SAFETY FIRST

Some Do’s And Don’ts On The Safe Use Of Equipment

This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.

DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment. DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections between pieces of equipment)

are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug when making or

changing connections. DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment. DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.

DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way^switch off,

withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer. DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages. DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has

a standby mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family knows how to do this. Special

arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people. DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of road safety. It is illegal to

watch television whilst driving. DON’T listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently damage your hearing. DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings. Overheating will cause damage and shorten

the life of the equipment. DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws^to ensure complete safety always fit the manufacturer’s approved

stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions. DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.

ABOVE ALL...

^ NEVER let anyone especially children push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the case^this could result in a fatal

electrical shock;

^ NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind^it is better to be safe than sorry!

Information On Reception Of Digital Transmissions

If your DR-M150 reports that no digital signals were found after auto-tuning, or if the number of channels found is fewer than expected, this does not necessarily indicate a fault. Because of the nature of digital transmissions, there can be several external causes for this. The following information may help you determine the exact cause.

Digital transmissions are broadcast at much lower power and on different channels or different transmitters to analogue transmissions. This may mean that you will require an aerial upgrade in order to receive them. Some smaller transmitters do not yet transmit digital signals at all. To see if you are in an area covered by digital signals, use the online postcode checker at http://www.dtg.org.uk/consumer/coverage.html This will give a good indication of the conditions in your area. A more detailed version of the postcode checker, which shows more details of the channels you can expect to receive in your area, is available at http://www.dtg.org.uk/retailer/coverage.html postcode checkers give a good indication of what is available but, due to local conditions, they cannot be 100% accurate.

If you require an aerial upgrade to receive digital transmissions, you should first contact your dealer who should be able to advise on a suitable aerial. If this is not practical, you should choose an aerial installer who is a member of the Confederation of Aerial Industries (CAI). All CAI members conform to a code of practice. You can search for your local CAI registered installer at: http://www.cai.org.uk/asp/installer.asp

If you have a shared communal aerial system, this may be designed to receive only the analogue transmissions in your area. You should check with your landlord or local housing authority to see if your aerial system can be upgraded to receive digital transmissions.

Please note that unless you are located very close to the transmitter, it is very unlikely that you will be able to receive digital transmissions reliably with an indoor aerial.

If you have any other questions regarding the reception of digital transmissions, please call JVC Customer Services on 0870-330-5000.

. Please note that these

Typically, DVD VIDEO discs are made up of larger units called AtitlesB. Each title has a number (title number) that can be used to select desired titles. Titles are further divided into units called AchaptersB. 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. In addition, chapter marks are automatically inserted when recording is paused. It is also possible to insert chapter marks at desired locations during playback. (A pg. 25)

When you record a programme on a DVD-R/RW (Video mode) disc

A single recording session results in a single title. In addition, chapter marks are automatically inserted when recording is paused. It is possible to insert chapter marks at desired locations during playback. Once the disc has been finalised, these chapter marks are deleted and new chapter marks are assigned automatically approximately every 5 minutes.

DISC INFORMATION

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 dirty 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.

NOTES:

● You can programme this unit to timer record, regardless of the

disc remaining time. When the disc remaining time is not enough, it is not possible to record until the end of the timer programme. (Example) If you programmed to timer record for 60 minutes in SP mode on a 120 minutes 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 to check 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.

On-Disc Timer Programming

On-Disc Timer Programming is a function used with discs that are especially intended for a specific programme. The disc is then programmed for a programme you always watch every day or every week. Since older programmes are automatically overwritten, a single disc can be used without worrying about how much recording capacity remains. You can programme each disc to timer record as many as 8 programmes up to 30 days in advance.

● Make sure that the unit’s built-in clock is set properly.

● Turn on the TV and select an input mode such as EXT1.

● Load a DVD-RAM or DVD-RW (VR mode) disc for

programming.

● Slide the TV/DVD switch to DVD.

ATTENTION:

● On-Disc Timer Programming is possible only with the disc for

On-Disc Timer Programming.

● If data is recorded on a disc for On-Disc Timer Programming

using a unit from another manufacturer, On-Disc Timer Programming may not function properly.

● If timer programming cannot be set or cancelled, wait for about

40 seconds and then try again.

TIMER RECORDING

Automatic Satellite Programme Recording

This function allows you to automatically record a satellite programme which is timer programmed on your external satellite receiver. Connect a satellite receiver to the unit’s [L-2 IN] connector and programme the timer on the satellite receiver. The unit starts or stops recording by the signals input from the satellite receiver. After recording, the unit’s power shuts off automatically.

ATTENTION:

● When you record programmes by connecting to a digital

terrestrial receiver (Freeview receiver or similar), perform the same steps as AAutomatic Satellite Programme RecordingB (A pg. 42).

● Be sure not to turn on the satellite receiver before the

programme is executed. Otherwise, the unit will start recording when the satellite receiver’s power is turned on.

● If you have connected another appliance other than a satellite

receiver to the [L-2 IN] connector, be sure not to engage the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording mode. Otherwise, the unit will start recording when the connected appliance’s power is turned on.

● Automatic Satellite Programme Recording and timer recording

cannot be done at the same time.

REC MODE

● Make sure the satellite receiver is connected to the unit’s [L-2

IN] connector.

● Programme the timer on the satellite receiver.

● If the unit’s power is off, it is not possible to engage the Automatic

Satellite Programme Recording mode.

● In step 3, if AVB blinks quickly on the front display panel even

though your satellite receiver’s power is off, Automatic Satellite Programme Recording will not work properly with that satellite receiver*. If this is the case, perform AManual Timer ProgrammingB (A pg. 38) to timer record a satellite programme.

* Some satellite receivers output signals even if the power is off. Automatic

Satellite Programme Recording is not possible with those satellite receivers.

● Automatic Satellite Programme Recording is not possible if your

satellite receiver does not have a timer.

● Pressing the unit’s A button while Automatic Satellite

Programme Recording is in progress turns off the unit’s power and disengages the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording mode.

● If there are more than one satellite programmes you wish to

record with Automatic Satellite Programme Recording, it is not possible to set different recording modes for each programme.

● Depending on the type of satellite receiver, the unit may not

record a slight portion of the beginning of the programme or may record slightly longer than the actual length of the programme.

● If you engage the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording

mode when the satellite receiver’s power is on, the unit will not start Automatic Satellite Programme Recording even though AVB blinks on the front display panel. When the satellite receiver shuts off once and is turned back on again, the unit starts recording.

● When the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording mode is

engaged, or the unit’s power is turned off after Automatic Satellite Programme Recording is finished, the unit will not enter the timer mode even though AAUTO TIMERB is set to AONB.

● Just Clock (A pg. 66) does not work when the Automatic Satellite

Programme Recording mode is engaged.

Basic Operation Of Play List Information

Play List

It is a collection of the scenes. A play list can be freely edited and played back without ever changing any original recording data. Using the random access of a disc (which allows video data to be 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 and end point, indexes for checking the contents of recorded data, category information, and more. Playback according to a play list you have created allows you to enjoy various combinations of video images from a single title.

● Turn on the TV and select an input mode such as EXT1.

● Load a DVD disc to modify.

● Slide the TV/DVD switch to DVD.

ATTENTION:

It is not possible to modify discs recorded on DVD units from other manufacturers.
