conditions where condensation may occur, disconnect
the unit’s power plug from the wall and keep it
disconnected for a few hours to let the moisture dry, then
turn on the unit.
TTENTION:
To mobile phone users:
Using a mobile phone in the vicinity of the unit may

● Recording and playback may not be performed with some
DVD-RAM, DVD-R/-RW, and CD-R/-RW discs depending on
the characteristics and condition of the disc used, leading to
unsatisfactory results. Using discs manufactured by JVC is
recommended since they have been tested to be compatible
with this unit.
DVD-RAM Discs
It is only possible to use discs which conform with DVD-RAM
standard Version 2.0 or 2.1.
● It is impossible to record on DVD-RAM discs which do not
conform to this standard. If you use a disc formatted under a

recorded or edited on the devices from other manufacturers or
on a PC, or if it has far too many titles, or if there is very little
available capacity remaining on the disc.
● Some DVD-RAM discs are contained in a cartridge. This unit
cannot handle this type of disc. Remove the disc from the
cartridge (only discs with a removable cartridge); or the use of
DVD-RAM discs not contained in a cartridge is recommended.
● DVD-RAM discs recorded on this unit cannot be played back
on an incompatible DVD player.
● It is possible to record copy-once programmes of digital
broadcasts only onto 4.7/9.4 GB DVD-RAM discs (2.8 GB

● Suitable when keeping a recorded disc for a long time.
File Structure of Discs
DVD VIDEO
Typically, DVD VIDEO discs are made up of larger units called
“titles”. Each title has a number (title number) that can be used
to select desired titles. Titles are further divided into units called
“chapters”. Each chapter has a number (chapter number) that
can also be used to select desired chapters. Note that some discs
are not divided into titles and chapters.
When you record a programme on a DVD-RAM/RW (VR mode)
disc
A single recording session results in a single title (a single
chapter). However, chapter marks are automatically inserted
when recording is paused, or audio changes from monaural or
bilingual to stereo due to commercial breaks, etc. It is also
possible to insert chapter marks at desired locations during
playback. (
When you record a programme on a DVD-R/RW (Video mode)
disc
A single recording session results in a single title (a single

when recording is paused, or audio changes due to commercial

locations during either recording or playback. Once the disc has
been finalised, these chapter marks are deleted and new chapter
marks are assigned automatically approximately every 5
minutes.

● In Video mode, even before finalising, it is impossible to
perform editing operations other than changing the disc name
and/or title names and deleting programmes and/or titles.
● After finalising, it is impossible to perform editing operations.
Audio CD/Video CD/SVCD
Typically, Audio CD discs are divided into separate tracks each
containing one song. Each track is assigned a number. For
example, the third track is Track 3. The same is true for Video
CD/SVCD discs.
However, some discs are not divided into tracks.

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!

Disc tray
Place the disc on the disc tray with the label side facing up.
Since disc size changes depending on the disc to be played
back, be sure to correctly align the disc with the grooves for its
size. If the disc is not in its groove, it may be scratched or
otherwise damaged. To insert an 8 cm disc, place it according to
the inner groove.
DVD-RAM discs contained in cartridges
Double-sided discs:
Remove the disc from the cartridge. Align the disc with the
grooves on the disc tray as shown in the illustration and insert
with the side you wish to play back or record facing down. If you
insert the disc with “Side A” facing down, programmes are
recorded on the side A.
Single-sided discs:
Remove the disc from the cartridge. Align the disc with the
grooves on the disc tray as shown in the illustration and insert
with the label side facing up.
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.
