Introduction
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
13. LIGHTNING
To protect your unit from a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the
unit due to lightning and power line surges.
14. POWER LINES
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric
light or power circuits, or where it can fall onto or against such power lines or circuits. When installing an
outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits,
as contact with them might be fatal.
15. OVERLOADING
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
16. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY
Do not push objects through any openings in this unit, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short
out parts that could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any type of liquid into the unit.
17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the unit, be sure the antenna or cable system is
grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges, Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast
and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for
the grounding electrode.

18. SERVICING
Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
For example:
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the unit.
c. If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the unit does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that
are covered by the operating instructions, as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage
and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the unit to its normal operation.
e. If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
f . When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance, this indicates a need for service.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
19. REPLACEMENT PARTS
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by
the manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
20. SAFETY CHECK
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this unit, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to
determine that the unit is in proper operating condition.
21. HEAT
The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
22. DISC TRAY
Keep your fingers well clear of the disc tray as it is closing. It may cause serious personal injury.
23. CONNECTING
When you connect the product to other equipment, turn off the power and unplug all of the equipment from
the wall outlet. Failure to do so may cause a product damage. Read the owner's manual of the other equip-
ment carefully and follow the instructions when making any connections.
24. LASER BEAM
Do not look into the opening of the disc tray or ventilation opening of the product to see the source of the
laser beam. It may cause sight damage.
25. DISC
Do not use a cracked, deformed, or repaired disc. These discs are easily broken and may cause serious
personal injury and product malfunction.
26. NOTE TO CABLE TV SYSTEM INSTALLER
This reminder is provided to call the Cable TV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be con-
nected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
CONDENSATION
Moisture will form in the operating section of the DVD/VCR if the unit is brought from cool surroundings into a warm
room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the DVD/VCR’s performance will be
impaired.
To prevent this, let the DVD/VCR stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or make
sure that the room temperature rises gradually.
Condensation may also form during the summer if the DVD/VCR is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner.
In such cases, change the location of the DVD/VCR.

Disc
Title/Chapter/Track
When recording in the Video mode
A DVD-Video has large partitions called “Titles”, and
smaller partitions within them called “Chapters”.
A music CD has other partitions called “Tracks”.A num-
ber is allotted to each partition and these numbers are
called “title numbers”, “chapter numbers”or “track num-
bers”.
When a disc recorded in the Video mode is finalized, it
cannot be recorded onto any more. Therefore, before
finalization, be sure to perform all desired recording.
After finalization, a title list that can be used by the DVD
player is automatically created.
NOTES:

• The finalization process may require from a few min-
utes up to 1 hour depending on the disc type and the
amount of free space on the disc.

• A DVD-RW Ver.1.1/1.2 recorded in the Video mode
cannot be recorded or edited after finalization, but if
you format the disc by erasing all the content, you
can again record on this disc.

Playback). Some of the functions described in this
owner’s manual may not work with some discs.
• The title, chapter and track are numbered, but some
discs may not record the numbers.
• Recording on DVD-R/RW in theVideo mode is a new
standard approved at the 2000 DVD forum. Confor-
mity to this standard varies with each DVD player
manufacturer. Some models of DVD player or DVD-
ROM drive, therefore, will not playback recorded vid-
eos.

• When a DVD-RAM disc or a DVD-R disc created
on this recorder is used (e.g., insertion, playback,
recording or editing) in another DVD player, recorder
or personal computer drive.
• When a DVD-RAM disc or a DVD-R disc that is used
in the manner described in the immediately preced-
ing bullet point is used again in this recorder.
• When a DVD-RAM disc or a DVD-R disc that was
recorded in another DVD recorder, or in a personal
computer drive is used in this recorder.
Disc playback in other players
DVD-RW/R recorded in this unit can be finalized. The
disc can be played back in other players that can
playback DVD-RW and DVD-R.
For more information on finalization, see “FINALIZE” in
“Setting the disc” (page 28).
When recording in the VR mode
Even if a DVD-RW disc recorded in the VR mode is
finalized, you can record or edit by cancelling the
finalization. (See “UNDO FINALIZE” on page 29).
When you playback the disc with another player, make
sure that the DVD player supports DVD-RW.

expected on other DVD players, recorders or per-
sonal computer drives.

