power on the unit. The green Power indicator will glow on the front panel display.
• Turn on your TV, and set it to the video input connected to the DVD Recorder.
• Turn on your audio system (if using an external amplifier/audio system), and set it to the input connected to the DVD Recorder.
1Press Open/Close on the remote control or front panel to open the disc tray.
2Insert a DVD+R or DVD+RW into the disc tray with the label side facing up.
• If you are using a DVD+R, it must be not be finalized. Once a DVD+R is full or finalized, it cannot be recorded on again.
3Press Open/Close again to close the disc tray.
• The unit will take a few moments to read the disc and then switch to Disc mode automatically.
• The disc menu for the D VD+R or DVD+RW will appear.

record the desired show, and adjust the Quality level if necessary (see Step 6 below).
