MOISTURE CONDENSATION
The STANDBY/ON 1 button does not completely
shut off mains power from the unit, but switches
operating current on and off. “`” shows electrical
power standby and “!” shows ON.

When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or a shelf,
make sure that it has sufficient space on all sides to allow
for ventilation (10 cm or more on both sides, on top and
at the rear).
When discarding batteries, environmental problems must
be considered and the local rules or laws governing the
disposal of these batteries must be followed strictly.
Failure to heed the following precautions may result in
damage to the unit, remote control or disc.
1. DO NOT place the unit —
— in an environment prone to extreme temperatures
or humidity.
— in direct sunlight.
— in a dusty environment.
— in an environment where strong magnetic fields are
generated.
— on a surface that is unstable or subject to vibration.
2. DO NOT block the unit’s ventilation openings or
holes.
(If the ventilation openings or holes are blocked by a
newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to
get out.)
3. DO NOT place heavy objects on the unit or remote
control.
4. DO NOT place anything which might spill on top of
the unit or remote control.
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment,
fire or electric shock may be caused.)
5. DO NOT expose the apparatus to dripping or
splashing.
6. DO NOT use this equipment in a bathroom or places
with water. Also DO NOT place any containers filled
with water or liquids (such as cosmetics or medicines,
flower vases, potted plants, cups, etc.) on top of this
unit.
7. DO NOT place any naked flame sources, such as
lighted candles, on the apparatus.
8. AVOID violent shocks to the unit during transport.

Page 3

Moisture in the air will condense on the unit when you
move it from a cold place to a warm place, or under
extremely humid conditions—just as water droplets form
on the surface of a glass filled with cold liquid. In
conditions where condensation may occur, disconnect
the unit’s power plug from the wall and keep it
disconnected for a few hours to let the moisture dry, then
turn on the unit.

ATTENTION:

To mobile phone users:
Using a mobile phone in the vicinity of the unit may
cause picture vibration on the TV screen or change
the screen to a blue back display.
On placing the unit:
Some TVs or other appliances generate strong
magnetic fields. Do not place such appliances on top
of the unit as it may cause picture disturbance.

IMPORTANT
Connection to the mains supply in the United
Kingdom.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment.
If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in
your home or the cable is too short to reach a power
point, then obtain a proper safety approved extension
lead/adapter or consult your dealer.
In the unlikely event of the plug fuse failing be sure to
replace the fuse only with an identical approved type,
as originally fitted, and to replace the fuse cover. If
the fuse fails again consult your nearest JVC dealer.
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off remove the fuse
and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a
possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to
the mains supply.

If this product is not supplied fitted with a mains
plug then follow the instructions given below:
DO NOT make any connection to the Larger Terminal
coded E or Green.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
Blue to N (Neutral) or Black
Brown to L (Live) or Red

If these colours do not correspond with the terminal
identifications of your plug, connect as follows:
Blue wire to terminal coded N (Neutral) or coloured
Black.
Brown wire to terminal coded L (Live) or coloured
Red.
If in doubt — consult a competent electrician.

SAFETY FIRST (cont.)

Some Do’s And Don’ts On The Safe Use
Of Equipment
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any
electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.
DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.
DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections
between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug when making or changing connections.
DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your
equipment.
DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is
damaged in any way — switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed
for unattended operation or has a standby mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and
make sure that your family knows how to do this. Special arrangements may need to be made for
infirm or handicapped people.
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements
of road safety. It is illegal to watch television whilst driving.
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently damage your hearing.
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings.
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws — to ensure complete safety always fit
the manufacturer’s approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.
ABOVE ALL...
— NEVER let anyone especially children push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the
case — this could result in a fatal electrical shock;
— NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind — it is better to be safe than
sorry!

Recording Medium and Format

File Structure of Discs

DVD-RAM

DVD VIDEO

● Recording and erasing can be performed as many times as
possible on a disc.
● Editing can be performed after recording, such as deleting
unwanted parts.
● While recording, it is possible not only to start playback of a
programme currently being recorded, but also to watch
another programme previously recorded.