This DVD/VCR requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal
playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different types
of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files) and these require certain pre-
existing conditions (see above) to ensure compatible playback. Because this area of technology is still
evolving, Toshiba cannot guarantee that all recordable discs will produce optimal playback quality. The
technical criteria set forth in this owner’s manual are meant only as a guide.
Please be advised that you must obtain permission from the applicable copyright owners to download
copyrighted content, including music files, in any format, including the MP3 and WMA formats, prior to the
downloading thereof. Toshiba has no right to grant and does not grant permission to download any

Recording
Read this before recording on disc
Types of disc
This section explains what you must
know to record onto a disc. Read it
before attempting to record.
You can use DVD-RAM, DVD-RW and DVD-R discs to record video.
DVD-RAM/-RW (VR mode)
• This mode involves mutiple editing functions.
• Various editing options using a created Playlist.
NOTE:
Should a power failure occur or the
AC cord plug be disconnected while
recording, editing, initializing, finaliz-
ing or any other function, the program
being recorded will be lost or the disc
may not be playable. Manufacturer
cannot guarantee against loss of pro-
gram or disc should this occur. To
start recording again, re-format the
disc or use a new disc and follow the
instruction on recording.
DVD-RW/-R (Video mode)
• Simple editing (renaming titles).
For more information on recording format, see “Recording for-
mat” (page 10).
Recording modes
There are 4 modes for recording on disc. Recording time and quality
vary according to mode.
Recording

XP
Recording time
Approx. 60 min
Quality
Can record high quality images.
Can record normal quality images.
SP
Approx. 120 min
Quality deteriorates slightly, but
recording time is longer.
NOTES:
Recording time can change for the
following reasons.
LP
Approx. 240 min
Recording time is prioritized over
quality.
SLP
Approx. 360 min
• When image quality is poor as dur-
ing poor TV reception.
• Recording time above is based on a 4.7GB disc.
• When recording on a disc that has
been edited before.
• When the video is followed with re-
cordings of still images or just au-
dio.
Since DVD recording is performed using VBR (Variable Bit Rate), re-
cording time varies according to the recorded content.
To know the correct recording time, stop recording and check the me-
dia information. (See page 36.)
Disc remaining time
VR mode
• Recording is possible as long as there is available space on the disc.
(Finalized discs can be recorded by cancelling the finalization, see
“UNDO FINALIZE” on page 29.)
• Erasing unnecessary title frees up available space on the disc.(Titles
can be erased from finalized discs by first undoing the finalization.
See “UNDO FINALIZE” on page 29.)
NOTE:
Video mode
Because of characteristics peculiar
to digital video compression technol-
ogy, scenes with fast motion may
appear as a matrix of larger blocks.
• Up until the disc is finalized, recording is possible as long as there is
available space on the disc. (Once the disc has been finalized, addi-
tional recording and erasing are not possible.)
• The remaining time cannot be increased, nor can recorded title be
overwritten.
The unauthorized recording, use,
distribution, or revision of television
programs, videotapes, DVDs and
other materials, is prohibited under
the Copyright Laws of the United
States and other countries, and
may subject you to civil and/or
criminal liability.
• Titles cannot be erased nor can recorded titles be overwritten.

camera allow unrestricted recording. There are no restrictions on re-
cording.
“Copy Never” (recording prohibited)
• Images that contain the recording prohibited signal cannot be re-
corded.
• If the recording prohibited signal appears halfway through an image
you are recording, recording is paused at that instant. When the re-
cording prohibited signal ends, recording resumes.
• This unit incorporates a built-in copy guard. It cannot record soft-
ware or broadcasted programs that contain copy restriction signals
designed to protect copyright, etc.
“Copy Once” (one-time recordable)
Programs (images) that contain the one-time recordable signal can be
recorded only in the VR mode using a DVD-RW disc that supports

Editing the disc
Editing the disc
This section explains how to edit
the recorded contents on DVD-
RWs. However, the items that you
can edit vary with the recording
formats. In VR mode, you can edit
various title menus, whereas in
Video mode, you can edit only a
few items.
Title menu
When the content is recorded, a title name that includes the date, time,
channel number and other information is created automatically.
The title menu can be used when you playback after confirming the
contents (see page 35), or when you check the contents recorded on
the disc.
Original title
The titles explained above are called original titles; these will be added
with every recording. In VR mode you can do various editing opera-
tions i.e., you can rename the titles or add the chapter marks. In addi-
tion, you can erase the unnecessary titles to increase the disc space.
Playlist
You can create a playlist based on the original titles.
You can combine or erase undesired scenes.
If you create a playlist, it will become the primary list used by the disc.
If you create a playlist to customize your viewing preferences, and
choose to delete it, the original titles will not be affected. It is recom-
mended to create and edit the playlist to prevent important titles from
being erased accidentally.
If you create a playlist, both the original title and playlist will be dis-
played on the title menu.
Editable items
The items that can be edited are different between original title and
playlist. For the disc in Video mode, only the title name can be edited.
The items can be edited in each are as follows:

Video head cleaning
Video head clogging
The video heads are the means by which the DVD/VCR reads the picture from the tape during playback. In the
unlikely event that the heads become dirty enough to be clogged, no picture will be played back.This can easily be
determined if, during playback of a known good tape, there is good sound, but no picture (picture is extremely
snowy). If this is the case, have the DVD/VCR checked by qualified service personnel.
NOTES: • DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE
REAR COVER.
• Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to produce clear pictures.
• To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.
