Note:
You must load a recordable disc for DVD recording.

Changing TV Audio Channel
You can select the audio channel (language) to listen
by pressing AUDIO during viewing TV program. The
current audio channel is displayed on-screen.

If the sound is poor quality when set to Stereo, you
can often improve it by changing to [Mono/Main].
This recorder can record either NICAM or regular
audio. If the NICAM setting (page 13) is set to [On],
then if the broadcast is NICAM, the audio
automatically changes to NICAM and you can
record the NICAM audio. If the broadcast is non-
