tect position, you cannot record to the disc, delete programs with
the direct navigator, edit with the play list screen, or format the

³This unit is compatible with both non-cartridge and cartridge

³DVD-RAM recorded on this unit cannot be played on
incompatible players (including players manufactured by

³Using a Panasonic DVD-RAM, you can record broadcasts that
allow you to make one copy, such as some CATV broadcasts.
