Introduction

Precautions

Notes on handling

Never disconnect the power cord from a wall outlet
while the recorder is not in standby mode, 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 period 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. For
safety, avoid placing the recorder in a high location, as
an accidental fall of the recorder may cause personal
injury.
When you place this recorder near a TV, radio, or
VCR, 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 as far away much as possible from
the TV, radio, or VCR.
Do not install this product in an area where it will be
exposed to large amounts of oily smoke, steam or
dust, as such exposure could result in fire or electric
shock. Cigarette smoke, dust etc. can cause the
product to malfunction.

Notes on cleaning

Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.

For stubborn dirt, use a damp cloth (containing a mild
detergent) to wipe the unit. Ensure the unit is
unplugged before you do this. Use a dry cloth to wipe
it dry.
Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner or
benzine, as they may damage the surface of the
recorder.
If you use a chemical saturated cloth to clean the unit,
follow that product’s instructions.

To obtain a clear picture

The recorder is a high technology, precision device. If the
optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn
down, the picture quality deteriorates. To obtain a clear
picture, we recommend regular inspection and
maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every 1,000
hours of use depending on the operating environment.
For details, contact your nearest dealer.

Notes on antennas

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 antenna booster. Refer to the booster’s
instruction manual for installation details.

Notes on recording and editing

Power Outage

When you record/edit important content, make trial
operations beforehand to confirm the recorder can
function properly.
Toshiba does not compensate for content which was
not recorded/edited because of some malfunction of
this product or discs during operation, and is not liable
for incidental damages (such as profit loss or
interruption of business, etc.) produced in such
conditions.
When the power cord is disconnected or when a
power failure occurs during any operation of this
product, all contents recorded in this recorder may be
erased.
Depending on the channel or program, an excessive
sound input level may cause noise or cut of recorded
sound. Adjust the initial setting of the recording level
when necessary.
If a program you have set a timer recording includes
copy restriction signals, it may not be recorded. When
programming a recording, confirm that a program you
want to record is not copy-restricted.

Exemptions

Toshiba is not liable for any damage caused by fires,
natural disaster (such as thunder, earthquake, etc.),
acts by third parties, accidents, owner’s intentional or
unintentional misuse, or uses in other improper
conditions.
Toshiba is not liable for incidental damages (such as
profit loss or interruption in business, modification or
erasure of recorded data, etc.) caused by use or
inability to use of this product.
Toshiba is not liable for any damage caused by
neglect of the instructions described in the owner’s
manual.
Toshiba is not liable for any damage caused by
misuse or malfunction through simultaneous use of
this product and the connected equipment or software
that Toshiba is not concerned with.
Toshiba does not compensate for contents which were
not recorded/edited because of some malfunctions of
this product or discs during operation, and is not liable
for incidental damages (such as profit loss or
interruption in business, etc.) produced by such
conditions.

After a power outage the clock display will flash. Set
the clock to the correct time.

Notes on the unit

Do not give a shock or shake (especially during

Notes on summer time on this recorder

• The recording system of this recorder always conforms to its own actual clock even at the moment it gains or loses 1 hour of

shift to/from summer time. Therefore, there may be some inconsistency in the display’s digits or actual operations on that
occasion. For example, on the first Sunday in April, the actual recording length of a programmed recording from 1:00 a.m. to
4:00 a.m. will be 2 hours, not 3. Be sure to give a careful consideration to your setting or reading on-screen if a recording
period includes the moment of time shift.

• This recorder’s clock cannot lose 1 hour on the last Sunday in October even if you set “Auto” or “Use” at step 5, unless it

once gained 1 hour in April.

• When setting both “Time & Date setting” and “Time zone” to “Auto”, you can confirm the set “Time zone” in the “Time zone”

display of the “Manual” screen in “Time & Date setting”. (The “Time zone” display of the “Manual” screen in “Time & Date
setting” will remain in “Auto”.)

• In the case of a programmed recording with the DST change-over point to Daylight-saving time, if the continuous recording
time exceeds the limit due to a time discrepancy caused by Daylight-saving time during recording, the recording stops on
that point.
