• Never use a solvent, thinner, benzene or alcohol to clean the unit. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the unit. Such chemicals may discolor the surface or damage the unit.
Cleaning discs
• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center to out. Do not wipe in a circular motion.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, detergent, abrasive cleaning agents or antistatic spray intended for analog records.
Cleaning the disc lens
• If this unit still does not perform properly although you refer to the relevant sections and to “TROUBLESHOOTING” in this user manual, the laser optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult your dealer or an Authorized Service Center for inspection and cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.
Disc handling
• Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the surfaces of the discs.
• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is not used.
Installation Location
For safety and optimum performance of this unit:
• Install the unit in a horizontal and stable position. Do not place anything directly on top of the unit. Do not place the unit directly on top of the TV.
• Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away from devices of intense heat. Avoid dusty or humid places. Avoid places with insufficient ventilation for proper heat dissipation. Do not block the ventilation holes on the sides of the unit. Avoid locations subject to strong vibration or strong magnetic fields.
Moisture Condensation Warning
Moisture condensation may occur inside the unit when it is moved from a cold place to a warm place or after heating a cold room or under conditions of high humidity. Do not use this unit at least for 2 hours until its inside gets dry.
IR Signal Check
If the remote control does not work properly, you can test if the remote control sends out the infrared signal with AM radio or a digital camera (including built-in camera of cellular phone). It will help to define the cause of malfunction.
With an AM radio: Tune an AM radio to a station with no broadcasting. Press a button on remote control toward the radio. Sound will be fluttering when you press any key and the radio receives the signal. This means the remote control is working.
With a digital camera (including built-in camera of
cellular phone):
Direct a digital camera to remote control, press and hold a button on remote control. If infrared light appears through digital camera, the remote control is working.

Dolby Digital Recording
“Dolby® Digital Recording enables consumers to record high-quality video with stereo sound on recordable DVD discs. The technology, when utilized instead of PCM recording, also saves recordable disc space, allowing for higher video resolution or extended recording time on each DVD. DVDs created using Dolby Digital Recording will play back on all DVD-video players.” Note: This is true when the players are compatible with actual recordable DVD discs.

FEATURES
This unit not only plays back DVD and CD but also offers features for you to record on DVD and edit them after that. The following features are offered with this unit.
Recording
This unit is compatible with DVD+RW/DVD-RW, which is rewritable repeatedly and DVD+R/DVD-R, which is avail­able for recording once. You can choose either one for your convenience. Even if you choose DVD-RW/-R, these discs will automatically be recorded in the DVD+VR mode.
Up to 12 program recording:
You can program the unit to record up to 12 programs within a one-month period. Daily or weekly program recordings are also available.

DV dubbing:
This function helps you to easily dub the contents of the DVC (digital video camcorder) to DVD.
Automatic chapter mark setting:
Chapter marks will be put on recordings as you set before attempting to record.

About digital TV broadcasting:
With its high definition broadcast, digital broadcasting far surpasses analog broadcasting in both its picture and sound quality.
What is the minor channel?
By using high compression technology, digital broadcasting offers a service that enables multiple signals to send simultaneously.
Therefore, you can select more than one program per major channel since digital broadcasting technology distinguishes between multiple channels broadcast by a signal network.
