Limited warranty (US)
| The menus of your DVD recorder do not |
| appear in the language you want |
| • Check that your language is available in the |
EN | settings menu. If not, choose another |
| language. |
| You can’t access the selected menu, even |
| when you press OK |
| • If the name of the menu appears on a |
| transparent background, it means that the |
| corresponding menu or function is not |
| available. The Disc, Titles and Playlist menus |
| are contextual menus: they depend on |
| operations performed beforehand such as: |
| - Disc is only accessible if there is a disc in the |
| disc tray of your DVD recorder. |
| - Titles is only accessible once you have |
| recorded a TV program or video sequence |
| (from an external device). |
Your DVD recorder menu disappears
•As with computers, your DVD recorder has a screen saver which replaces the fixed menu by a mobile RCA logo. Press on a navigation key to bring back the fixed menu.
You can’t switch channels
•During the recording of a TV program (or video sequence from a connected device), switching channels is impossible. To change channels, you have to stop the recording completely.
In quiet moments, you hear a slight hum coming from your DVD recorder
•Your DVD recorder is equipped with a fan. It switches on as soon as your DVD recorder is turned on and produces a slight hum.
Other problems
If you forget your password
•Open the player’s disc tray and ensure that there is no disc on it. Close the tray. The player menu is now displayed on the TV screen. Now press the STOP key on your player and hold the STOP key on the remote control unit down for 3 seconds. The password that you chose for parental control is cancelled. The close padlock on your recorder’s display disappears.
DVD copy protections
In accordance with the DVD standard, your DVD recorder is equipped with a Copy Protection system, which can be triggered on and off by the DVD disc itself, in order to make any recording of the concerned DVD disc onto a videotape of very poor picture quality, or even impossible. “This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by method claims of certain U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners. Use of this copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision Corporation, and is intended for home use only unless otherwise authorized by Macrovision Corporation.
