Some Do’s And Don’ts On The Safe Use Of Equipment
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any electrical equipment,
care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.
DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.
DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections between pieces of equipment)
are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug when making or
changing connections.
DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.
DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way^switch off,
withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has
a standby mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family knows how to do this. Special
arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of road safety. It is illegal to
watch television whilst driving.
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently damage your hearing.
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings. Overheating will cause damage and shorten
the life of the equipment.
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws^to ensure complete safety always fit the manufacturer’s approved
stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.
ABOVE ALL...
^ NEVER let anyone especially children push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the case^this could result in a fatal
electrical shock;
^ NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind^it is better to be safe than sorry!
Information On Reception Of Digital Transmissions
If your DR-M150 reports that no digital signals were found after auto-tuning, or if the number of channels found is fewer than
expected, this does not necessarily indicate a fault. Because of the nature of digital transmissions, there can be several external
causes for this.
The following information may help you determine the exact cause.
Digital transmissions are broadcast at much lower power and on different channels or different transmitters to analogue transmissions. This
may mean that you will require an aerial upgrade in order to receive them. Some smaller transmitters do not yet transmit digital signals at all.
This will give a good indication of the conditions in your area. A more detailed version of the postcode checker, which shows more details of
postcode checkers give a good indication of what is available but, due to local conditions, they cannot be 100% accurate.
If you require an aerial upgrade to receive digital transmissions, you should first contact your dealer who should be able to advise on a suitable
aerial. If this is not practical, you should choose an aerial installer who is a member of the Confederation of Aerial Industries (CAI). All CAI
members conform to a code of practice. You can search for your local CAI registered installer at: http://www.cai.org.uk/asp/installer.asp
If you have a shared communal aerial system, this may be designed to receive only the analogue transmissions in your area. You should
check with your landlord or local housing authority to see if your aerial system can be upgraded to receive digital transmissions.
Please note that unless you are located very close to the transmitter, it is very unlikely that you will be able to receive digital transmissions
reliably with an indoor aerial.
If you have any other questions regarding the reception of digital transmissions, please call JVC Customer Services on 0870-330-5000.

Care And Handling Of Discs
How to handle discs
When handling a disc, do not
touch the surface of the disc.
Since discs are made of
plastic, they are easily
damaged. If a disc gets dirty,
dusty, scratched or warped, the
images and sound will not be
picked up correctly, and such a
disc may cause the unit to malfunction.
Label side:
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesives
on its surface.
Recording side:
Make sure that discs are not scratched and dirty on the recording
side before use. Scratches and dirt on the recording side of a disc
may hinder proper playback and recording. Also be careful that a
DVD-RAM disc may get scratched or dirty when removed from
cartridge then put back in after use.
Storage:
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on
top of one another without their protective cases, they can be
damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be
exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or
temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!
Maintenance of discs:
If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering
to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving
from the centre outwards.
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth
moistened with water. Never use record
cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any anti-static
agents.
CAUTION:
Sometimes during playback, noise may appear or images may
be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not be up
to industry standards.)
These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction
of the unit.

NOTES:
● You can programme this unit to timer record, regardless of the
disc remaining time. When the disc remaining time is not enough,
it is not possible to record until the end of the timer programme.
(Example) If you programmed to timer record for 60 minutes in
SP mode on a 120 minutes disc, the disc remaining time would
be 30 minutes in XP mode, 60 minutes in SP mode, 120 minutes
in LP mode, 180 minutes in EP mode, and 240 minutes in FR480
mode. Timer recording will not complete beyond these remaining
times.
● The maximum recording time of FR (JUST) mode is the same as
the recording time of FR480 mode. When timer programming a
long programme in FR (JUST) mode on a disc whose remaining
time is short, it is recommended to check the disc remaining time
in FR480 mode to see if the remaining time is enough for the
programme.
● Even if more than one programme are timer programmed in FR
(JUST) mode, only the first one is recorded.
● In order to ensure that the recording fits on the disc, this feature
may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the disc.
● There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on
the disc where the unit switches the mode.
