8. Accessories - Do not place this product on an unstable

cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may

fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and

serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart,

stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the

manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting

of the appliance should follow the manufacturer's

instructions and should use a

of the product and to protect it from overheating,

and these openings must not be blocked or covered.

The openings should never be blocked by placing the

product should not be placed in a built-in installation

such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is

provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been

adhered to.

10. Power Sources - This product should be operated only

from the type of power source indicated on the marking

label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply

to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local

power company. For products intended to operate from

battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating

instructions.

11. Grounding or Polarization - This product is equipped

with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug

having one blade wider than the other). This plug will

fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety

feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the

outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized

plug.

12. Power Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be

routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or

pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying

particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience

receptacles, and the point where they exit from the

13. Lightning - For added protection for this product during

a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and

unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall

outlet. This will prevent damage to the product due to

lightning and power-line surges.

qualified technician to restore the product to its normal

operation.

e. If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.

f. When the product exhibits a distinct change in

performance this indicates a need for service.

PRECAUTIONS

Servicing

• Please refer to relevant topics on “TROUBLESHOOTING”

on pages 82-86 before returning the product.

• If this unit becomes inoperative, do not try to correct

the problem by yourself. There are no user-serviceable

parts inside. Turn off, unplug the power plug and

please call our help line mentioned on the front page

to locate an Authorized Service Center.

Cleaning the cabinet

• Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild

detergent solution. Do not use a solution containing

alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasive.

Cleaning discs

• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning

cloth. Wipe the disc from the center to out. Do not

wipe in a circular motion.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,

commercially available cleaners, detergent, abrasive

cleaning agents or antistatic spray intended for analog

records.

Cleaning the disc lens

• If this unit still does not perform properly

although you refer to the relevant sections and to

“TROUBLESHOOTING” in this owner's manual, the laser

optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult your dealer

or an Authorized Service Center for inspection and

cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.

Disc handling

• Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not

adhere to the surfaces of the discs.

• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is

not used.

Auto head cleaning

• Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or

remove a cassette, so you can see a clear picture.

• Playback picture may become blurred or interrupted

while the TV program reception is clear. Dirt

accumulated on the video heads after a long period of

use, or the usage of rental or worn tapes can cause this

problem. If a streaky or snowy picture appears during

playback, the video heads in your unit may need to be

cleaned.

Maintenance

1. Please visit your local Audio/Video store and purchase a

good quality VHS video head cleaner.

2. If a video head cleaner does not solve the problem,

please consult your dealer or an Authorized Service

Center.

Note

• Remember to read the instructions along with the video

head cleaner before use.

• Clean video heads only when problems occur.

IR signal check

If the remote control does not work properly, you can test

if the remote control sends out the infrared signal with

AM radio or a digital camera (including built-in camera

of cellular phone). It will help to define the cause of

malfunction.

• With an AM radio:

Tune an AM radio to a station with no

broadcasting. Press a button on remote

control toward the radio. Sound will be

fluttering when you press any key and the

radio receives the signal. This means the

remote control is working.

• With a digital camera (including built-in

camera of cellular phone):

Direct a digital camera to remote control,

press and hold a button on remote control. If

infrared light appears through digital camera,

the remote control is working.

• If you record a disc using a personal computer, even

if it is recorded in a compatible format it may not be

played back because of the settings of the

application software used to create the disc. (Check

with the software publisher for more detailed

information.)

• Since the recording is made by the VBR (variable bit

rate) method, depending on the picture you are

recording, the actual remaining time for recording

may be a little shorter than the remaining time

displayed on the TV screen.

• You cannot record copy-protected program using

this unit. (Copy-protected signal is included in DVD-

video or some satellite broadcasts.)

• You cannot record “copy-once only” program on

Analog Audio

An electrical signal that directly represents sound.

Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical

signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See also

“Digital Audio”.

Aspect Ratio

The width of a TV screen relative to its height.

Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the TV screen

is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the TV

screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).

Chapter

Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a

DVD is usually divided into chapters. See also “Title”.

Component Video Output

Each signal of luminance (Y) and component (PB/CB, PR/

CR) is independent to output so that you can experience

picture color as it is.

Also, due to compatibility with progressive video

(525p/480p), you can experience higher-density picture

than that in interlace (525i/480i).

Digital Audio

An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During

recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals

(44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog-

to-digital converter, generating a stream of numbers.

On playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates

an analog signal based on these numbers. See also

“Sampling Frequency” and “Analog Audio”.

Dolby Digital

The system to compress digital sound developed by

Dolby Laboratories. It offers you sound of stereo(2ch) or

multi channel audio.

Finalize

To make DVD, which have been recorded on, possible to

play back in DVD players. With this unit, it is possible to

finalize DVD+R, DVD-RW, and DVD-R.

MP3 (MPEG audio layer 3)

MP3 is a method of compressing files. You can copy MP3

files on CD-RW/-R from the computer and play back the

files on this unit.

PBC (playback control) (video CD only)

This function enables you to play back interactive

software using a menu screen. See also “Video CD”.

PCM (pulse code modulation)

The most common system of encoding digital audio,

found on CD and DAT. Excellent quality, but requires a

lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital

and MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio

recorders (CD, MD and DAT) and AV amplifiers with

digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital and

MPEG audio to PCM. See also “Digital Audio”.

Progressive Scan (525p/480p)

A type of display that does not split each frame into

fields, and instead scans directly through all the scanlines

of each frame in order. Progressive scan provides less

flickering and higher image resolution than traditional

(525i/480i) TV signals. Refer to page 77 for instructions on

selective progressive scan mode.

Region Code

Regions associate discs and players with particular areas

of the world. This unit will only play back discs that have

compatible region codes. You can find the region code

of your unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are

compatible with more than one region (or all regions).

Sampling Frequency

The rate which sound is measured by a specified interval

to turn into digital audio data. The numbers of sampling

in one second defines as sampling frequency. The higher

the rate, the better the sound quality.

S-Video Output

It delivers independently each signal of color(C) and

luminance(Y) to TV as video signals, so that higher-quality

picture will be gained.

Title (DVD only)

A collection of chapters on DVD. See also “Chapter”.

Track

Audio CD use tracks to divide up the content of a

disc. The DVD equivalent is called a chapter. See also

“Chapter”.

Video CD

A digital format for store video data in compact disc.
