Before Use (Continued)
Precautions
Handling the unit
When shipping the unit
The original shipping carton and packing materials
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the
unit as it was originally packaged at the factory.
When setting up the unit
The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio
may be distorted during playback. In this case, position
the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the
unit after removing the disc.
Cleaning discs
Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.

No
To keep the surface clean
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,
near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will
leave marks on the surface.
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for older vinyl records.
Cleaning the unit
About the
To clean the cabinet
Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent
solution. Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface
of the unit.
To obtain a clear picture
The DVD+VCR is a high-tech, precision device. If the
optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or
worn, the picture quality will be poor.
Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended
after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the
operating environment.)
For details, please contact your nearest dealer.

BROADCAST TYPE (STEREO/SAP/MONO)
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) carries stereo and/or
Second Audio Program (SAP) bilingual signals. Set this display to
the desired position when both MTS stereo and SAP signals are
received. When only one of the MTS signal is received, the
DVD+VCR automatically selects the corresponding receiving
mode (Stereo or SAP) regardless of the selected position. For
normal operation, the display should be in the STEREO position.
The DVD+VCR will then record a STEREO program when available,
and record a mono program IF the program is NOT IN STEREO.
For weak STEREO and/or SAP broadcasts, changing the display to mono may give clearer sound.
BROADCAST TYPE can be switched among STEREO, SAP,

This display setting should normally be left in the stereo position, so that when a stereo tape is played, the stereo sound will

With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presentation
possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the
audio output (the difference between the loudest and
quietest scenes), e.g., when watching a movie late at
night. With DRC set to ON, you can listen to a movie at
a lower volume without losing sound clarity.

About MP3
An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the
MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call
files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.
The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file
extension other than “.mp3”.
Some discs may be incompatible due to different
recording formats or the condition of the disc.
About WMA (Windows Media Audio)
A WMA file is a Microsoft audio compression
technology.
WMA offers approximately twice the audio compression of the MP3 format.

MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this player is
limited as follows:
1. Sampling Frequency / 8 - 48 kHz (MP3),
22 - 48kHz (WMA).
2. Bit rate / 32 - 320kbps (MP3), 40 - 192kbps (WMA).
3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”.
4. If you record MP3/WMA files using the software
which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example
“Direct-CD” etc., it is impossible to playback
MP3/WMA files. We recommend that you use “EasyCD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.
5. A single session disc requires MP3/WMA files in the
first track. If there is no MP3/WMA file in the 1st
track, it cannot play back MP3/WMA files. If you
wish to playback MP3/WMA files, format all the data
in the disc or use a new one.
6. File names should be named using 8 letters or less
and must incorporate “.mp3” or “.wma” extension
e.g. “********.MP3” or “********.WMA”.
7. Do not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc.
8. Total number of files and folders on the disc should
be less than 999.
This DVD+VCR requires discs/recordings to meet
certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal
playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically
set to these standards. There are many different types
of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing
MP3 or WMA files). That require certain pre-existing
conditions (see above) to insure compatible playback.
Customers should also note that permission must
be required in order to download MP3/WMA files
and music from the Internet. Our company has no
right to grant such permission. Permission should
always be sought from the copyright owner.

Notes on JPEG Recordings
Depending upon the size and number of the JPEG
files, it may take awhile for the DVD+VCR to read the
disc’s contents. If you don’t see an on-screen display
after several minutes, some of the files are too big —
reduce the resolution of the JPEG files to less than
3760x3840 pixels and burn another disc.
Total number of files and folders on the disc should
be less than 999.
Some discs may be incompatible due to different
recording formats or the condition of the disc.
When you are using software such as “Easy CD
Creator” to burn the JPEG files onto the CD-R,
ensure that all the selected files have the “.jpg” extensions when copying into the CD layout.
If the files have “.jpe” or “.jpeg” extensions, please
rename them as “.jpg” files.
File names without the “.jpg” extension will not be recognized by this DVD+VCR, even though the files are
shown as JPEG image files in Windows Explorer.

Moisture condensation can occur:
In locations where moisture condensation may occur:
• When the DVD+VCR is moved from a cold place to a
warm place.
• Keep the DVD+VCR plugged into an AC power outlet

• Under extremely humid conditions.
• When condensation has occurred, wait a few hours
for the DVD+VCR to dry before using it.

Troubleshooting (Continued)
Video Head Cleaning
Video head clogging
The video heads are the means by which the unit reads the picture from the tape during playback. In the unlikely
event that the heads become dirty enough to be clogged, no picture will be played back. This can easily be determined if, during playback of a known good tape, there is good sound, but no picture (picture is extremely snowy). If
this is the case, use a high quality head cleaning system or have them cleaned professionally.
Snowy Picture
Video head cleaning
Video head cleaning is needed when the playback picture becomes unclear. This signifies that the heads are getting
dirty and can occur when playing poor quality or damaged tapes. If the heads require cleaning, use an equivalent
high quality chemical non-abrasive (wet) head cleaning tape or have them cleaned professionally. If playing a head
cleaning tape in the unit once does not improve the picture, play it several times before requesting service.
otes
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE TOP COVER.
Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to produce clear pictures.
To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.
