Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of disc should I use for recording?
You can only record on DVD±R and DVD±RW discs. DVD±R/±RW is the most compatible recordable DVD format on the market today. They are fully compatible with most of the existing DVD-Video players and
DVD-ROM drives in computers.
What is the capacity of a DVD±R/±RW disc?
4.7GB, or equivalent to 6 CDs. You can store only one hour of recordings on a single disc at the highest quality (DVD standard) and about 6 hours recordings at the lowest quality (VHS standard). The recording mode indicates the number of hours that will  t on a single disc.
What is the difference between DVD±R and DVD±RW?
DVD±R is “recordable” and DVD±RW is “erasable” and “rewritable”. With a DVD±R, you can record multiple sessions on the same disc, but when the disc is full, you cannot record any more on the disc. The DVD±RW allows you to record over the same disc repeatedly.
What is DV?
Using DV, also known as i.LINK, you can connect a DV-equipped camcorder to this recorder using a single DV cable for input and output of audio, video, data and control signals. – This recorder is only compatible with DV-format (DVC-SD) camcorders. Digital satellite tuners and Digital VHS video recorders are not compatible. – You can only connect one DV camcorder to this recorder at any one time. – You cannot control this recorder via the external equipment connected to the DV IN
jack.
Can I copy a VHS tape or DVD from an external player?
Yes, but only if the VHS tape or DVD is not copy protected.
What are Titles and Chapters?
A DVD disc contains Titles and Chapters, which are similar to the Titles and Chapters of a book. A Title is often a complete movie and is broken down into Chapters, or individual
scenes from the movies.
Title
Chapter
Title
Chapter Chapter Chapter Chapter
chapter markers
Programs are recorded as a single title; it may consist of one chapter or a few chapters within a title, depending on the recording settings.
How do I set up Titles and Chapters?
The DVD recorder automatically creates a new Title every time you start a new recording. You can then add Chapters to these recordings manually or have them
automatically inserted at 5-minute intervals.
What does “ nalizing” a disc do?
Finalizing a disc locks the disc so it can no longer be recorded and is only required for DVD±R. It will then be compatible with virtually any DVD player. To close a disc without  nalizing it, simply stop recording and eject the disc. You will still be able to record on the disc if there is room for more
recordings.
How good is the quality of the recording?
There are a few quality levels to choose from, ranging from “1 hour mode” (High Quality) to “6 hours mode” (VHS quality). Press REC MODE button on the remote control to choose the quality level that best suits your purpose and the length of material.

Care and Safety Information
English
CAUTION! High voltage! Do not open the device. You run the risk of getting an electric shock.
The machine does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Please leave all maintenance work to quali ed personnel.
Setup precautions
Finding a suitable location
– Place the set on a  at, hard and stable surface. Do not place the set on a carpet. – Do not position the set on top of other equipment that might heat it up (e.g., receiver or ampli er). – Do not put anything above or under the set (e.g., CDs, magazines). – Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the AC power plug can be reached easily.
Space for ventilation
– Place the apparatus in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build up. Allow at least 10 cm (4.5”) clearance from the rear and the top of the set and 5 cm (2.3”) from the left and right to prevent overheating.
5cm (2.3")
Cleaning discs
Some problems occur because the disc inside the recorder is dirty (frozen picture, sound disruptions, picture distortions). To avoid these problems, discs should be cleaned on a regular basis.
To clean a disc, use a micro  bre cleaning cloth and wipe the disc from the center to the edge in a straight line.
CAUTION!
Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static sprays intended for analog discs. Since the optical unit (laser) of the DVD recorder operates at a higher power than regular DVD or CD players, cleaning CDs intended for DVD or CD players may damage the optical unit (laser). Therefore, refrain from using a cleaning CD.

This video connection provides better picture quality. – Most commercial video cassettes and DVDs are copy-protected and therefore cannot be recorded. – Connect the DVD recorder directly to the TV. If there is a VCR or an additional device in between, the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system built into the DVD recorder.
TIPS: Before making or changing any connections, make sure that all the devices are disconnected
from the power outlet.

Discs for recording
Different formats of DVD recordable discs can be used with this DVD recorder:
DVD±RW (DVD ReWritable) – Discs that are rewritable can be used for multiple recordings once existing data
is erased.
DVD±R (DVD Recordable) – Discs can only be used for a single recording. Each new recording is always added at the end of all previous recordings as existing recordings cannot be overwritten. – Editing can be made on any DVD±R discs as long as they have not been  nalized. It is also possible to create additional chapter markers. – You can also delete unwanted recordings. However, the disc space occupied by the deleted recordings cannot be recovered for further recording. – To play a DVD±R on other DVD player, it must be  nalized (see page 35 “Playing your recordings (DVD±R) on other DVD players”). After this is done, no more data can be added to the disc.
IMPORTANT! Unrecordable pictures
Television programs,  lms, video tapes, discs, and other materials may be copy-protected and therefore cannot be recorded on this recorder.
