Precautions (Cont’d)

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

1. Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated.

2. Retain Instructions- The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.

3. Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed.

5. Cleaning - Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

EXCEPTION: A product that is meant for uninterrupted service and, that for some specific reason, such as the possibility of the loss of an authorization code for a CATV converter, is not intended to be unplugged by the user for cleaning or any other purpose, may exclude the reference to unplugging the appliance in the cleaning description otherwise required in item 5.

6. Attachments - Do not use attachments not recommended by the product manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

7. Water and Moisture- Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.

8. Accessories - Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket,or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer's instructions and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

9. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface .This product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.

10. Power Sources - This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

11. Grounding or Polarization - This product is equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way.This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

12. Power Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

13. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI / NFPA No. 70, provides information with regard

to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. (Fig.A)

14. Lightning - For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

15. Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

Information on Supported Media (Cont’d)

Before you

start

What is CPRM?

This is a format used to record copy-once programs. By recording coded data on the area of discs that ordinary writing software cannot write, it prevents copyonce programs from being recorded repeatedly on different media. This unit is CPRM compatible, which means that you can record copy-once broadcast programs,but then you cannot make a copy of those recordings.CPRM recordings can only be made on the HDD or VR mode DVD-RW disc,and CPRM recordings can only be played back on DVD players that are compatible with CPRM.

Information on copy control

Some satellite broadcasts include copy protected information. For their recording,refer to the following.

Making discs playable on other DVD player (Finalize)

After recording,you must finalize the disc in order to play on other units. (See page 63.)

* For Video mode discs, the finalization is required. * For VR mode discs, the finalization is recommended. * For the information on videotapes,refer to ‘VCR

functions’ on pages

121-127.

About HDD

HDD is a special component which has high recording density and is suited for long-time recording or high-speed cueing but by contrast,has many factors which can cause breakage. Use HDD on the premise that you should dub the recorded programs to a DVD disc or a videotape to protect your precious videos.

HDD is a temporary storage location.

HDD is not a permanent storage location of the recorded contents. Be sure to use it as a temporary storage location until you watch the programs once,edit them, or dub them to a DVD disc or a videotape.

Be sure to dub (back up) data promptly if you find abnormalities in HDD.

If there is mechanical trouble with the HDD, grinding or other sounds may be heard or blocky noise may appear on the image. If you continue to use as it is, deterioration may continue and eventually the HDD may not be used at all.If you notice these symptoms of a failing HDD, promptly dub the data to a DVD disc or a videotape. When an HDD fails, recovery of recorded content (data) may be impossible.

About the remaining capacity of HDD recording time:

In recording to HDD, the Remaining Capacity Display may differ from the actual recordable time as this unit adopts Variable Bit Rate encoding,which varies the recording (storage) amount of data in conformity with the information amount of video.Before recording to the HDD, ensure there is sufficient space on the HDD by deleting unnecessary titles in advance. (Remaining capacity will not increase if you only delete Playlists.)

What are Original List and Playlist?

There are 2 types for the title list:Original List and Playlist.

Original List:

Original List is the list of the recorded programs (titles) which are created automatically when they are recorded.Original List is available for HDD, DVD-RW, and DVD-R.Please note that editing the titles in the Original List is like editing the original data. For example,

if you erase a title in the Original List,the title cannot be recovered. So,please be careful when you work in the Original List.

Playlist:

Playlist is the copy of the Original List.You can edit the titles in the Playlist as you like without affecting the Original data in the Original List.It works like a back up for the Playlist. Deleting a title from the Playlist does not delete the corresponding title in the Original List,but deleting a title from the Original List also deletes the corresponding title in the Playlist.With HDD and VR mode DVD-RW,the Playlist is created automatically. Playlist is available only for the HDD and the VR mode DVDs.
