Troubleshooting

If your product malfunctions, go through the checkpoints below before contacting a Hitachi authorized service center.

Power

The input is displayed for a while

 

when the power is turned on.

The DVD recorder requires some time to initialize and the input will be displayed for approx. 10 seconds after it is turned on.

Recording

Cannot record TV programs.

• Check whether the power cord is securely plugged

 

 

into the power outlet.

 

 

• Did you set the DVD recorder channel settings

 

 

correctly?

 

 

• Check the free space on your DVD-RAM/DVD-

 

 

RW/DVD-R discs.

I pressed the REC button but there is no response.

Recording is possible for DVDRAM/DVD-RW/DVD-R discs only. If a program is copy protected, it cannot be recorded.

Differences between Using REC PAUSE Button and Using Stop Button during Recording

Each press of the Stop button during recording creates a title. When the REC PAUSE button is pressed, the paused state is kept. When the REC Pause button is pressed again during REC pause, the title under pause will be kept recording.

Playback

Cannot play the disc.

• Check whether the disc is inserted correctly with

 

 

the label facing up.

 

 

• Check the regional code of the DVD disc.
