of the same colour as the pin face of the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point,
you should obtain a suitable safety approved 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 plug shall be readily operable.

HOW TO USE THE DVD RECORDER & VCR
Step 1 : Select the disc type
Please check available disc type before recording.
~ DVD-VR370
(DVD+RW/DVD+R discs can be played, but cannot be recorded.)
~ DVD-VR375
If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc or you want to edit the disc after recording, select a
rewritable DVD-RAM or DVD±RW type disc. If you want to save a recording without any changes, choose a
non-rewritable DVD±R.
Step 2 : Format the disc to start recording
Unlike a VCR, the DVD Recorder
& VCR
starts formatting when an unused disc is inserted. DVD+R DVD+ReWritable
DVD+R DVD+ReWritable
Using a DVD-RAM/±RW/+R
When an unused DVD-RAM/±RW/+R disc is first inserted, the message "Unformatted Disc. Formatting.
Please wait." will be displayed.
Using a DVD-R
It is not necessary to format a new DVD-R disc. When it is inserted, it will operate in Video mode.
It can also be formatted in VR mode in the setup menu.
You can change the disc mode only once when an unused DVD-R disc is inserted.
M
` You can only use either the VR or Video mode on a DVD-RW/-R, but not both at the same time.
` You can format a DVD-RW/-R to V or VR mode using Disc Setting. It should be noted that the disc’s data will be lost
when changing formats.

2009-04-13 오후 4:12:43
Step 3 : Recording
There are two different recording methods, Direct Recording (recording a programme you are currently
watching) and Timer Recording.
Timer recording is classified as follows : Recording mode : HQ (high quality mode), HSP, SP (standard quality
mode), LSP, ESP, LP, EP, SLP (Long duration mode) according to the recording mode.
When recording is set in the AUTO mode, the best quality picture is recorded with regards to the remaining
time on the disc.
● getting started
Step 4 : Playing
To start playback, select the title you want to play from the title list.
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 regardless of the disc type when it is set at the setup menu.
Step 5 : Editing a recorded disc
Editing on discs is easier than conventional video tapes. The 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, dubbing, rename,
lock, etc., on a recorded title.
Creating a playlist (DVD-RAM/-RW/-R in VR mode)
With this DVD Recorder & VCR, you can create a new playlist on a disc and edit it without the original, pre-existing recording.
Step 6 : Finalising & Playing on other DVD components
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/-R 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/-R disc in Video Mode
The disc should be finalised first to enable playback on anything other than this recorder. No more editing or recording can be made on the disc once it has been finalised.
To enable recording on the disc again, the disc must be unfinalised.
When using a DVD+R disc
You should finalise the disc to play it on a component other than this DVD Recorder & VCR. No more editing or recording can be made on the disc once it has been finalised.
M
` You can finalise the disc automatically using EZ Record. (See page 38)
