electric shock. If the
AC plug does not fit into a nonpolarized
AC outlet, do not file or cut
the wide blade. It is the user

NOTES ON HANDLING:
• When shipping the DVD recorder, always use the
original shipping carton and packing materials. For
maximum protection, repack the unit as it was
originally packed at the factory.
• Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near
the DVD recorder. Do not leave rubber or plastic
products in contact with the DVD recorder for a long
time. They will leave marks on the finish.
• The top and rear panels of the DVD recorder may
become warm after a long period of use. This is
normal and not a malfunction.
• When the DVD recorder is not in use, be sure to
remove the disc and turn off the power.
• If you do not use the DVD recorder for a long period,
the unit may not function properly in the future. Turn
on and use the DVD recorder occasionally.
NOTES ON LOCATING THE DVD recorder:
• When you place this DVD recorder near a TV, radio or
VCR, the playback picture may become poor and the
sound may be distorted. In this case, move the DVD
recorder away from the TV, radio or VCR.
NOTES ON CLEANING:
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
• For stubborn dirt, soak the cloth in a weak detergent
solution, wring well and wipe. Use a dry cloth to wipe
it dry. Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner
and benzene, as they may damage the surface of the
DVD recorder.
• If you use a chemical-saturated cloth to clean the unit,
follow that product’s instructions.
W
arning:
Cleaning and adjustment of lenses and/or
other components of playback mechanism should be
performed by a qualified service technician.
NOTES ON MOISTURE CONDENSATION:
Moisture condensation damages the DVD recorder.
Please read the following carefully.
• Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you
pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of
water form on the outside of the glass. In the same
way, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up
lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal
parts of the DVD recorder.
Moisture condensation occurs during the following
cases:
• When you bring the DVD recorder directly from a cold
place to a warm place.
• When you use the DVD recorder in a room where you
just turned on the heater, or a place where the cold
wind from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.
• In summer, when you use the DVD recorder in a hot
and humid place just after you moved the unit from an
air conditioned room.
• When you use the DVD recorder in a humid place.
Do not use the DVD recorder when moisture
condensation may occur.
• If you use the DVD recorder in such a situation, it may
damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc,
connect the power cord of the DVD recorder to the
wall outlet, turn on the DVD recorder and leave it
“ON” for two or three hours. After two or three hours,
the DVD recorder will have warmed up and
evaporated any moisture. Keep the DVD recorder
connected to the wall outlet and moisture
TO OBTAIN A CLEAR PICTURE:
The DVD recorder is a high technology, precision device.
If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or
worn down, the picture quality becomes poor. To obtain a
clear picture, we recommend regular inspection and
maintenance (cleaning or parts replacement) every 1,000
hours of use depending on the operating environment.
