Disc Handling & Maintenance

Handling Precautions

• Hold the disc by the edges so the surface will not be soiled with fingerprints.

• Fingerprints, dirt and scratches can cause skipping and distortion.

Do not write on the label side with a ball-point pen or other

writing utensil.

• Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzine, thinner, static electricity prevention liquids, or any other solvent.

• Be careful not to drop or bend the disc.

Do not insert more than one disc in the disc tray.

• Do not try to close the disc tray when the disc is not installed properly.

• Be sure to store the disc in its original case when not in use.

If the surface is soiled

Wipe gently with a soft, damp (water only) cloth.

When wiping discs, always move the cloth from the center hole toward the outer edge. (If you wipe the disc using a circular motion, circular scratches are likely to occur, which will cause noise.)

If the disc is brought from a cold to a warm environment, moisture may form on the disc

Wipe moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth before using the disc.

Improper disc storage

You can damage discs if you store them in the following places:

Areas exposed to direct sunlight

Humid or dusty areas

Areas directly exposed to a heat outlet or heating appliance

Disc which cannot be played with this DVD Recorder+VCR

CD-ROM (Application Program)

CVD

Non-Region 1 encoded discs.

Maintenance

Be sure to turn the unit off and disconnect the AC power cord before maintenancing the unit.

Wipe this unit with a dry soft cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, wipe clean with a cloth which has been dipped in a weak soap-and-water solution and wrung out thoroughly, and then wipe again with a dry cloth.

Never use alcohol, benzine, thinner, cleaning fluid or other chemicals. And do not use compressed air to remove dust.

Power cord protection

To avoid any malfunctions of the unit, and to protect against electric shock, fire or personal injury, please observe the following:

Hold the plug firmly when connecting or disconnecting the AC power cord.

Keep the AC power cord away from heating appliances.

Never put any heavy object on the AC power cord.

Do not attempt to repair or reconstruct the AC power cord in any way.

Placement

Avoid placing the unit in areas of:

direct sunlight or heating radiators, or closed automobiles

high temperature (over 95°F) or high humidity (over 90%)

significant dust as the internal parts may be seriously damaged.

Non-use periods

When the unit is not being used, turn it off. When left unused for a long period of time, the unit should be unplugged from the household AC outlet.

No fingers or other objects inside

Touching internal parts of this unit is dangerous, and may cause serious damage to the unit. Do not attempt to disassemble the unit.

Do not put any foreign object in the disc tray.

Keep away from water

Keep the unit away from flower vases, tubs, sinks, etc. If liquids are spilled into the unit, serious damage could occur.

Keep away from magnets

Never bring a magnet or magnetized object near the unit.

Stacking

Place the unit in a horizontal position, and do not place anything heavy on it.

Condensation

Moisture may form on the lens in the following conditions:

immediately after a heater has been turned on

in a steamy or very humid room

when the unit is suddenly moved from a cold

environment to a warm one

If moisture forms inside this unit, it may not operate properly. In this case, turn on the power and wait about one hour for the moisture to evaporate.

If there is noise interference on the TV while a broadcast is being received

Depending on the reception condition of the TV, interference may appear on the TV monitor while you watch a TV broadcast and the unit is left on. This is not a malfunction of the unit or the TV. To watch a TV broadcast, turn off the unit.
