IMPORTANT PRODUCT  
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
Electrical energy can perform many useful functions. But  
improper use can result in potential electrical shock or fire  
hazards. This product has been engineered and manufactured  
to assure your personal safety. In order not to defeat the built-in  
safeguards, observe the following basic rules for its installation,  
use and servicing.  
Operate your product only from the type of power source  
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of  
power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or  
local power company. If your product is intended to operate  
from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating  
instructions.  
3. Overloading  
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral  
convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or  
electric shock.  
ATTENTION:  
Follow and obey all warnings and instructions marked on your

PRECAUTION FOR Hard Disk Drive  
1.Before installing the recorder  
2.Before using the recorder  
When the power of the unit is on, the hard disc is  
constantly rotating at high speed.  
This recorder has a built-in hard disk drive, which is a  
device to read minute magnetic changes.  
The inside of the device is precision-built, which, when  
installing the recorder, requires you to note the following:  
This requires you to note the following:  
• DO NOT impart vibration or shock.  
If given a heavy shock, not only is the data recorded  
damaged but also the hard disk itself can be damaged.  
• DO NOT use the recorder in a location prone to  
vibration or dust.  
• DO NOT allow anything having strong magnetism or  
emitting strong electromagnetic waves (cell phones,  
etc.) near the recorder.  
• DO NOT place the recorder where difference in  
temperatures is large (condensation can occur), or  
where humidity is high.  
– When condensation occurs  
• DO NOT disconnect the power plug from the wall  
outlet when the power of the recorder is on.  
If the power supply is cut off while the hard disc is in  
operation, it can be damaged or the data stored on it  
may be damaged. Be sure to push the POWER button  
before turning off the power.  
Water droplets form on the hard disc or head drums  
inside, possibly causing hard disc and heads to be  
damaged.  
– About condensation  
When well-cooled beer is poured into a glass, water  
droplets often form around its outside. This phenom  
enon is called condensation.  
3.While using the recorder  
• DO NOT install the recorder where the cooling fans in  
its back may be blocked, or where the recorder may  
be closed in.  
When viewing a program by selecting HDD (Hard Disk  
Drive), there occurs a slight time lag relative to the actual  
program being broadcast. This is because pictures  
received are once stored on the hard disk, and then  
played back.  
• DO NOT use the recorder placed vertically.  
The time lag is about three seconds. If you turn the power  
on with the hard disk already selected, it will take about  
30 seconds before the pictures received appear on the  
screen. Up until then, any operation is disabled. But it is  
not a malfunction.

Auto channel set is performed next. The auto channel  
set function scans all the channels that are receivable  
by your recorder. It then automatically assigns each  
receivable channels to the CH +/– buttons. It skips  
non-receivable channels. During auto channel set the  
channel numbers are displayed as they are scanned  
and set.  
When Plug & Play has been completed successfully the  
correct time is displayed.  
If an incorrect time or “– –:– –” appears on the  
display panel, see “What To Do If Plug & Play Has  
Failed” below.  
IMPORTANT  
Don’t press any buttons on the recorder or remote while  
Plug & Play is in progress.  
If you perform Plug & Play successfully, there’s no need to

The current time (including  
AM/PM) is displayed.  
* If an incorrect time or “– –:– –” appears on the display panel, see “What To Do If Plug & Play Has Failed” below.  
INFORMATION  
If “AUTO CLOCK” is set to “ON” at the Clock Set screen on page 11, the clock will be adjusted automatically by the host  
channel every hour on the hour (except for 11:00 PM, midnight, 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM) by the incoming PBS channel clock  
setting data. (This automatic clock adjustment can only be performed when the recorder’s power is turned off. The clock will  
be adjusted on the hour based on the time displayed on the recorder, not on the actual real time.) The default setting of  
“AUTO CLOCK” is “ON”.  
If the memory backup fails, because of a power outage or because the AC was removed from the recorder, Plug & Play will be  
performed when power is restored to the recorder.  
What To Do If Plug & Play Has Failed  
If an incorrect time is displayed on the front display panel, you may be receiving the clock setting data of a PBS channel from  
an adjacent time zone, or an incorrect PBS channel from a cable TV system. In this case, perform the Semi-Auto (pg. 11) or  
Manual Clock Set (pg. 12) procedure. Auto channel set has already taken place and it need not be set again.  
If “- -:- -” appears on the display, your antenna cable may not be connected to the recorder or there may not be a Host PBS  
signal available in your area. Ensure that the antenna cable is connected correctly. Then power on and power off the recorder;  
the Plug & Play function will be automatically reactivated and “Auto” will be displayed on the recorder’s front panel. If Plug &  
Play is not performed but the antenna cable is connected correctly, perform the Manual Clock Set procedure (pg. 12). Auto  
channel set has not yet taken place, so please also perform the “Set Receivable Channels” procedure (pg. 13).

