Important Note for Users in the UK Mains plug This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows: 1 Remove fuse cover and fuse. 2 Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 3 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type. 3 Refit the fuse cover. If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 3 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 3 Amp. Note:The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere. How to connect a plug The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the fol- lowing code: blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L). As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings identifying the terminals in your plug, pro- ceed as follows: • Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured black. • Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured red. • Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug, marked E (or e) or coloured green (or green and yellow). Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

How are DVD+R and DVD+RW discs different? The essential difference between DVD+R and DVD+RW is that DVD+R is a record-once medium, while DVD+RW is a re-recordable/erasable medium. You can re-record/ erase a DVD+RW disc approximately 1,000 times. DVD+RW mode recording • 4 different picture quality/recording time settings avail- able (XP, SP, LP, EP) • Playable on regular DVD players • The edited contents is playable on regular DVD play- ers only after finalizing • Recordings can be edited the title/chapter DVD+R mode recording • 4 different picture quality/recording time settings avail- able (XP, SP, LP, EP) • Playable on regular DVD players (after finalizing) • Any edited contents are not be compatible on regular DVD players. (Hide, chapter combine, added chapter mark, etc.) • Limited title/chapter editing features

otes • This recorder cannot make recordings on CD-R or CD-RW discs. • Our company takes no responsibility for recording fail- ure due to power cuts, defective discs, or damage to the recorder. • Fingerprints and small scratches on a disc can affect playback and/or recording performance. Please take proper care of your discs. Disc types and recording formats, modes, and settings This recorder can play five different kinds of DVD disc: pre-recorded DVD-Video discs, DVD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+RW and DVD+R discs. The disc format for DVD-R discs is always “Video format”—the same as pre-record- ed DVD-Video discs. This means that once finalized, you can play a DVD-R in a regular DVD player. Notes for recording • The recording times shown are not exact because the recorder uses variable bit-rate video compression. This means that the exact recording time will depend on the material being recorded. • When recording a TV broadcast, if the reception is poor or the picture contains interference, the record- ing times may be shorter. • If you record still pictures or audio only, the recording time may be longer. • The displayed times for recording and time remaining may not always add up to exactly the length of the disc. • The recording time available may decrease if you heavily edit a disc. • The overwrite recording is available with DVD+RW disc. Disc type Disc format Recording mode Functions DVD-Video Video format n/a Playback only DVD+RW +RW Video format DVD+RW Playback, limited recording, Title/Chapter editing DVD+R +R Video format DVD+R Playback, limited recording, limited Title/Chapter editing

This recorder can record either NICAM or regular audio. If the NICAM setting (page 22) is set to Auto, then if the broadcast is NICAM, you can record the NICAM audio. If the broadcast is non-NICAM, the regular audio is always recorded. Restrictions on video recording • You cannot record copy-protected video using this recorder. Copy-protected video includes DVD-Video discs and some satellite broadcasts. If copy-protected material is encountered during a recording, recording will pause or stop automatically and an error message will be displayed on-screen. • NTSC format signals from the analog or the DV inputs is not recorded correctly with this recorder. • Video signals in SECAM format (from the built-in TV tuner or from the analog inputs) are recorded in PAL format.

Level 1 to 8: Some discs contain scenes not suit- able for children. If you set a rating for the recorder, all disc scenes with the same rating or lower will be played. Higher rated scenes will not be played unless an alternative scene is available on the disc. The alternative must have the same rating or a lower one.

We call files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.  The recorder can not read an MP3 file that has a file extension other than “.mp3”. MP3 Disc compatibility with this recorder is limited as follows: 1. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660” and “JOLIET”. 2. If you record MP3 files using the software which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example “Direct- CD” etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We recommend that you use “Easy-CD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 or JOLIET file system. 3. Total number of files and folders on the disc should be less than 999. This Recorder 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 files) that require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to insure compatible playback. Customers should also note that permission is required in order to download MP3 files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner. CD CD MP3 CD MP3 CD MP3 CD MP3 CD MP3 CD

The total number of files and folders are free but the total number of files on the folder should be less than 999.  Some discs may be incompatible due to different recording formats or the condition of the discs.  When you are using software such as “Easy CD Creator” to burn JPEG files on a CD-R, ensure that all selected files have the “.jpg” or “.jpeg” extension before copying them into the CD layout.  If the files have “.jpe” extensions, please rename them as “.jpg” or “.jpeg” files.
