PRECAUTIONS  
Maintenance  
Servicing  
• Please refer to relevant topics on “TROUBLESHOOTING”  
on pages 96-99 before returning the product.  
• If this unit becomes inoperative, do not try to correct  
the problem by yourself. There are no user-serviceable  
parts inside. Turn off, unplug the power plug and  
please call our help line mentioned on the front page  
to locate an Authorized Service Center.  
Note  
• Remember to read the instructions along with the  
video head cleaner before use.  
• Clean video heads only when problems occur.  
IR signal check  
If the remote control does not work properly, you can test  
if the remote control sends out the infrared signal with  
AM radio or a digital camera (including built-in camera  
of cellular phone). It will help to define the cause of  
malfunction.  
Cleaning the cabinet  
• Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild  
detergent solution. Do not use a solution containing  
alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasive.  
•
With an AM radio:  
Cleaning discs  
• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning  
cloth. Wipe the disc from the center to out. Do not  
wipe in a circular motion.  
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,  
commercially available cleaners, detergent, abrasive  
cleaning agents or antistatic spray intended for analog  
records.  
Tune an AM radio to a station with no  
broadcasting. Press a button on remote  
control toward the radio. Sound will be  
fluttering when you press any key and the  
radio receives the signal. This means the  
remote control is working.  
•
With a digital camera (including built-in  
camera of cellular phone):  
Direct a digital camera to remote control,  
press and hold a button on remote control. If  
infrared light appears through digital camera,  
the remote control is working.  
Cleaning the disc lens  
• If this unit still does not perform properly  
although you refer to the relevant sections and to  
“TROUBLESHOOTING” in this owner's manual, the laser  
optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult your dealer  
or an Authorized Service Center for inspection and  
cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.

Disc handling  
• Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not  
adhere to the surfaces of the discs.  
• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is  
not used.  
Dolby Digital Recording  
“Dolby® Digital Recording enables consumers to record  
high-quality video with stereo sound on recordable  
DVD discs. The technology, when utilized instead of  
PCM recording, also saves recordable disc space, allow-  
ing for higher video resolution or extended recording  
time on each DVD. DVDs created using Dolby Digital  
Recording will play back on all DVD-video players.”  
Note: This is true when the players are compatible with  
actual recordable DVD discs.  
Auto head cleaning  
• Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or  
remove a cassette, so you can see a clear picture.  
• Playback picture may become blurred or interrupted  
while the TV program reception is clear. Dirt accumulated  
on the video heads after a long period of use, or the  
usage of rental or worn tapes can cause this problem. If  
a streaky or snowy picture appears during playback, the  
video heads in your unit may need to be cleaned.

Copyright protection system  
To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the  
display device (or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (high-bandwidth digital  
content protection system). HDCP is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication  
of the connected AV device. This unit supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display device  
(or AV amplifier) for more information.  
*HDMI: High Definition Multimedia Interface  
Note  
• Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices with an HDMI input may not operate  
properly with this unit.  
• When using an HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.  
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however,  
this unit cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI connector.  
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit  
length) maybe limited by the device that is connected.  
• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In  
connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.  
• When this unit’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-  
DVI converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.  
• When the power failure occurs, or when you unplug the unit, some problems in the HDMI setting might occur.  
Please check and set the HDMI setting again.

recording time may differ.  
• The audio and video quality gets poorer as the recording  
time becomes longer.  
• Each time [REC MODE] is pressed, recording mode and  
its allowed recording time will be displayed.

