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. 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 unit 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 is working.

Note
This recorder cannot record CD-R or CD-RW discs. DVD+RW/R, DVD-RW/R and CD-RW/R discs recorded on a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder may not play if the disc is damaged or dirty or if there is dirt of condensation on the players lens. If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a compatible format, there are cases in which it may not play because of the settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check with the software publisher for more detailed information.) DVD-RW/R discs recorded in Video mode cannot be recorded additionally using the unit. Since the recording is made by the variable bit rate (VBR) 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 OSD. You cannot record copy-protected video using this unit. (Copy-protected video includes DVDVideo discs and some satellite broadcasts.) You cannot record videos that includes copyonce only signal.

Re-connect the connecting cords securely. Check if the connecting cords are damaged. If Setup menu appears on the TV screen, press [RETURN ] to exit. Check the connection to your TV (page 13). Check if the Progressive Scan mode is set correctly according to your TV (page 68). Switch the input selector on your TV (such as to EXT1) so that the signal from the unit appears on the TV screen. The disc is dirty or flawed. If the picture output signal from the unit passes through your VCR to get to your TV, or if you are connected to a combination TV/VIDEO player, the copy-protection signal applied to some DVD programs could affect picture quality. If you still experience this problem even when you connect the unit directly to your TV, try connecting the unit to your TV's S-VIDEO input. Try to set the channels with Auto Channel Preset or Manual Channel Preset in the Setup menu (pages 18-19). Select a channel of any TV program using [CH K / L]. Adjust TV antenna. Adjust the picture (see the TVs instruction manual). Place the unit and TV farther apart. Place the TV and any bunched antenna cables farther apart. Switch the input to TV.

Symptom Playback The disc does not play. Remedy No disc is inserted. A blank disc is inserted. The disc is upside down. Insert the disc with the labeled side facing up. The disc is not correctly inserted. The unit cannot play certain discs (such as a CD-ROM) (page 38). The region code on the DVD-Video does not match the unit (page 38). Moisture has condensed inside the unit. Remove the disc and leave the unit turned on for about two hours until the moisture evaporates (page 4). If the disc was recorded on another recorder, the unit cannot play the disc if it was not finalized. During the playback of two layered disc, picture may freeze for a moment when the 1st layer switches to the 2nd layer. This is not a malfunction. Resume play was activated (page 42). Press [STOP C] twice. You have inserted a disc whose Title menu or DVD menu automatically appears on the TV screen when it is first insert. The DVD-Video features an auto playback function. Depending on the disc, you may not be able to do some of the operations. See the instruction manual supplied with the disc. Multilingual tracks are not recorded being played. The DVD-Video prohibits the changing of the language for the sound track. Try changing the language using the DVD-Videos menu. Multilingual subtitle are not recorded on the DVD-Video. The DVD-Video prohibits changing of the subtitles. Try changing the subtitle using the DVD-Videos menu. Multi-angles are not recorded on the DVD-Video being played. The angle-change operation is whenever possible as long as the disc contains a multi-angle portion. Actual change will be performed when the portion has come up. The DVD-Video prohibits changing angles. Try changing the angle using the DVD-Video's menu. Set the TVs input to TV. A brand-new DVD+RW or DVD-RW has been inserted. It takes a while for the unit to automatically format a DVD+RW/-RW. There was a power failure during recording.

Glossary
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.
Dolby Digital
The system to compress digital sound developed by Dolby Laboratories. It offers you sound of stereo(2ch) or Multi-channel audio.
Regions code
Regions associate discs and players with particular areas of the world. This unit will only play 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).
Finalize
To make DVD discs, which have been recorded on, possible to play in DVD players. With this unit, it is possible to finalize DVD-RW/ DVD-R/DVD+R/discs.
Connections
Aspect ratio
The width of a TV screen relative to its height. Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the screen is almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).
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 as possible as it is.
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)

MP3 is a method of compressing files. You can copy MP3 files on CD-RW/R discs from the computer and play the files on this unit.
Getting started
Chapter
Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on a DVD disc is usually divided into chapters. See also Title.
PBC (Playback Control) (Video CD only)

This function enables you to play back interactive software using a menu screen. See also Video CD.
SAP
(Secondary Audio Program) Sub-audio channel which is delivered separately from mainaudio channel. This audio channel is used as an alternate in bilingual broadcasting.
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).
Recording
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-todigital 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.
PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) The most common system of encoding digital audio, found on CDs 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 68 for instructions on selective Progressive Scan mode.
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. Playing discs
Title (DVD only)

A collection of chapters on DVD disc. See also chapter.
Track
Editing Audio CDs use tracks to divide up the content of a disc. The DVD equivalent is called a chapter. See also Chapter.
Video CD
The contents of a Video CD. When playing back a Video CD with the PBC function, the title menu will appear automatically. Changing the Setup menu
Frequently Asked Questions

Can I record to CD-RW/R? No, this unit records only DVDs. Can I play DVD-Video that is bought in another country? Possible when the region code of the disc is 1 and All. Is this unit JPEG compatible? No. Can I connect the unit to my PC? No, you cannot control the unit by PCs. EN
