Important notes for users in the U.K.
Mains plug
This apparatus is tted with an approved 13
Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of
plug proceed as follows:
1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2 Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362
5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3 Re t the fuse cover.
If the tted plug is not suitable for your
socket outlets, it should be cut off and an
appropriate plug tted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should
have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a
fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board
should not be greater than 5 Amp.
Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to
avoid a possible shock hazard should it be
inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured
with the following code: blue = neutral (N),
brown = live (L).
As these colours may not correspond with
the colour markings identifying the terminals
in your plug, proceed as follows:
– Connect the blue wire to the terminal
marked N or coloured black.
– Connect the brown wire to the terminal
marked L or coloured red.
– Do not connect either wire to the earth
terminal in the plug, marked E (or e) or
coloured green (or green and yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain
that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath
of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

avoid these problems, discs should be
cleaned on a regular basis.
To clean a disc, use a micro bre cleaning
cloth and wipe the disc from the centre
to the edge in a straight line.
CAUTION!
Do not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,
or anti-static sprays intended for discs.
HDD (Hard Disk Drive)
handling care
The hard disk drive (HDD) has a high
storage density that enables long
recording duration and high speed data
access. Depending on the setup
environment and handling, some content
may be damaged resulting in failure of

Record on Recordable DVD
IMPORTANT!
Unrecordable pictures
Television programmes, lms, video
tapes, discs, and other materials may be
copy-protected and therefore cannot be
recorded on this recorder.
Copying from HDD to a
recordable DVD
You can copy a recorded title(s) from the
HDD (hard disk drive) to a recordable
DVD.
The time taken to copy content from the
HDD to a recordable DVD depends on
the record quality of the HDD
recordings.
It is not possible to change the mode of
record quality during the copying
process. As such, it is important that you
choose the appropriate record quality
when you rst set up the recording to
the HDD.
The copying process is done at a higher
speed than the recording. The following
information will be stored on the disc :
– Title/name of recording
– Date of recording
– Time of recording
– Record quality mode/ length of
recording
– Index picture of title
Discs for recording
There are several formats of recordable
DVD discs which can be used with this
recorder:
DVD±RW (ReWritable DVD discs)
– Discs that are rewritable can be used
for multiple recordings once the existing
data has been erased.
DVD±R (Recordable DVD discs)
– Discs that can only be used for a single
recording. Each new recording is always
added at the end of all previous
recordings as existing recordings cannot
be overwritten.
– Editing can be made on DVD±R discs
as long as they have not been nalised.
– To play a DVD±R disc on another
DVD player, it must be nalised [see the
section “Playing your recordings on
other DVD players (DVD±R only)”].
After this is done, no more content can
be added to the disc.
TIPS: Ensure that there is suf cient space available on the DVD±R before recording. You have to nalise the
DVD±R before it can be played on other players, see “Edit Recordings – Recordable DVD”.

What kind of disc should I use for
recording?
You can record on both DVD±R and
DVD±RW discs. They are compatible with
DVD-Video players and DVD-ROM drives in
computers.
What is the capacity of a recordable
DVD disc?
4.7GB, or equivalent to 6 CDs. You can store
only one hour of recordings on a single disc at
the highest quality (DVD standard) and about
8 hours recordings at the lowest quality
(VHS standard).
What is the difference between
DVD±R and DVD±RW?
DVD±Rs are “recordable” discs and
DVD±RWs are “rewritable” discs. With a
DVD±R disc, you can record multiple sessions
on the same disc, but when the disc is full, you
cannot record any more content on the disc.
The DVD±RW disc allows you to record over
the same disc repeatedly.
What is DV?
Using DV, also known as i.LINK, you can
connect a DV-equipped camcorder to
this recorder using a single DV cable for
input and output of audio, video, data and
control signals.
– This recorder is only compatible with
DV-format (DVC-SD) camcorders. Digital
satellite tuners and Digital VHS video
recorders are not compatible.
– You cannot connect more than one DV
camcorder at any one time to this recorder.
– You cannot control this recorder from
external equipment connected via the
DV IN socket.
Can I copy a VHS tape or DVD
from an external player?
Yes, but only if the VHS tape or DVD is not
copy-protected.
What are Titles and Chapters?
A DVD disc contains Titles and Chapters,
which are similar to the Titles and Chapters of
a book. A Title is often a complete movie and
is broken down into Chapters, or individual
scenes from the movies.
Title
Chapter
Title
Chapter Chapter Chapter Chapter
cha
p
ter markers
A programme is recorded as a single title, it
may consist of one chapter or a few chapters
within a title, depending on the recording
settings.
How do I set up Titles and Chapters?
The recorder will automatically create a new
Title each time you start a new recording.
– For DVD recordings, you can add chapters
manually.
– For HDD recordings, you can preset
chapters to be automatically inserted at
5-minutes intervals.
What does “ nalizing” a disc do?
Finalizing a disc locks the disc so it can no
longer be recorded, only required for
DVD±Rs. It will then be compatible with
virtually any DVD player. To close a disc
without nalizing it, simply stop recording and
eject the disc. You will still be able to record
on the disc if there is capacity for more
recordings.
How good is the quality of the
recording?
There are seven modes of record quality levels
to choose from, ranging from “HQ” (1 hour
recording at high quality) to “SEP” (8 hours
recording at VHS quality) on a recordable
DVD. Choose the quality level that best suits
your purpose and the length of material.
