Connection notes

•) Do not connect the power cord until all connections are complete.

•) For the best results when playing DVDs, connect the DVD recorder’s video output directly to your TV. If you connect your TV via your VCR, the DVD copy protection system may affect the picture quality.

•) To enjoy the surround sound capabilities offered by DVD (Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG-2), you need to connect one of the DVD recorder’s digital audio outputs to an AV amp with an appropriate surround-sound decoder built-in. See “Surround sound connections” on page 17.

•) For synchronized recordings to other components connected with digital audio cables, the length of each track and track numbers of the recorded materials may become different from the originals. Occasionally, it does not start recording.
