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 dirt 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.

If you stop the playback of a disc for which a resume point has  
already been memorized, the memory will be updated with the new  
resume point.  
After the unit has memorized the resume points for 30 discs,  
remembering a new resume point will cause the unit to delete the  
oldest memorized point. Stopping playback of a disc for which a  
resume point is already stored may change the order in which the  
points are stored. This may potentially change the order in which  
points are deleted.

CD/SVCD discs.  
It is possible to mark positions (up to 999 points) where you want to  
play back once again later, and start playback from a marked  
position. Marking onto DVD-RAM/RW/R discs when recording is  
helpful to locate a start point when you play back the discs later.

NOTES:  
You can programme this unit to timer-record, regardless of the disc  
remaining time. When the disc remaining time is not enough, the unit  
performs Relief Recording(pg. 46). To avoid this, make sure of  
the disc remaining time before setting timer-programming.  
(Example) If you programmed to timer-record for 60 minutes in SP  
mode on a 120-minute 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 checking 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.

timer settings.  
VPS/PDC Recording  
Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme Delivery  
Control) and VPS (Video Programme System) are services  
designed to assure safe, accurate timer recording. With this  
system, special code signals are transmitted together with the  
audio/video signals. These code signals control your video unit and  
have precedence over the advertised times you may have preset  
into the timer. This means that your unit will start and stop  
recording when the preset TV programmes actually start and end  
even if the broadcast time of a preset TV programme is  
changed.  
For the HDD deck  
When you select a mode other than ONCE, the space on the hard  
disk drive is saved for new recordings by overwriting previous  
recordings. To prevent loss of a needed recording, backup  
programmes you wish to save by dubbing them to DVD discs  
before overwriting previous recordings.  
ONCE (One Time Recording)  
In this mode a programme will not be automatically overwritten.  
WEEKLY (OVERWRITE) (Weekly Recording/Weekly Overwrite)  
When the set weekly programme is broadcast, the programme  
recorded last week is automatically deleted and overwritten by the  
new programme.  
NOTES:  
Make sure to press VPS/PDC# after completing timer programming  
procedure to activate the VPS/PDC recording function.  
When you use Manual Timer Programming, set the start time (VPS  
or PDC time) exactly as advertised in the TV listing. A different time  
than advertised will result in no recording.  
This weeks drama  
VPS/PDC recording is also possible when a satellite receiver or a  
cable system is connected to L-2 IN/DECODER connector on your  
unit.  
Overwritten  
Last weeks drama  
VPS/PDC recording is also possible via the L-1 IN/OUT connector.  
MONSUN (FOR A WEEK)/ MONSAT (FOR A WEEK)/ MONFRI  
(FOR A WEEK) (Daily Recording/Weekly Overwrite)  
When the set weekly programme is broadcast, the programme  
recorded on the same day last week is automatically deleted and  
overwritten by the new programme.  
How to check if the station being received transmits a VPS/  
PDC signal  
A Hold down DISPLAY for about 5 seconds. VPS/PDCappears  
blinking on the front display panel. If a VPS/PDC signal is detected  
from the station, VPS/PDCwill stop blinking. If no VPS/PDC  
signal is detected from the station, VPS/PDCwill blink at a slower  
rate.

instantly read no matter where it is on the disc), a play list includes  
information such as the timer counter for the playback start point
