Notes on DVDs and Video CDs  
Some playback operations of DVDs and Video CDs  
may be intentionally fixed by software manufacturers.  
As this unit plays DVDs and Video CDs according to  
disc content designed by the software manufacturer,  
some playback features of the unit may not be avail-  
able, or other functions may be added.  
Refer also to the instructions applied with the DVDs and  
Video CDs. Some DVDs made for business purposes  
may not be played on the unit.  
Types of video CDs  
There are two types of video CDs:  
Video CDs equipped with PBC (Version 2.0)  
PBC (Playback control) functions allow you to interact  
with the system via menus, search functions, or other  
typical computer-like operations. Moreover, still pictures  
of high resolution can be played if they are included in  
the disc.  
Regional code of the DVD player and DVDs  
This DVD player is designed and manufactured  
for playback of region “2” encoded DVD soft-  
ware. The region code on the labels of some DVD discs  
indicates which type of player can play those discs. This  
unit can play only DVD discs labeled “2” or “ALL”. If you  
try to play any other discs, the message “Check Regional  
Code” will appear on the TV screen. Some DVD discs  
may not have a region code label even though their  
playback is prohibited by area limits.  
Video CDs not equipped with PBC (Version 1.1)  
Operated in the same way as audio CDs, these discs  
allow playback of video pictures as well as sound, but  
they are not equipped with PBC.

Before Use (Contd)  
Precautions  
Storing discs  
After playing, store the disc in its case.  
Handling the unit  
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of  
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun-  
light, as there may be a considerable temperature  
increase inside the car.  
When shipping the unit  
The original shipping carton and packing materials  
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the  
unit as it was originally packed at the factory.  
Cleaning discs  
When setting the unit  
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic-  
ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean  
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen-  
ter out.  
The picture and sound of a nearby TV or radio may be  
distorted during playback. In this case, position the unit  
away from the TV or radio, or turn off the unit after  
removing the disc.  
To keep the surface clean  
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,  
near the unit. Do not leave rubber of plastic products in  
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will  
leave marks on the surface.  
Cleaning the unit  
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,  
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static  
spray intended for older vinyl records.  
To clean the cabinet  
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,  
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent  
solution. Do not use strong solvents, such as alcohol,  
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface  
of the unit.

For the following steps we assume that you have just  
connected your video recorder for the very first time.  
To make tuning TV stations an easy task your VCR  
incorporates the Automatic Channel Memory  
System (ACMS). This system will automatically tune  
and store TV channels to your VCR. While this is  
happening the clock (date & time) in the video recorder  
will be set automatically.

Press i to store your TV stations and remove the

The ACMS system relies on signals transmitted by the TV  
Station, for auto clock setting and station identification. If  
the TV broadcast signal is weak or fluctuates your VCR  
may not detect the necessary information and will be  
unable to identify station names and sort them correctly.  
To overcome this problem please turn to the MANUAL  
TUNING section of this book on page 15.  
Make sure that you have correctly installed your  
VCR and tuned a video channel on your TV as  
described earlier in this book.

The Programme Delivery Control (PDC) system  
adjusts the start and end times of a timer record event.  
This can be particularly useful with sports events which  
may run over into extra time. The PDC signal is trans-  
mitted by the broadcaster and this controls your video  
recorder’s timer.  
Currently only a limited number of TV companies  
transmit PDC signals.  
Please make sure that when recording from chan-  
nels that do not broadcast PDC that you turn PDC  
OFF.

Notes on MP3 Discs

DVD  
CD  
About MP3  
This player memorizes the last condition for the last  
disc you have watched. Settings remain in memory  
even if you remove the disc from the player or switch off  
the player. If you load a disc that has its settings memo-  
rized, the latest stop position is automatically recalled.  
An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using  
MPEG1, the audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call  
files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.  
The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file  
extension other than “.mp3”.  
The player can not read a fake MP3 file that has a  
file extension “.mp3”.  
Notes  
– Settings are stored in memory for use any time.  
– This player does not memorize settings of a disc if  
you switch off the player before commencing to play  
it.  
MP3 Disc compatibility with this player is  
limited as follows:  
1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz  
2. Bit rate/ within 32 - 320kbps  
3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”  
4. If you record MP3 files using the software which  
cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example “Direct-  
CD” etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We  
therefore recommend that you use “Easy-CD  
Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.  
5. A single session disc requires MP3 files in the first  
track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it can-  
not playback MP3 files. If you wish to playback MP3  
files, format all the data in the disc or use a new  
one.  
Screen Saver  
The screen saver picture appears when you leave the  
DVD Player in stop mode for about five minutes.