Note  
• This unit cannot record to CD-RW or CD-R.  
Performance of any other discs are not guaranteed.  
• All high definition pictures will be down converted to  
the standard definition pictures when they are  
recorded on this unit.  
• DVD+RW/+R, DVD-RW/-R and CD-RW/-R recorded on  
a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder may  
not be played back if the disc is damaged or dirty or  
if there is condensation on the player’s lens.  
• If you record a disc using a personal computer, even  
if it is recorded in a compatible format it may not be  
played back because of the settings of the  
application software used to create the disc. (Check  
with the software publisher for more detailed  
information.)  
• Since the recording is made by the VBR (variable bit  
rate) method, depending on the picture you are  
recording, the actual remaining time for recording  
may be a little shorter than the remaining time  
displayed on the TV screen.  
• You can play back DVD+RW on most DVD players  
without finalizing. However, if you have added or  
deleted chapters, or made chapters hidden, you  
must perform “Make Edits Compatible” before being  
able to see those effects on other units. (Refer to  
page 80 for more details.) To play back discs other  
than DVD+RW on other DVD players, you will need  
to finalize.  
Unrecordable Discs  
• DVD-RW recorded in the mode other than +VR is not  
recordable on this unit unless you erase all contents in  
the disc (refer to page 79).  
• DVD-R recorded in the mode other than +VR is not  
recordable on this unit.  
• You cannot record copy-protected program using  
this unit. (Copy-protected signal is included in DVD-  
video or some satellite broadcasts.)  
• You cannot record “copy-once only” program on  
DVD.

GLOSSARY  
Analog Audio  
PBC (playback control) (video CD only)  
An electrical signal that directly represents sound.  
Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical  
signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also  
“Digital Audio”.  
This function enables you to play back interactive  
software using a menu screen. See also “Video CD”.  
PCM (pulse code modulation)  
The most common system of encoding digital audio,  
found on CD and DAT. Excellent quality, but requires a  
lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital  
and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio  
recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with  
digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital and  
MPEG audio to PCM. See also “Digital Audio”.  
Aspect Ratio  
The width of a TV screen relative to its height.  
Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the TV screen  
is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the TV  
screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).  
Chapter (DVD only)  
Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a  
DVD is usually divided into chapters. See also “Title”.  
Progressive Scan (525p/480p)  
A type of display that does not split each frame into  
fields, and instead scans directly through all the scanlines  
of each frame in order. Progressive scan provides less  
flickering and higher image resolution than traditional  
(525i/480i) TV signals. Refer to page 90 for instructions on  
selective progressive scan mode.  
Component Video Out  
Each signal of luminance (Y) and component (PB/CB, PR/  
CR) is independent to output so that you can experience  
picture color as it is.  
Also, due to compatibility with progressive video  
(525p/480p), you can experience higher-density picture  
than that in interlace (525i/480i).  
Region Code  
Regions associate discs and players with particular areas  
of the world. This unit will only play back discs that have  
compatible region codes. You can find the region code  
of your unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are  
compatible with more than one region (or all regions).  
Digital Audio  
An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During  
recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals  
(44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog-  
to-digital converter, generating a stream of numbers.  
On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates  
an analog signal based on these numbers. See also  
“Sampling Frequency” and “Analog Audio”.  
Sampling Frequency  
The rate which sound is measured by a specified interval  
to turn into digital audio data. The numbers of sampling  
in one second defines as sampling frequency. The higher  
the rate, the better the sound quality.  
Dolby Digital  
The system to compress digital sound developed by  
Dolby Laboratories. It offers you sound of stereo(2ch) or  
multi channel audio.  
SAP (secondary audio program)  
Sub-audio channel which is delivered separately from  
main-audio channel. This audio channel is used as an  
alternate in bilingual broadcasting.  
Finalize  
S-Video Output  
It delivers independently each signal of color(C) and  
luminance(Y) to TV as video signals, so that higher-quality  
picture will be gained.  
To make DVD, which have been recorded on, possible to  
play back in DVD players. With this unit, it is possible to  
finalize DVD+R, DVD-RW, and DVD-R.  
HDMI™ (high definition multimedia interface)  
A digital interface between audio and video source. It can  
transmit component video, audio, and control signal with A collection of chapters on DVD. See also “Chapter”.  
one cable connection.  
Title (DVD only)  
Track  
MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3)  
MP3 is a method of compressing files. You can copy MP3  
files on CD-RW/-R from the computer and play back the  
files on this unit.  
Audio CD use tracks to divide up the content of a  
disc. The DVD equivalent is called a chapter. See also  
“Chapter”.  
Video CD  
A digital format for store video data in compact disc.
