Dolby Digital Recording
“Dolby® Digital Recording enables consumers to record
high-quality video with stereo sound on recordable DVD
discs. The technology, when utilized instead of PCM
recording, also saves recordable disc space, allowing for
higher video resolution or extended recording time on
each DVD. DVDs created using Dolby Digital Recording
will play back on all DVD-video players.”
Note: This is true when the players are compatible with
actual recordable DVD discs.

Cleaning the Cabinet
• Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of the
unit with a soft cloth.
• Never use a solvent, thinner, benzene or alcohol to
clean the unit. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the
unit. Such chemicals may discolor the surface or
damage the unit.
Cleaning Discs
• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning
cloth. Wipe the disc from the center to out. Do not
wipe in a circular motion.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners, detergent, abrasive
cleaning agents or antistatic spray intended for analog
records.
Cleaning the Disc Lens
• If this unit still does not perform properly although you
refer to the relevant sections and to
“TROUBLESHOOTING” in this owner’s manual, the laser
optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult your dealer or
an Authorized Service Center for inspection and
cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.
Disc Handling
• Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not
adhere to the surfaces of the discs.
• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is
not used.
Auto Head Cleaning
• Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or
remove a cassette, so you can see a clear picture.
• Playback picture may become blurred or interrupted
while the TV program reception is clear. Dirt accumulated
on the video heads after a long period of use, or the
usage of rental or worn tapes can cause this problem. If
a streaky or snowy picture appears during playback, the
video heads in your unit may need to be cleaned.
1. Please visit your local Audio/Video store and purchase a
good quality VHS video head cleaner.
2. If a video head cleaner does not solve the problem,
please consult your dealer or an Authorized Service
Center.
Note
• Remember to read the instructions along with the
video head cleaner before use.
• Clean video heads only when problems occur.
