loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or dam-
aged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions could
result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance,
and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue
use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement
part by an LG authorized service centre. Protect the power cord from physical
or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door,
or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point
where the cord exits the appliance. To disconnect power from the mains, pull
out the mains cord plug. When installing the product, ensure that the plug is
easily accessible.

Notes on discs
Depending on the conditions of the recording equipment or the CD-R/RW (or
DVD±R/RW) disc itself, some CD-R/RW (or DVD±R/RW) discs cannot be
played on the unit.
Do not attach any seal or label to either side (the labeled side or the record-
ed side) of a disc.
Do not use irregularly shaped CDs (e.g., heart-shaped or octagonal). Doing
so may result in malfunctions.
Depending on the recording software & the finalization, some recorded discs
(CD-R/RW or DVD±R/RW) may not be playable.
DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW and CD-R/RW discs recorded using a personal
computer or a DVD or CD Recorder may not play if the disc is damaged or
dirty, or if there is dirt or condensation on the Unit’s 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.)
This unit requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards
in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are auto-
matically set to these standards. There are many different types of record-
able disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files) and these
require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to ensure compatible
playback.
Customers should note that permission is required in order to download
MP3 / WMA files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to
grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copy-
right owner.

General about connection
Picture and sound
Digital TV is a transmission technology that replaces the traditional analogue
technique.
This means that several TV channels, radio channels and other digital services
can be transmitted on the same space as just one channel took up before. As a
consumer you get access to many more channels and services than before at
the same time as they are received with perfect picture and audio quality.
The recorder converts the digital signal into a format that is suitable for your TV
and sound system.
Connecting your recorder is just as simple as connecting for example a video
recorder. You get the best picture quality by using a HDMI cable for connection
to your TV-set. The best audio experience is obtained by connecting an optical
cable to your sound system.
Coverage
Before buying this product it is anticipated that you have made sure that there
are digital transmissions covering your region.
Antenna / Signal source
Depending on the reception your recorder may be connected to a simple indoor
antenna or to an existing outdoor antenna system. If you live in a flat you should
make sure that the digital terrestrial signals are distributed to your wall antenna
outlet. If you have your own antenna system you must make sure that it is
equipped with antennas, filter and/or amplifier that can handle those frequen-
cies that the digital channels are transmitted on.
Cable-TV
Please observe that this recorder is not designed for the reception of regular
digital cable-TV signals (QAM-signal). Despite this, operators of smaller cable
networks may have chosen to distribute the digital terrestrial signals
(COFDM signal) in the network. In this case this recorder may well be used.
Check with your landlord if you are insecure about what type of TV-signal that is
provided in the wall antenna outlet.
Component connection
Connect one end of the component (Y PB PR) cables to the COMPONENT
OUTPUT jacks on the unit and other ends to the COMPONENT INPUT jacks on
your TV.
Connect one end of the audio cables (red and white) to the analog AUDIO
OUTPUT jacks on the unit and other ends to the AUDIO INPUT jacks on your
TV.
If your television is a high-definition or “digital ready” television, you may take
advantage of the unit’s progressive scan output for the highest video resolution
possible. If your TV does not accept the Progressive Scan format, the picture
will appear scrambled with the progressive signal.
Set the resolution to 576p using RES. button on the front panel to obtain the
progressive signal.
RH397D-W_BAUSLL_ENG 6/16/08 1:31 PM Page 10
11
S-Video connection
Connect one end of the S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO OUTPUT jack on the
unit and the other end to the S-VIDEO INPUT jack on your TV.
Connect one end of the audio cables (red and white) to the analog AUDIO
OUTPUT jacks on the unit and the other ends to the AUDIO INPUT jacks on
your TV.
Digital audio connection
Connecting to an amplifier/receiver, Dolby Digital/MPEG/DTS decoder or other
equipment with a digital input.
Connect one end of the digital audio cables (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) to the digi-
tal audio output jack (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) on the unit and other end to the
digital audio input jack (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) on your amplifier.
This recorder does not perform internal (2 channel) decoding of a DTS sound
track . To enjoy DTS multi channel surround, you must connect this recorder to
a DTS compatible receiver via one of this recorder’s digital audio output.

HDMI connection
Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI OUTPUT jack on the unit and
other end to the HDMI INPUT jack on your TV.
When you use the HDMI connection, you can change the resolution (576i,
576p, 720p,1080i or 1080p) for the HDMI output by pressing RES. button
repeatedly
.
About HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports both video and audio on a
single digital connection for use with DVD Players, Set-Top Boxes, and other AV

and received.
HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced, or high-definition video
plus standard to multi-channel surround-sound audio, HDMI features include
uncompressed digital video, a bandwidth of up to 5 gigabytes per second, one
connector (instead of several cables and connectors), and communication
between the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.
HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks

Back up important recordings stored on the HDD to a DVD.
Make a DVD copy of a recording on the HDD to play in another player.
Transfer video from a DVD to the HDD for editing.

About ‘Fast’ copying
Copying between DVD and HDD is a completely digital process and therefore
involves no loss of quality in the audio or video. This allows high speed copying
for ease and convenience.
When copying from HDD to DVD, the speed of copying depends on the
recording mode and the kind of DVD disc you’re using. The Fast copying is
available for unedited original video titles, and may not be possible when using
disc initialized on another recorder.
When you dub a title from the DVD to HDD, only a VR mode formatted disc can
use [Fast] mode.
When you dubs a title from the HDD to VR mode DVD-RW or DVD-RAM, the
[Fast] mode is not available for edited HDD title and Clip Recording title. And
dub an edited title from VR mode formatted DVD-RW or DVD-RAM to HDD also
cannot use [Fast] mode.

You can select not only a single title but also multiple titles using MARKER
button. Press MARKER at the desired titles to select multiple titles, and press
ENTER to display the menu on the left of the screen. Select [Dubbing] option
from the menu on the left of the screen and press ENTER to display the

confirm.
Dub a currently playing title
This feature copies a single title to the HDD in real time. When you start
