PRECAUTIONS

THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS A LOW POWER LASER DEVICE. TO ENSURE CONTINUED SAFETY DO NOT REMOVE ANY COVERS OR ATTEMPT TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE INSIDE OF THE PRODUCT. REFER ALL SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

- The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

- No objects ﬁ lled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

- Do not use where there are extremes of temperature (below 5°C or exceeding 35°C) or where direct sunlight may strike it.

- Because of the DVD recorder's extremely low noise and wide dynamic range, there might be a tendency to set the volume on the ampliﬁ er unneces- sarily high. Doing so may produce an excessively large output from the ampliﬁ er which could damage your speakers.

- Sudden changes in the ambient temperature may cause condensation to form on the optical lens inside the unit. If this happens, take out the disc, leave the unit for about 2 hours, and then proceed to operate.

- When carrying the unit, be sure to remove a disc which may be inside and turn the power off. Wait at least 10 seconds, then unplug the mains lead from the AC outlet. Carrying the unit with a disc inside may damage the disc and/or the unit.

- Do not install this equipment in a conﬁ ned space, such as a book case or built-in cabinet.

- The unit must be operated in a horizontal position only.

The unit must be placed in a well ventilated area. Do not place any object on the top of the unit. Do not block ventilation holes. The cabinet of the unit warms up when it is used for a long time, but it is not a malfunction.

tion itself.

- In such instances, the instruction manual may not entirely match all the functions of the actual product.

- Therefore, the actual product and packaging, as well as the name and illustration, may differ from the manual.

Parental Level Control

Films on pre-recorded DVD discs may contain scenes not suitable for children. Therefore, some discs may contain “Parental Control” rating (level) information that applies to the entire disc or to certain scenes on the disc. The appropriate scenes have ﬁ lter values that reach from 1-8. If such a scene is detected during playback, the ﬁ lter value set on the DVD recorder is compared to the scene. If the ﬁ lter value is higher than the setting, an alternative scene will be played (if available).

What do the Rating (Level) mean? Rating (Level) Off (displayed as “--”) means that parental level control is not active. Rating (Level) 1 is most restrictive. It means without entering correct password, child cannot view the scenes that are not suitable for children, Rating (Level) 8 is least restrictive. Without entering the passcode, the scenes can be viewed.

What happens if a DVD scene contains a higher level than the rating set? If the recorder does not ﬁ nd a suitable alternative, playback will stop and you must enter the four-digit passcode.
