Setup

When the power is turned on for the first time after changing the disc or battery, the unit carries out a recognition procedure to check that there are no problems with the disc. This takes approximately 25 seconds with DVD-RAM.

If you want to start using the unit as soon as you turn on the power, do the following.

1)Turn on the power.

2)After “READING DISC...” disappears from the screen, turn off the power.

You can start recording approximately

8 seconds after you turn on the power again.

Depending on the condition of the disc, it may take longer than this.

If the date and time are not set, it will take longer than usual before you can start recording.