DVD-RW (VR mode)

● Recording and erasing can be performed as many times as
possible on a disc.
● Editing can be performed after recording, such as deleting
unwanted parts.

DVD-RW (Video mode)

● Can be played back on other DVD players.
● New recording can be performed by erasing all the data on a
disc once played back.

DVD-R

● Can be played back on other DVD players.
● Suitable when keeping a recorded disc for a long time.

Typically, DVD VIDEO discs are made up of larger units called
“titles”. Each title has a number (title number) that can be used
to select desired titles. Titles are further divided into units called
“chapters”. Each chapter has a number (chapter number) that
can also be used to select desired chapters. Note that some discs
are not divided into titles and chapters.
When you record a programme on a DVD-RAM/RW (VR mode)
disc
A single recording session results in a single title (a single
chapter). However, chapter marks are automatically inserted
when recording is paused, or audio changes from monaural or
bilingual to stereo due to commercial breaks, etc. It is also
possible to insert chapter marks at desired locations during
playback. (墌 pg. 34)
When you record a programme on a DVD-R/RW (Video mode)
disc
A single recording session results in a single title (a single
chapter). However, chapter marks are automatically inserted
when recording is paused, or audio changes due to commercial
breaks, etc. It is also possible to insert chapter marks at desired
locations during either recording or playback. Once the disc has
been finalised, these chapter marks are deleted and new chapter
marks are assigned automatically approximately every 5
minutes.

When handling a disc, do
not touch the surface of the
disc. Since discs are made
of plastic, they are easily
damaged. If a disc gets dirty,
dusty, scratched or warped,
the images and sound will
not be picked up correctly,
and such a disc may cause the unit to malfunction.

Label side
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any
adhesives on its surface.

How to handle discs

Remote control

● Pressing the button on the unit or on the remote control again
closes the disc tray.
● Use the buttons on the unit or on the remote control to open
and close the disc tray.
● Do not block the disc tray with your hand while it is opening
or closing as this may result in hardware failure.
● Do not place unplayable discs or any object other than a disc
on the disc tray.
● Do not press down strongly on the disc tray or place any heavy
objects on it.

Discs without cartridges

Recording side
Make sure that discs are not scratched and dirty on the recording
side before use. Scratches and dirt on the recording side of a disc
may hinder proper playback and recording. Also be careful that
a DVD-RAM disc may get scratched or dirt when removed from
cartridge then put back in after use.

Storage
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on
top of one another without their protective cases, they can be
damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be
exposed to direct sunlight, or in a place where the humidity or
temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!

Maintenance of discs
REC MODE

PULL - OPEN

1 STANDB

Y/ON

Disc tray
Place the disc on the disc tray with the label side facing up.
Since disc size changes depending on the disc to be played
back, be sure to correctly align the disc with the grooves for its
size. If the disc is not in its groove, it may be scratched or
otherwise damaged. To insert an 8 cm disc, place it according to
the inner groove.

If there are fingerprints or other dirt
adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry
cloth, moving from the centre outwards.
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a
cloth moistened with water. Never use
record cleaners, petrol, alcohol or any
anti-static agents.

CAUTION
Sometimes during playback, noise may appear or images
may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may not
be up to industry standards.)
These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the
malfunction of the unit.

DVD-RAM discs contained in cartridges
Double-sided discs:
Align the cartridge with the grooves on the disc tray as shown in
the illustration and insert with the label side you wish to play
back or record facing up. If you insert the disc with label “Side

Recording Speed
MPEG2 format is used as recording format. As a guide for picture
quality, the “bps” unit is used to represent how much data can
be recorded per second. The larger this value is, the better the
picture quality becomes but more capacity is required for the
recording. Select XP or SP for programmes where quick
movement occurs, such as sports programmes, and LP or EP for
talk shows, etc. with relatively less movement.
The recording speeds for a 4.7 GB disc are set as follows:

10 Mbps

1 hour

Free Rate Function

NOTES:

To record the entire programme, the unit automatically set the
appropriate recording speed depending on the combination of
the total time of the programme to be recorded and either the
remaining disc space or the specified recording time (from 60
minutes to 480 minutes).

