HDD (Hard disk drive)
Follow the precautions indicated below to prevent damage to the internal HDD. (Not following precautions may result in a loss of recording, stop of operation or recording of noise.)
ªDuring setup
Do not place in an enclosed area so that the rear cooling fan and
the cooling vents on the side are covered up.
Place the unit on a surface that is flat and not subject to vibration
or impact.
Place in an area where condensation does not occur.
Conditions where condensation may occur
During the rainy season in tropical and sub tropical areas.When the room humidity is high (Steam gets into the unit).When there is an extreme change in temperature (moving
from a very hot location to a very cold location, or when an extreme change in a air conditioning or cooled air directly impacts the unit).
#In the above situation, with the power off, let the unit adjust to
the room temperature and wait 2-3 hours until condensation is gone.
ªWhile operating
Do not remove the AC mains plug from the household AC outlet,
or flip the power breaker switch. Do not move the unit or subject to vibration or impact. #When moving the unit: 1 Press [DVD, Í] to switch the unit off. (Wait until “BYE”
disappears from the display.)
2 Remove the AC mains plug from the household AC outlet. 3 Wait 2 minutes before moving.
While the unit is on, the HDD will be spinning at high speed and it is normal to hear sounds. These sounds are not problems.
ªIn the event of a power failure
If a power failure occurs, contents in the process of playback/ recording (including contents in SD VIDEO (MPEG4)) may be damaged.
ªSafeguards against accidental loss
Data may be lost if the HDD suffers damage. Any contents you wish to keep permanently should be dubbed or moved to DVD-RAM or DVD-R.
ªWhen “HDD SLEEP” appears on the unit’s display
To keep the lifetime of HDD, HDD is automatically paused. (The [HDD] lamp blinks and then turns off.)
HDD starts when pressing [HDD].You cannot record or play back on HDD soon after it is paused
because it takes time to be started. If you do not operate this unit without a disc for 30 minutes or
more, HDD is paused.
We recommend removing discs when you do not use this unit.
HDD remaining time
This units records using a VBR (Variable bit recording) data compression system to vary recorded data segments to match video data segments which may cause differences in the displayed amount of time and space remaining for recording. If the remaining time is insufficient, erase any unwanted programmes to create enough space before you start recording. (Erasing a play list will not increase the amount of time.)

You cannot directly record on SD Memory Card.The audio for the SD VIDEO (MPEG4) is monaural. You can
select the audio for bilingual broadcasting on “Bilingual Audio Selection” (page 54).
The aspect ratio of the recorded picture is 4:3.Set the item in “SD CARD capacity” (page 53) according to the
capacity of your card. The recording of the programme is divided according to the setting. The programme is divided even the recording is stopped or paused. (“When dubbing programmes to DVD-RAM or DVD-R (t1–t4) in High Speed mode”, page 27)
ªSD VIDEO (MPEG4) Title
When recording SD VIDEO (MPEG4) programme, it is
automatically divided by “SD CARD capacity” (page 53) to be recorded within the capacity of SD Memory Card.
In case of a TV station with Teletext information, the title of the
TV programme is entered automatically, provided the “Title page” is correctly set. (page 58)
If a programme is divided before entering its title by Teletext
information, the title is not entered to the divided programmes. Until the title of the programme is entered by Teletext information, serial numbers (e.g. “MOL***”) are automatically given as the title of divided programmes.
When the title of the programme is entered, it becomes effective
to all subsequent programmes.
In case of a TV station with Teletext information, it may take over
30 minutes to get the title or may fail to get.

DVD-R has limitations on recording (page 8).In RGB recording, set “AV2 Input” to “RGB (PAL only)”. (page 55)
ªRecording/Dubbing/Moving of a programme
This unit incorporates copyright protection technology for recording equipment known as CPRM (page 8). With some programmes recording, dubbing and/or moving may not be possible.
When recording bilingual audio with connecting to a
decoder or a digital receiver
Select the audio type either “M1” or “M2” on the connected devices. (You cannot select the audio type on this unit.)
During play
The audio type selected for recording is played. This is displayed as “LR”.
ªRecording sound using LPCM
To obtain higher quality recordings using LPCM, prepare as follows:
1) Select “LPCM” in the SETUP menu, “Sound”— “Audio Mode for XP Recording” (page 54).
2) Set recording mode to “XP”.
Note
Sound recordings under LPCM require more information than
usual. Consequently the picture quality of LPCM recordings may be less than that of normal XP mode recordings.
