eWe recommend using Panasonic discs as they have been con-

firmed to be compatible with this unit. Other discs may not perform

correctly.

• Do not allow the disc to become dirty or scratched. Fingerprints,

dirt, dust, scratches or deposits of cigarette smoke on the record-

ing surface may make it impossible to use the disc for recording.

• Discs with programs recorded in PAL already cannot be recorded

on using this unit.

I DVD*RAM I

•DVD-RAM recorded on this unit may not be compatible with

other DVD players, including some Panasonic players. Con-

sult the manual for the player to determine compatibility with

these DVD.RAM discs.

• This unit is compatible with both non-cartridge and cartridge

DVD-RAM, but the write-protect tabs on cartridge4ype discs give

better protection to your recordings.

• Picture aspect ratios, regular 4:3 or widescreen 16:9, are recorded

as they are received.

I DVD*R I

•In order to play a DVD-R recorded using this unit on another

playback source, the disc must first be finalized (-)page 36).

• Once a DVD-R is finalized, it becomes DVD-Video.

• You can record onto the available space on the disc and perform

editing functions, such as giving titles to discs and programs and

erasing programs before finalizing.

• When programming is erased from a DVD-R, that space does not

become available. Once an area on a DVD-R is recorded on, that

area is no longer available for recording, whether the recording is

erased or not.

• It takes about 30 seconds for the unit to complete recording man-

agement information after recording finishes.

• This unit optimizes the DVD-R for each recording. Optimizing is

carried out when you start recording after inserting the disc or

turning on the unit. Recording onto the disc may become impossi-

ble if optimizing is carried out too many times.

• Play may be impossible in some cases due the condition of the

Follow the precautions indicated below to prevent damage to

the internal HDD. (Not following precautions may result in a

loss of recording, stop of operation or recording of noise.)

•During setup:

•Do not place in an enclosed area so the rear cooling fan and the

cooling vents on the side are covered up.

• Place the unit on a surface that is flat and not subject to vibration

or impact.

• Place in an area where condensation does not occur.

Condensation is a phenomenon where moisture forms on a cold

surface when there is an extreme change in temperature. Con-

densation may cause internal damage to the unit.

Conditions where condensation may occur

-During the rainy season in tropical and sub tropical areas.

-When there is high humidity or a lot of steam in the room.

-When there is an extreme change in temperature (moving

from a very hot location to a very cold location, or when an

extreme change in air conditioning or cooled air directly

impacts the unit.)

->In the above situation, with the power off, let the unit adjust to

the room temperature and wait 2-3 hours until condensation is

gone.

•While operating

• Do not remove the AC power plug from the AC outlet, or flip the

power breaker switch.

• Do not move the unit or subject to vibration or impact.

_When moving the unit:

Q Turn the power switch off (Wait until "BYE" disappears from the

display)

@ Remove the AC power plug from the AC outlet

_) Wait 2 minutes before moving

While the unit is on, the HDD will be spinning at high speed and it is

normal to hear sounds. These sounds are not problems.

•In the event of a power failure

if a powerfailure occurs, contents in the processof playback!record-

ing may be damaged.

•Safeguards against accidental loss

Data may be lost if the HDD suffersdamage. Any contents you wish

to keep permanently should be dubbed to DVD-RAM or DVD-R.

HDD recording time remaining I

This units records using a VBR (Variable bit recording) data com-

pression system to vary recorded data segments to match video

data segments which may cause differences in the displayed

amount of time and space remaining for recording.

if the remaining amount time is insufficient, erase any unwanted

programs to create enough space before you start recording. (Eras-

ing a playlist will not increase the amount of time.)
