• Please refer to relevant topics on “TROUBLESHOOTING” on pages 80-84 before returning the product.

• If this unit becomes inoperative, do not try to correct the problem by yourself. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Turn off, unplug the power plug and please call our help line mentioned on the front page to locate an Authorized Service Center.

Cleaning the cabinet

• Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use a solution containing alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasive.

Cleaning discs

• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center to out. Do not wipe in a circular motion.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, detergent, abrasive cleaning agents or antistatic spray intended for analog records.

Cleaning the disc lens

• If this unit still does not perform properly although you refer to the relevant sections and to

“TROUBLESHOOTING” in this owner's manual, the laser optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult your dealer or an Authorized Service Center for inspection and cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.

Disc handling

• Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the surfaces of the discs.

• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is not used.

IR signal check

If the remote control does not work properly, you can test if the remote control sends out the infrared signal with

AM radio or a digital camera (including built-in camera of cellular phone). It will help to define the cause of malfunction.

• With an AM radio:

Tune an AM radio to a station with no broadcasting. Press a button on remote control toward the radio. Sound will be fluttering when you press any key and the radio receives the signal. This means the remote control is working.

• With a digital camera (including built-in

camera of cellular phone):

Direct a digital camera to remote control, press and hold a button on remote control.

If infrared light appears through digital camera, the remote control is working.

Video/ sound quality

• The recording times listed above are estimates and are for reference purposes only. Actual recording times may vary.

• The audio and video quality of content being recorded may differ depending on the recording speed/recording time chosen.

You cannot record copy-protected video using this unit.

Copy-protected video includes DVD-videos and some satellite broadcasts, some pay-per-view stations and some “premium” stations.

If copy-protected material is detected, recording will pause or stop automatically and an error message appears on the screen.

“Copy-once only” video can only be recorded to CPRM compatible DVD-RW formatted in VR mode.

What is “CPRM”?

CPRM is a copy protection system with scramble system regarding the recording of “copy-once” broadcast programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for

Recordable Media.

This unit is CPRM compatible, which means that you can record copy-once broadcast programs, but you cannot make another copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on CPRM compatible DVD-

RW formatted in VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only be played back on DVD players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.

Note

• This unit cannot record to CD-RW or CD-R.

• DVD-RW/-R and CD-RW/-R recorded on a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder may not be played back if the disc is damaged or dirty or if there is condensation on the player’s lens.

• If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a compatible format it may not be played back because of the settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check with the software publisher for more detailed information.)

• Discs recorded in video mode on this unit cannot record additional information using other DVD recorders.

• It is not possible to use a DVD-RW formatted with this unit on other DVD recorder unless the content of the disc was also recorded with this unit.

• Since the recording is made by the VBR (variable bit rate) method, depending on the picture you are recording, the actual remaining time for recording may be a little shorter than the remaining time displayed on the TV screen.

• “Make Recording Compatible“ in “Recording

Menu“ does not work on this unit.

Making discs playable in other DVD players(Finalize)

For DVD-RW/-R, it is necessary to finalize the disc after recording, in order to play back the disc on other DVD players. (Refer to pages 27-29.)

When video mode DVD-RW or DVD-R are finalized, a DVD menu is created. You cannot finalize discs in other DVD recorders.

GLOSSARY

Analog Audio

An electrical signal that directly represents sound.

Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also

“Digital Audio”.

Aspect Ratio

The width of a TV screen relative to its height.

Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the TV screen is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the TV screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).

PCM (pulse code modulation)

The most common system of encoding digital audio, found on CD and DAT. Excellent quality, but requires a lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital and

MPEG audio to PCM. See also “Digital Audio”.

Chapter

Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a

DVD is usually divided into chapters. See also “Title”.

Progressive Scan (525p/480p)

A type of display that does not split each frame into fields, and instead scans directly through all the scanlines of each frame in order. Progressive scan provides less flickering and higher image resolution than traditional

(525i/480i) TV signals. Refer to page 78 for instructions on selective progressive scan mode.

Component Video Output

Each signal of luminance (Y) and component (P

B

/C

B

, P

R

/

C

R

) is independent to output so that you can experience picture color as it is.

Also, due to compatibility with progressive video

(525p/480p), you can experience higher-density picture than that in interlace (525i/480i).

Region Code

Regions associate discs and players with particular areas of the world. This unit will only play back discs that have compatible region codes. You can find the region code of your unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are compatible with more than one region (or all regions).

Digital Audio

An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals

(44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analogto-digital converter, generating a stream of numbers.

On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an analog signal based on these numbers. See also

“Sampling Frequency” and “Analog Audio”.

Dolby Digital

The system to compress digital sound developed by

Dolby Laboratories. It offers you sound of stereo(2ch) or multi channel audio.

Sampling Frequency

The rate which sound is measured by a specified interval to turn into digital audio data. The numbers of sampling in one second defines as sampling frequency. The higher the rate, the better the sound quality.

S-Video Output

It delivers independently each signal of color(C) and luminance(Y) to TV as video signals, so that higher-quality picture will be gained.

Title (DVD only)

A collection of chapters on DVD. See also “Chapter”.

Finalize

To make DVD, which have been recorded on, possible to play back in DVD players.

JPEG (joint photographic experts group)

JPEG is a method of compressing still image files. You can copy JPEG files on CD-RW/-R from a computer and play back the files on this unit.

MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3)

MP3 is a method of compressing files. You can copy MP3 files on CD-RW/-R from the computer and play back the files on this unit.

Track

Audio CD use tracks to divide up the content of a disc. The DVD equivalent is called a chapter. See also

“Chapter”.
