the reader unit in the device may be soiled. Use
a commercially-available cleaning disc.
Always keep the disc drawer closed to prevent
dust getting into the drawer and onto the lens.

Advantages of connection
to a Loewe TV set
You can use Digital Link to install the DVD
recorder e.g. in an enclosed rack or a wall unit,
without there being direct visible contact with the
DVD recorder. Using the DVD remote control, you
can operate the DVD recorder via the Loewe televi-
sion. To do this, Digital Link must be switched on
at the DVD recorder (see page 17).
If you want to make timer recordings from the
satellite tuner in the television, the recording is
controlled by Digital Link.
Digital Link Plus enables channel data to be
transferred from the television‘s satellite and cable
channels to the DVD recorder, so that the same
channels appear in the same channel position.
This means that timer recordings of satellite and
cable channels can easily be programmed from
the television using the EPG (Electronic Program
Guide). The timer data is copied to the DVD re-
corder, which then, independently of the television,
carries out the timer recording. With timer data for
satellite stations, the television starts and stops the
DVD recorder and sets it to the Euro AV 1 input.
If playback begins, this is immediately shown on
the television, no matter which TV channel you are
currently watching (if the television is switched off,
it will automatically switched on).