The following procedure is required if you receive satellite channels  
through a DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) Receiver. The Controller  
allows the recorder to automatically switch the DBS Receiver's  
channels during timer recording.  
DBS Receiver  
Control  
NOTES:  
The recorder can automatically change the DBS Receiver  
channels using the controller when the recorder has been  
programmed using Express Timer Programming (pg. 58).  
Because satellite programming does not use PlusCode; the  
Controller cannot change the DBS Receiver channels during  
the VCR Plus+ Timer Recording.  
Suggested Location  
Place the DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) receiver on top of the  
recorder. Attach the recorder’s Controller to the top of the  
recorder with the Controller’s transmitter pointed towards the  
DBS receiver's remote sensor.  
If a cable box is also used it is recommended that you  
connect the DBS receiver to your recorder’s A/V inputs and  
the cable box to your recorder’s antenna input.  
ATTENTION:  
The Controller can also control a cable box. If both a DBS  
receiver and a cable box are used, position the controller so its  
signal reaches the remote control sensors of both the DBS  
receiver and cable box.

About Your DBS Receiver  
This recorder has two separate methods to control your DBS  
Receiver.  
Connect to the CABLE BOX connector on your  
recorder.  
The recorder’s Wireless Remote Control Unit can control the  
power and channel functions of your DBS Receiver.  
For these functions, the need for a separate DBS Receiver  
Control Unit is eliminated.  
The recorder’s Controller can also control your DBS Receiver.  
This allows the recorder to change your DBS receiver's  
channel number during timer recording.

NOTES:  
TBC  
If you play back a tape recorded under poor TV reception  
Your recorder is equipped with the TBC (Time Base Corrector)  
that removes jitter from fluctuating video signals to deliver a  
stable picture even with old tapes and rental cassettes.  
The on/off of Digital 3-DNR (Noise Reduction) which cuts noise  
and enables clear picture reproduction is also linked to this  
function.  
condition, there may be cases where the picture becomes  
more stable with Digital TBC set to off.  
When Digital TBC is set to on, if you play back a tape where  
certain types of signals are recorded (using a PC or some  
character generators), the playback picture may be distorted.  
If this is the case, turn off Digital TBC.  
* The default setting is “ON”.  
Digital TBC and Video Stabilizer (pg. 45) cannot be used  
at the same time; if you turn on Digital TBC when "VIDEO  
STABILIZER" is set to "ON", Video Stabilizer will be automati-  
cally turned "OFF". Make sure Digital TBC is off when you  
want to use Video Stabilizer.  
We recommend that you use the TBC feature when...  
... playing back a tape recorded on a camcorder.  
... playing back a tape repeatedly used.  
... using this recorder as the player for editing.

RECORD PAUSE mode.  
Perform steps 1 3 on page 34 (“Simple Playback”) before  
continuing.

S-VHS ET  
This facility allows recording with S-VHS picture quality on  
VHS cassettes. You can play back those cassettes recorded  
in S-VHS ET on a VCR equipped with S-VHS ET.  
NOTES:  
Frequent still, frame-by-frame and slow-motion playback  
may damage the tape and cause picture degradation.  
With some tapes, better picture quality may not be  
obtained even with S-VHS ET recording. It is recom-  
mended that you do test record beforehand to make sure  
whether better results can be obtained.  
High Grade tapes are recommended for superior results.  
Make sure that “VIDEO CALIBRATION” is set to “ON” at  
the Function screen (pg. 47).  
During S-VHS ET playback, noise may appear depending  
on tape quality.  
Noise may appear during still, frame-by-frame and slow-  
motion playback.  
To obtain the highest quality recording and playback  
pictures over a longer period on this model, S-VHS  
recording on S-VHS tape is recommended.  
You can play back S-VHS ET recordings not only on this  
recorder but also on another VHS VCR equipped with S-  
VHS ET.  
* It is recommended to specifically label S-VHS ET  
recordings so you can easily distinguish them from  
regular VHS recordings.  
S-VHS ET recordings can also be played back on an S-  
VHS VCR or a VHS VCR equipped with SQPB (S-VHS  
QUASI PLAYBACK) function. However, there may be  
cases where S-VHS ET playback is not possible on a  
particular VCR.  
If the playback picture becomes blurred or interrupted,  
use a cleaning cassette.

