Setup precautions

Finding a suitable location
– Place the set on a fl at, hard and stable
surface. Do not place the set on a carpet.

other equipment that might heat it up
(e.g., receiver or amplifi er.)

the set (e.g., CDs, magazines.)
– Install this unit near the AC outlet and
where the AC power plug can be reached
easily.
Space for ventilation
– Place the apparatus in a location with
adequate ventilation to prevent internal
heat build up. Allow at least 10 cm (4.5")
clearance from the rear and the top of
the set and 5cm (2.3") from the left and

Cleaning discs

Some problems occur because the disc
inside the recorder is dirty (frozen
picture, sound disruptions, picture
distortions.) To avoid these problems,
discs should be cleaned on a regular
basis.
To clean a disc, use a micro fi bre
cleaning cloth and wipe the disc from the
center to the edge in a straight line.
CAUTION!
Do not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,
or anti-static sprays intended for analog
discs. Since the optical unit (laser) of the
DVD recorder operates at a higher
power than regular DVD or CD players,
cleaning CDs intended for DVD or CD
players may damage the optical unit
(laser.) Therefore, refrain from using a
cleaning CD.
