Precautions (cont’d)
Maintenance
SERVICING
• Please refer to relevant topics on Troubleshooting on pages 77-80 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.
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.
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 analogue records.
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.
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
the unit may need to be cleaned.
1.Please visit your local Audio/Video store and purchase a good quality VHS Video Head Cleaner.
2.If a Video Head Cleaner does not solve the problem, please call our help line mentioned on the
front page to locate an Authorized Service Center.
NOTES:
• 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.
• With an AM radio:
Tune an AM radio to a band 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 unit 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 is working.

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 record-
able disc space, allowing 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.

Note
Recordable disc
• This recorder cannot record CD-RW or CD-R
discs.
• We strongly recommend for good recording
quality:
• DVD+RW/R, DVD-RW/R and CD-RW/R discs
recorded on a personal computer or a DVD or
CD recorder may not play if the disc is damaged
or dirty or if there is dirt of condensation on the
player’s lens.
• If you record a disc using a personal computer,
even if it is recorded in a compatible format, there
are cases in which it may not play because of the
settings of the application software used to create
the disc. (Check with the software publisher for
more detailed information.)

• DVD+RW 1x-4x, DVD+R 1x-16x, DVD-RW 4x and
DVD-R 8x/16x discs can be used in this recorder.
• Discs that have been tested and are proven to be
compatible with this recorder:
VERBATIM DVD+RW 4x VERBATIM DVD+R 8x
• DVD-RW/R discs recorded in Video mode cannot be
recorded additionally using the unit.
VERBATIM DVD-RW 2x VERBATIM DVD-R 8x
JVC DVD-RW 4x
MAXELL DVD-R 16x
• Since the recording is made by the variable bit rate
(VBR) 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 OSD.
• You can play DVD+RW in most DVD players
without finalizing. To play discs other than
DVD+RW in other DVD players, you will need to
finalize.
• You cannot record copy-protected video using
this unit. (Copy-protected video includes DVD-
Video discs and some satellite broadcasts.)
• You cannot record videos that includes “copy-
once only” signal.

Timer Recording (cont’d)
Hints for Timer Recording
• If there is a power failure or this unit has been unplugged for more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all timer settings
will be lost.
• If a recordable disc is not on the tray or an unrecordable disc is on the tray, “DVD” on the front panel display flashes and
Timer Recording cannot be performed. In some cases, “DVD” flashes momentarily around the Timer starting time as the unit
attempts to record. Please insert a recordable disc.
• If a videotape with a record tab is not in the cassette compartment or there is no videotape in the compartment, “VCR” on the
front panel display flashes and timer recording cannot be performed. Please insert a recordable videotape.
• If you press [STANDBY-ON] and turn on the unit while either DVD or VCR is in timer standby mode,
disappears. In this
case, you cannot change the mode between DVD and VCR. You cannot change any settings using [SETUP] or edit discs.
• After step 9 on page 30, you can turn on the power to use the side of the unit that is free from Timer Recording (either
DVD or VCR) for another recording by pressing [STANDBY-ON] during timer standby. During Timer Recording, press
[SOURCE] on the front panel, or [DVD ] or [VCR ] on the remote control. Note that you cannot change channels after
Timer Recording started. You can use all recording/recording pause/OTR functions. However, the unit will begin receiving
channel signals for Timer Recording 2 minutes before the programmed starting time. Unless the program that you are
currently recording using the Timer Recording free side of the unit is on the same channel with the one programmed for Timer
Recording, the unit prioritizes Timer Recording and the current recording will be automatically stopped. If the channels set for
Timer recording and the current recording are same, the current recording will continue without interruption.
• When all the Timer Recording is completed,
then press [PLAY B] or [OPEN/CLOSE A].
flashes. To play or eject the recorded disc, press [STANDBY-ON] first, and
• If both DVD and VCR are timer programmed, you cannot use any functions for either unit during timer standby or Timer
Recording. If you want to use functions other than recording under such condition, cancel Timer Recording by pressing
[TIMER SET] during timer standby or stop recording by pressing [STOP C] on the front panel during Timer Recording.
• When the starting and ending time are same, the recording will be set for 24 hours. When the disc or tape reaches the end
during the recording, the unit turns itself off. If you want to continue the recording, cancel timer standby by pressing
[TIMER SET], insert a new disc or tape, and then press [TIMER SET] again. If you are recording on a tape, the unit
automatically ejects the tape when it reaches the end. You can continue the recording by inserting a new tape.
• When the programmed starting and ending time are earlier than the current time, the setting will not be accepted and be
cleared for redoing.
• If the starting time is earlier and the ending time is later than the current time, the recording will start right after you press [TIMER SET].
• The Timer Recording cannot be performed in DVD and VCR at the same time. If you set two programming with the same
channel and time in both units, the program with a lower program number will be recorded.
The priority of overlapped settings
This unit records the programs according to priority if the timer programmings are overlapped. The timer programming
set previously has priority.
A Timer Recording of lower priority will be canceled, start from the middle or stop on the way.

sound is measured at discrete inter-
vals (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 ana-
log signal based on these numbers.
See also Sampling frequency and
Analog audio.
Track

content of a disc. The DVD equiva-
lent is called a chapter. See also
Chapter.
Video CD
The contents of a Video CD. When
playing back a Video CD with the
PBC function, the title menu will
appear automatically.