Plus+® Setting  
Turn on the TV and select the AV mode.  
To ensure that the VCR Plus+Timer Recording operates correctly  
it is necessary to set the VCR Plus+ “Guide Channel Set” for  
each station. Please read the following information carefully.  
VCR Plus+ Guide Channel Matching  
VCR Plus+ programming system assigns a VCR Plus+ “Guide  
Channel” to broadcast and cable TV channels. These Guide  
Channel numbers are also called the VCR Plus+ Channel Codes.  
Most TV listings have a section, usually a chart, indicating the  
“Guide Channel” numbers assigned to each station. For accurate  
VCR Plus+ programming the VCR Plus+ Guide Channel number  
for each station should match the channel number on which it is  
received in your area.

Advantages Of S-VHS Editing  
S VIDEO IN  
AUDIO IN  
S-VHS allows you make high resolution video recordings  
when dubbing from one VCR to another.  
You can edit from VHS to S-VHS, from S-VHS to VHS, or  
from S-VHS to S-VHS.  
From VHS to S-VHS: Record VHS playback signals in the S-  
VHS mode. Although the picture quality is inherently  
limited by the original VHS source material, the edited tape  
has better picture quality than those made by VHS-to-VHS  
editing.  
From S-VHS to VHS: Because the picture quality of the  
source material is very high, the edited tape has better  
picture quality than those made by VHS-to-VHS editing.  
From S-VHS to S-VHS: A high resolution copy is made of  
a high resolution original S-VHS tape with minimal  
picture degradation. This is the preferred method of  
video dubbing.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS  
EN  
89  
PLAYBACK  
RECORDING  
Q. What happens if the end of the tape is reached  
during playback or search?  
Q. When I pause and then resume a recording, the end  
of the recording before the pause is overlapped by  
the new recording. Why does this happen?  
A. This is normal. It reduces distortion at the pause and  
resume points.  
A. The tape is automatically rewound to the beginning.  
Q. Can the VCR indefinitely remain in the still mode?  
A. No. It stops automatically after 5 minutes (VHS deck)  
to protect the heads.  
Q. Can the VCR indefinitely remain in the Record-Pause  
mode?  
A. No. The VCR automatically goes to its Stop mode  
after 5 minutes (VHS deck) to protect the heads.  
When paused during Instant Timer Recording (ITR),  
the VCR shuts off automatically after 5 minutes (VHS  
deck).  
Q. During search, still and frame-by-frame playback,  
the picture is intermittent. What’s the cause?  
A. Picture loss occurs when these types of playback are  
attempted with a tape recorded in LP mode. Pressing  
PLAY to return to normal playback will restore the  
picture.  
Q. What happens if the tape runs out during recording?  
A. The VCR automatically rewinds it to the beginning.  
Q. When returning from multi-speed search to normal  
playback, the picture is disturbed. Should I be  
concerned about this?  
TIMER RECORDING  
Q. REC and remain lit on the front display panel. Is  
there a problem?  
A. No, it is normal.  
A. No. This is a normal condition for a timer recording  
in progress.  
Q. When playing back programs that have been timer-  
recorded with consecutive times (such one program  
from 8:00 to 9:00 and another one from 9:00 to  
10:00), the picture and sound become momentarily  
distorted at the point where the first program ends  
and the second program begins. Is this a  
malfunction?  
Q. Can I program the timer while I’m watching a tape  
or a TV broadcast?  
A. Yes, but while you are setting the timer you won't see  
the tape's or broadcast program's picture as it is  
replaced by the on-screen menu. The audio from the  
tape or broadcast program will be present during the  
setting of the timer.  
A. No. This is normal.  
Q. Other than preventing further recording, what effect  
does removing the safety tab have?  
A. It disables marking of index codes.  
Q. Sometimes, during Index Search, the VCR can’t find  
the program I want to see. Why not?  
A. There may be index codes too close together.  
Q. During playback, on-screen operational indicators  
sometimes jitter. Why does this happen?  
A. If the condition of the tape being played back is not  
good, jittering of the video (including on-screen  
indicators) may occur.
