Cleaning DVD-Videos, Video CDs and CDs
If the disc is dirty, wipe it with a moist and then a dry cloth.
Bad scratches and stubborn dirt may not be able to be removed so that
recording, editing or playback is still compromised even after cleaning.
The disc should then no longer be used. Do not use benzine, alcohol,
water, cleaning sprays, household cleaners or other solvents.
Do not touch the recording
surface of the disc.
DVD lens cleaner Compatible models
Only for Panasonic`s DVD recorders. Do NOT use this cleaner with any other Panasonic
DVD products or with the DVD products of any other companies since doing so may
damage the products.
Place the disc in the tray with the label facing upwards.
With double-sided discs, place the side that you want to play, with the label facing up.
Note:
Only the label side of the disc may be written on. Use a soft oil-based felt pen.
Do not use a ball-point pen or other hard writing instrument. Do not affix any
stickers or labels to the disc. The disc can warp and may become unusable.
When not in use, place the disc in its jewel case or cartridge
so that it does not become scratched or dirty.
Do not drop the disc, place them on top of each other
and never bang them. Do not place anything on top of the disc.
Protect the disc from dirt, dust, heat, humidity, direct sunlight or
strong temperature fluctuations (since condensation water can form).

This is useful when a programme over-runs the published times.
The station must be transmitting PDC and the exact time must be set for PDC to work.
The DVD Recorder detects whether a station is transmitting PDC only during the tuning
process. If PDC is introduced or discontinued by a station you will need to re-tune the DVD
Recorder before it becomes aware of this.
PDC transmissions are not currently nation-wide so please check with your local
