Introduction
Precautions
Notes on handling
Never disconnect the power cord from a wall outlet
while the recorder is turned on, unless it is in an
emergency. Doing so may cause malfunction.
When shipping the recorder, the original shipping
carton and packing materials come in handy. For
maximum protection, repack the unit as it was
originally packed at the factory.
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near
the recorder. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the recorder for a long time. They will
leave marks on the finish.
The top and rear panels of the recorder may become
warm after a long time of use. This is not a
malfunction.
When not in use
For usual absence
Be sure to remove the disc from the recorder and turn
off the power.
Prolonged absence
Unplug the recorder from a wall outlet.
Notes on locating
Place the recorder on a level surface. Do not use it on
a shaky or unstable surface such as a wobbly table or
inclined stand. The loaded disc may dislodge from its
proper position and cause damage to the recorder.
Before placing the recorder, make sure that the
surface can stand the weight of the recorder. Never
place the recorder in a high location to avoid an
accidental fall of the recorder.
When you place this recorder near a TV, radio, or VTR,
the playback picture may become poor and the sound
may be distorted depending on the condition and
location of said equipment. In such an event, place the
recorder away as much as possible from the TV, radio,
or VTR.
To avoid damage to this product, never place or store
the unit in direct sunlight; hot, humid areas; or areas
subject to excessive dust, oily smoke, cigarette smoke
or vibration.
Notes on cleaning
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner or
benzine, as they may damage the surface of the
recorder.
Notes on aerials
Image and sound quality depend very much on signal
reception.
Reception may be poor in weak signal areas. In this
event, consult your dealer, or purchase a commercially
available aerial booster. Refer to the booster’s
instruction manual for installation details.
