extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.
However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug,
remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the
plug. Do not connect the plug to a mains jack, as there is a
risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.
To disconnect the apparatus from the mains, the plug must
be pulled out from the mains socket, therefore the mains

Step 1
This DVD Recorder can record on the following types
of discs.
If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc or
you want to edit the disc after recording, select a
rewritable DVD-RW type disc.
If you want to save recording without any change,
choose a non-rewritable DVD-R.
Step 2
Unlike a VCR, the DVD Recorder automatically starts
formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is
required for the preparation of recording on a disc.
Using a DVD-RW
This type of disc can be formatted in either DVD-Video
format (Video mode) or DVD-Video Recording format
(VR mode). For an unused disc, a message that asks
whether to format in VR Mode or not is displayed.
You can play a Video mode disc on various DVD
components. A VR mode disc allows more varied
editing.
Using a DVD-R
Formatting a disc is unnecessary and only Video
Mode Recording is supported. You can play this type
of discs on various DVD components only when they
have been finalised.
NOTE
Select the disc type
Format the disc to start recording
■
You can only use either the VR or

both at the same time.
■
You can change the DVD-RW
format to another format by
reinitializing. It should be noted that
the disc's data will be lost when
changing formats.

Step 3
Recording
Step 6
Finalising & Playing on other DVD components
There are two different recording methods, Direct
Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is
classified as a Date : Once, Daily, MO-SA, MO-FR,
W-SA, etc.
Getting Started
Recording mode : XP (high quality mode), SP (standard
quality mode), LP (long recording mode), and EP
(extended mode) according to the recording mode. When
recording is set in the FR mode, the best quality picture is
recorded with regards to the remaining time on the disc.
Step 4
You can select the title you want to play in a displayed
menu and then immediately start playback.
A DVD consists of sections called titles, and sub
sections called chapters.
During recording, a title is created between two points
where you start and stop recording. Chapters will be
created automatically when you finalise recording on
DVD-R / DVD-RW discs in Video mode.
The chapter’s length (interval between chapters) varies
according to the recording mode.
Playing
To play your DVD on other DVD components,
finalising may be necessary. First, finish all editing and
recording operations, then finalise the disc.
When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode
Although finalising is generally unnecessary when
playing the disc on a VR Mode compatible component,
a finalised disc should be used for playback.
When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode
The disc should be finalised first to enable playback on
anything other than this DVD Recorder. No more
editing or recording can be made on the disc once it
has been finalised.
When using a DVD-R disc
You should finalise the disc to play it on a component
other than this DVD Recorder. You cannot edit or
record on the disc once it has been finalised.
Step 5
Editing on discs is easier than conventional video
tapes. The DVD Recorder supports many different edit
functions, possible only with DVDs.
With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate
various edit functions, such as delete, copy, rename,
lock, etc., on a recorded title.
Creating a playlist (DVD-RW in VR mode)
With this DVD Recorder, you can create a new playlist
on the same disc and edit it without the change of the
original recording.
