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 video cassette. 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. MOISTURE CONDENSATION 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. Moisture condensation on the head drum will cause damage to the tape. In conditions where condensation may occur, keep the unit turned on for a few hours to let the moisture dry. 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. 3 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!

File Structure of Discs Care and Handling of Discs DVD VIDEO How to handle discs 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 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. Title1 Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Title2 Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Label side Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its surface. Storage Audio CD/Video CD Typically, Audio CD discs are divided into separate tracks each containing one song. Each track is assigned a number. For example, the third track is Track 3. The same is true for Video CD discs. Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4 NOTE: Video CD discs that support Playback Control (PBC) The still image or motion image which follows a menu screen is called a “scene.” Each scene has a scene number. For more details, refer to “Locating a Desired Scene Using the Menu of a Video CD/SVCD with Playback Control (PBC) Function” (墌 pg. 31). Placing a Disc 1 Open the disc tray. Press x on the DVD deck to open the disc tray. 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 If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center 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 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. ● The unit’s power comes on automatically. ● 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 in the disc tray. ● Do not press down strongly on the disc tray or place any heavy objects on it. 2 Place the disc. Place the disc in 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. 3 Press x on the DVD deck to close the disc tray. ● Pressing 4 also closes the disc tray. ● Playback begins automatically if an auto-playback DVD disc is loaded. Although the VHS deck is selected, the DVD deck is selected automatically (except when the VHS deck is in the timer mode or the Automatic Satellite Programme Recording mode.)

You can set “B.E.S.T.” to “ON” or “OFF” to your preference. (墌 pg. 53) Playback The unit assesses the quality of the tape once you initiate playback. ● The unit adjusts the playback picture quality based on the quality of the tape in use. ● B.E.S.T. is active during automatic tracking. “bESt” appears blinking on the front display panel. ● “bESt” only appears at the beginning of automatic tracking. Even though it doesn’t appear after that, the B.E.S.T. function is operative. Recording The unit assesses the quality of the tape once you initiate recording. ● The unit spends approximately 7 seconds assessing the condition of the tape, then begins recording. ATTENTION Since the B.E.S.T. system works before recording actually starts, there is a delay of approximately 7 seconds after 7 and 4 on the remote control are pressed, or 7 on the unit is pressed. To make sure you record the desired scene or programme in its entirety, first perform the following steps: A Press and hold 9 and press 7 to engage the Record Pause mode. ● The unit then automatically checks the condition of the tape and, after approximately 7 seconds, re-enters Record Pause mode. B Press 4 to start recording. If you want to bypass the B.E.S.T. system and begin recording immediately, set “B.E.S.T.” to “OFF.” (墌 pg. 53) November 18, 2004 10:44 pm Filename [XV48EK_07S-VHS.fm] Masterpage:Left+ XV48EK_01.book Page 24 Thursday, November 18, 2004 10:45 PM 24 VIDEO Plus+ Timer Programming ® With the VIDEO Plus+ system, timer programming is greatly simplified because each TV programme has a corresponding code number which your unit is able to recognize.

(墌 pg. 27) ● If there is a conflict in the timer schedule and one programme overlaps with another, the programme starting earlier or programme with the lower programme number will be recorded. 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 F on page 24 and step I on page 26. NOTES: ● When you use Express 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. Satellite Receiver Users To timer-record a satellite broadcast using the VIDEO Plus+ system: A Set “L-2 SELECT” to “A/V.” (墌 pg. 54) B Perform steps A – H.

(Biconditional Equalised Signal Tracking) system to “ON” or “OFF.” (墌 pg. 23) NOTES: ● When watching a tape recorded with “B.E.S.T.” set to “ON,” it is recommended that you leave B.E.S.T. on during playback as well. ● When watching a rental tape or one recorded on another video recorder, or when using this unit as the player for editing, set B.E.S.T. to your preference. ● The B.E.S.T. system works for both SP and LP modes only after a tape has been inserted and the Record mode is first initiated. It does not work during recording. ● The B.E.S.T. system does not work while Automatic Satellite Programme Recording is in progress. (墌 pg. 28) ● In the case of timer recordings, the B.E.S.T. system works before recording is initiated. ● Once the cassette is ejected, the B.E.S.T. data is cancelled. The next time the cassette is used for recording, B.E.S.T. is reperformed. ● Pressing the unit’s 7 button while “BEST” is displayed does not start Instant Timer Recording. (墌 pg. 22) 8 PICTURE CONTROL— AUTO / EDIT / SOFT This feature helps you to adjust the playback picture quality according to your preference.

SOFT: Reduces image coarseness when viewing overplayed tapes containing a lot of noise. 8 AUTO SP]LP TIMER — ON / OFF When this function is set to “ON”, the unit automatically switches to LP mode to allow complete recording if there is not enough tape to record the entire programme while timerrecording in SP mode. For Example: Recording a programme of 210 minutes in length onto a 180minute tape Approximately 150 minutes Approximately 60 minutes SP mode LP mode Total 210 minutes Make sure you set this function to “ON,” before the timerrecording starts. NOTES: ● If you have programmed the unit to timer-record 2 or more programmes, the second programme and those thereafter may not fit on the tape if you set “AUTO SP]LP TIMER” to “ON.” In this case, make sure the mode is not engaged, then set the tape speed manually during timer programming. ● In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the tape. ● There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on the tape where the unit switches from SP to LP mode. ● The Auto SP]LP Timer feature is not available during ITR (Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work properly with any tapes longer than E-180, or with some tapes of shorter lengths. ● If you perform timer recording with both PDC and the Auto SP]LP Timer activated, and the programme goes beyond its originally scheduled length, there may be times when the programme cannot be recorded in its entirety. NOTES: ● When you select “EDIT” or “SOFT,” the selected mode will not change until you select another mode. ● When you select “EDIT” to dub tapes, be sure to select “AUTO” after you finish dubbing the tapes. ● When “B.E.S.T.” is “OFF”, “PICTURE CONTROL” switches automatically from “AUTO” to “NORM.” 8 O.S.D. — ON / OFF When this function is set to “ON,” various operational indicators appear on the TV screen. NOTES: ● When you use this unit as the source player for editing, be sure to set “O.S.D.” to “OFF” before starting. ● During playback, the operation mode indicators may be disturbed depending on the type of tape being used. 8 DIRECT REC — ON / OFF When this function is set to “ON,” you can easily start recording the programme that you are watching on your TV.
