Before you start
RW discs is optional for manufacturers of DVD
playback equipment, and there is DVD playback
equipment that does not play DVD-R or DVD-RW discs
recorded in the DVD-Video format.
Note: 'Finalization' is required.
This system supports the recording of 'copy-once'
broadcast programs using the CPRM copy protection
system (see CPRM on page 45) on CPRM-compliant
DVD-RW discs in VR mode. CPRM recordings can only
be played on players that are specifically compatible
with CPRM.
• Do I need two DVD recorders for editing? What kind of
editing can I do?
Unlike editing video tape, you only need one DVD
recorder to edit discs. With DVD, you edit by making
a 'Play List' of what to play and when to play it. On
playback, the disc is played according to the Play List.

Play List
Throughout this manual, you will often see the words
Original and Play List to refer to the actual content
and the edited version.
• Original content refers to what's actually recorded
on the disc.
• Play List content refers to the edited version of the
disc—how the Original content is to be played.

About the internal hard disk drive
The internal hard disk drive (HDD) is a fragile piece of
equipment. Please use the system following the
guidelines below to protect against possible HDD failure.

We recommend that you back up your important
recordings onto DVD-R/RW discs in order to protect against
accidental loss.
• Do not move the main system unit while it is on.
• Install and use the system on a stable, level surface.
• Do not block the rear vent/cooling fan.
• Do not use the system in excessively hot or humid
places, or in places that may be subject to sudden
changes in temperature. Sudden changes in
temperature can cause condensation to form inside
the system. This can be a cause of HDD failure.
• While the system is switched on, do not unplug from
the wall socket or switch the electricity off from the
breaker switch.
• Do not move the main system unit immediately after
switching it off. If you need to move the system,
please follow the steps below:
1 After the message POWER OFF is shown in the
display, wait at least two minutes.
2 Unplug from the wall socket.
3 Move the system.
• If there's a power failure while the system is on there
is a chance that some data on the HDD will be lost.
• The HDD is very delicate. If used improperly or in an
unsuitable environment, it is possible that the HDD
will fail after a few years of use. Signs of problems
include playback unexpectedly freezing and
noticeable block noise (mozaic) in the picture.
However, sometimes there will be no warning signs
of HDD failure.
If the HDD fails, no playback of recorded material will
be possible. In this case it will be necessary to
replace the HDD unit (this is not covered outside the
warranty period).
Please note that if replacement of the HDD is
necessary due to HDD failure, all recorded material
on the disk will be lost.
