WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.

The voltage of the available power supply differs according to country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the area where this unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz) written on the rear panel. Turning off the standby button does not shut off the power completely. So the power cord should be removed from the AC outlet when the unit is not used for a prolonged time.

3. Do not touch this unit with wet hands

Do not handle this unit or power cord when your hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take this unit to an authorized service center for inspection.

4. Location of this unit

Place this unit in a well-ventilated location. Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of this unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation is blocked, this unit may overheat and malfunction. Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heating units as this unit’s internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of the pickup. Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the unit on or above one of the speakers. Be sure this unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place it on its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction. Do not place near tuners or TV sets. If placed next to a TV or tuner, it may cause reception interference resulting in some noise in the TV or tuner output.

5. Care

From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.

6. Points to remember

If this unit is brought from a cold environment to a warm one or is in a cold room that is quickly heated, condensation may form on the pickup, preventing proper operation. In this case, remove the disc and leave the power ON for about one hour to remove the condensation. When transporting this unit, be careful not to bump it.

Main Features

■ Encoding the music files on an audio CD in

(*1)

MP3 format

and decoding the MP3 music

files

• You can record tracks on an audio CD in MP3 format. The tracks are compressed approximately 1/10 in data size when using the standard 128kbps bit rate

(*2)

• Available encoding bit rates are no compression (PCM), 96kbps, 128kbps, and 192kbps.

• You can display and edit the ID3 tag(*3) information including song title, album title and artist name.

• You can record from the built-in CD player, digital input and analog input. In addition, you can record (transfer) the tracks stored on your PC through USB interface.

• Sorting feature using the file information including ID3 tags is available for various playback modes.

• You can mark any tracks you like as your favorites and play only the favorite tracks.

■ Playing audio CDs and CD-Rs

• You can play CD-Rs containing audio data in MP3 format as well as ordinary audio CDs.

• You can copy the MP3 files recorded on a CD-R to the internal hard disk drive (HDD) 10 times faster than when recording tracks from an audio CD (when using the QUICK REC feature).

*1 MP3

An audio compression format that is part of MPEG1 image compression technology.

*2 bit rate

The maximum amount of data that can be processed by a system per second. Bit is the minimum unit expressed by 0 or 1 in digital data. kbps is the abbreviation of kilobit per second. The larger the bit rate is used, the greater the encoded file size is.

ID3 tag

The area for storing character information on MP3 file. You can add up to 128 bytes of character information such as album title and artist name. Each information will be limited to 30 characters long. The information entered in the ID3 tag area can be displayed and edited on the player which supports ID3 tag.

■ Longer hours recording with the internal hard disk drive (HDD)

• FDB (Fluid Dynamic Bearing) motor employed in the HDD section has the lowest vibration characteristics suited for motor-driven audio devices. This enables stability in playback.

• You can record and play MP3 music files many hours using the HDD. Approximately 700 hours of music can be recorded onto the 40GB HDD when using standard 128kbps bit rate.

• Timer recording feature allows you to record long hour programs even while you ara away from the HDR-1.

■ Transferring music files from PC to the HDR-1

Notes on CD and the internal hard disk drive

Notes on discs

■ Notes on playing discs

Use the discs compatible with IEC standards such as the CD with the logo (right) printed on it. You can also use CD-Rs containing MP3 audio data.

Do not play CD-Rs intended for computer use or non-audio compact discs. Doing so may cause high-pitched noises or other unpredictable results that may damage speakers, amplifiers, and other connected components.

Never use heart-shaped, octagonal, or other special shaped discs as they may damage the internal mechanisms of the HDR-1.

■ Handling discs

Be careful not to touch the data side of the disc (the side that does not have printing on it). Always hold discs by the edges or by using the hole in the middle.

■ Cautions for disc storage

Do not store discs in locations exposed to direct sunlight, near heat emitting devices, and other locations of excessive heat, or locations of extremely low temperatures. Also, always store discs properly in their protective cases.

Note on the internal hard disk drive

■ Handling the hard disk drive

Do not shake or carry around the HDR-1 while playing the tracks recorded on the hard disc drive. Doing so may damage the internal hard disk drive.

■ Notes on the data and track recorded on

Never place labels or stickers on the data side or label side of the discs. Also, do not write on the discs or allow them to become scratched.

■ Cautions when using rented compact discs

Do not use discs that have cellophane tape attached to them or rental compact discs that have rental labels attached. If the tape is sticking out or peeling off, the disc may not be able to be ejected and the HDR-1 may become damaged.

■ Cleaning

Dirt and contaminants on discs can obstruct the pickup of the signals and lead to deterioration the sound. When dirty, clean the data side with a soft dry cloth, wiping from the inside of the disc toward the outside.

If the dirt is excessive, soak the cloth in water, wring it out, and then wipe the disc surface clean. Next, using a soft dry cloth, wipe the moisture form the disc surface. Do not use conventional record cleaners or antistatic agents. Also, never use benzene, thinners, or other volatile agents as they may damage the disc surface.

the HDR-1’s HDD

Onkyo shall not be liable for the loss of the data and tracks recorded on the HDR-1’s HDD, regardless of the cause of failure or trouble.

If the HDD is replaced with the new one or initialized at HDR-1’s repair, all the data and tracks stored on the HDD will be lost. Onkyo shall not be liable for any damages resulting from the loss of the data and tracks on the HDD.

If you want to avoid the loss of the data and tracks, save the original CDs and store the original data and tracks on other media.

Condensation

When moving the HDR-1 from a cold location to a hot location, when quickly heating a cold location with a furnace, or other similar situation, condensation may occur. This may not only cause improper operation of the device, but may also damage the discs and components. If condensation has occurred, leave the HDR-1 until the condensation disappears without turning the power on. Using the HDR-1 with the condensation occurred may cause failure. If you will not use the HDR-1, then eject any disc inside.

Creating a play list

■ Understanding the indication on play lists

When creating a play list

When you create a play list for the first time, “1P New” appears. “1P” means the first play list and “New” means that the play list

contains no tracks. For subsequent play lists, the indication will be “2P New” and so on.

“2P” means the second play list and “New” means that the play list contains no tracks.

* If you delete a play list, the play list number is reserved until a

new play list is created. The renumbering for play list numbers is not performed. When you create a subsequent play list, the reserved play list number appears as a new play list number.

For example, if you have play lists No.1 through No.10 and delete the play list No.3, when you create a play list next time, “3P New” appears.

When adding tracks to a play list

When you add a track to an existing play list, for example, the first play list containing 5 tracks, the indication will be “1P 6T”.

“1P” means the first play list and “6T” means the position to which you are going to add a track. If you want to change the order of playing tracks, change the track number.

* If you delete a track in a play list, the track number for the next

track of the deleted track is receded, and then the rest of the tracks in the play list are renumbered accordingly. For example, when you register 10 tracks (No.1 through No.10) in the first play list and you delete the track No.3, the track No.4 is receded to No.3 and the rest of the tracks in the play list is renumbered accordingly, resulting in 9 tracks in the play list.