To record the entire programme within the actual
remaining disc space
Select “FR (JUST)” in a recording speed selection procedure.
(墌 pg. 57, 59)
● Note that this function is available only for timer programming
recording.

To record the entire programme by specifying the
desired recording time
Select “FR60–FR360”, “FR420” or “FR480” in a recording speed
selection procedure. (墌 pg. 53, 57, 59)

To record a 25-min. long daily programme five times just
on a same disc for example

Perform “VIDEO Plus+ Timer Programming” (墌 pg. 56)
procedure. Be sure to set the recording speed to “FR125” and set
Weekly/Daily Rec Function to “MON–FRI” in step E to fit the
total recording time to the whole disc space.
®

● You can programme this unit to timer-record, regardless of the
disc remaining time. When the disc remaining time is not
enough, recording may stop in the middle of a programme. To
avoid this, make sure of the disc remaining time before setting
timer-programming.
(Example) If you programmed to timer-record for 60 minutes
in SP mode on a 120-minute disc, the disc remaining time
would be 30 minutes in XP mode, 60 minutes in SP mode,
120 minutes in LP mode, 180 minutes in EP mode, and 240
minutes in FR480 mode. Timer-recording will not complete
beyond these remaining times.
● The maximum recording time of FR (JUST) mode is the same
as the recording time of FR480 mode. When timerprogramming a long programme in FR (JUST) mode on a disc
whose remaining time is short, it is recommended checking
the disc remaining time in FR480 mode to see if the remaining
time is enough for the programme.
● Even if more than one programme are timer-programmed in
FR (JUST) mode, only the first one is recorded.
● In order to ensure that the recording fits on the disc, this
feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of
the disc.
● There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point
on the disc where the unit switches the mode.

Selection of the audio channel to be
recorded on a disc
When a programme is recorded on a DVD-RAM or DVD-RW
disc in VR mode, all audio channels of the receiving programme
are recorded on the disc. When you record a programme on a
DVD-R or DVD-RW disc in video mode, select the desired audio
channel (from among “NICAM 1/MAIN”, “NICAM 2/SUB”,
“MONO”) to be recorded on the disc. (墌 pg. 94)

NOTE:

Before playing back a programme recorded in stereo, or a
bilingual programme, refer to “Audio Channel Selection” on
page 36.

Satellite Receiver Users
To timer-record a satellite broadcast using Manual Timer
Programming:
A Perform “Satellite Receiver Control Setting” on page 28.
B Perform “Manual Timer Programming”. In step G, press

C Leave the satellite receiver’s power on.

PDC Recording
Now available from some TV stations, PDC (Programme
Delivery Control) is a service designed to assure safe,
accurate timer recording. With this system, special code
signals are transmitted together with the audio/video signals.
These code signals control your unit and have precedence
over the advertised times which you may have preset into the
timer. This means that your unit will start and stop recording
when the preset TV programmes actually start and end —
even if the broadcast time of a preset TV programme is
changed from what has been advertised. PDC is currently
available nationally on BBC1, BBC2, Ch.4 and Ch.5, except
from a few small relay transmitters. Ch.3 operates a PDC
service in some areas. All channels intend to offer this
service in due course. Check your TV programme listing
guide for latest information. If the channel you intend to
record does not offer a PDC service your unit will not start
recording if PDC has been selected. Be sure to set PDC to
“OFF” if PDC is not available on your selected channel.
(See step H on page 59.)

NOTES:

● When you use Manual Timer Programming, set the start
time (PDC time) exactly as advertised in the TV listing. A
different time than advertised will result in no recording.
● PDC recording is also possible when a satellite receiver or
a cable system is connected to L-2 IN/DECODER
connector on your unit.
● PDC recording is also possible via the L-1 IN/OUT
connector.

B Place a recordable disc on the disc tray.
On-Disc Timer Programming is a function used with discs that
are especially intended for a specific programme. The disc is
then programmed for a programme you always watch every day

overwritten, a single DVD-RAM/RW (VR mode) disc can be used
without worrying about how much recording capacity remains.
(墌 pg. 62, “How discs are overwritten”)
You can programme each disc to timer-record as many as
8 programmes.

Before performing On-Disc Timer Programming:
● Turn on the unit.
● Turn on the TV and select the AV mode.
● Slide the TV/CABLE/SAT/DVD switch to DVD.
● Make sure that the unit’s built-in clock is set properly.

ATTENTION:

● On-Disc Timer Programming is possible only with the disc
for On-Disc Timer Programming.

sure not to engage the Automatic Satellite Programme
Recording mode; otherwise, the unit will start recording
when the connected appliance’s power is turned on.
● Automatic Satellite Programme Recording and
timer-recording cannot be done at the same time.

Before performing the following steps:

● Make sure the satellite receiver is connected to the unit’s L-2
IN/DECODER connector. (墌 pg. 90)
● Programme the timer on the satellite receiver.
● Slide the TV/CABLE/SAT/DVD switch to TV.

through automatic adjustments at regular intervals, by
reading data from a PDC signal.
The Just Clock option can be set to “ON” or “OFF” at the
Clock Set screen (the default setting is “OFF”). (墌 pg. 105)
IMPORTANT: If you turn off Just Clock, the accuracy of your

GLOSSARY
8 Aspect ratio

8 Multiangle

The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed image.
The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3, and
that of wide-screens is 16:9.

By recording multiple scenes progressing at the same time in a
single title, the user can select view angles. This feature is called
the multiangle function.

8 Chapter

8 Multichannel

Refers to individual chapters included in a title.

DVD is specified to have each sound track constitute one sound
field. Multichannel refers to a structure of sound tracks having
three or more channels.

8 Composite video signal
Refers to video signal comprised of three kinds of signals
combined: an image signal made up of luminance and
chrominance signals using the frequency multiplication
technique; burst signal providing the basis for colour
reproduction; and synchronization signal.

8 Component video signal
A video signal system where parts of information necessary for
reproducing image signal comprised of the three primary
colours of light are transmitted via separate signal lines. Types of
signal, such as R/G/B, Y/PB/PR, etc., are available.

8 Disc menu
A screen display prepared for allowing selection of images,
sounds, subtitles, multiangles, etc. recorded on a DVD disc.

8 Dolby Digital (AC-3)
A six-channel system consisting of left, centre, right, left rear,
right rear and LFE (Low-Frequency Effect channel, for use with a
sub-woofer) channels. All processing is done in the digital
domain.
Not all Dolby Digital discs contain six (5.1) channels of
information.

8 Down-mix
Internal stereo mix of multichannel surround audio by a DVD
player. The down-mix signals are output from stereo output
connectors.

8 DTS

the U.S.A., Canada, Mexico and Japan.

8 PAL (Phase Alternation by Line)
A colour television system format used extensively in Western
Europe.

8 Parental Lock
A feature of this system to automatically determine whether or
not to reproduce particular DVD software by comparing its
parental lock level (a measure of undesirability of scenes, etc.
from educational viewpoint) set for the software beforehand
with that set on this system by the user; if the software’s level is
less restrictive than the user-set level, it will be reproduced.

8 Playback control (PBC)
Refers to the signal recorded on Video CD/SVCDs for controlling
reproduction. By using menu screens recorded on a Video CD/
SVCD that supports PBC, you can enjoy interactive-type
software as well as software having a search function.

8 Progressive scan
Progressive scan displays all the horizontal lines of a picture at
one time, as a single frame. This system can convert the
interlaced video from DVD into progressive format for
connection to a progressive display. It dramatically increases the
vertical resolution.

8 Region Code

In the conventional video system, a picture is shown on the
display monitor in two halves. The Interlaced scan system places
lines of the second half of the picture in-between lines of the first
half of the picture.

A system for allowing discs to be played back only in the regions
designated beforehand. All the countries in the world are
grouped into six regions, each region being identified by a
specified Region Code (or region number). If the Region Code
given to a disc includes a numeral which matches one in the
Region Code of a player, the player can play back the disc.

8 JPEG

8 Sampling frequency

A still-picture data compression system proposed by the Joint
