Timer Operations
(see pages 36 to 37)
Setting the Timer:
• If you do not specify the preset station or track number
correctly while setting a timer, the currently selected
station or the first track will be played when timer is
activated.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the timer will be canceled. You need to set the
clock first, then the timer again.
• Without stopping the recording, you cannot change the
source while Recording Timer is recording.
• Daily Timer will not work correctly for some DVDs.
Setup Menu Operations
(see pages 38 to 39)
General:
• If the upper and lower parts of the menu are cut off, adjust
the picture size control of the TV.
LANGUAGE menu:
• When the language you have selected for MENU
LANGUAGE, AUDIO LANGUAGE, or SUBTITLE is
not recorded on a disc, the original language is used as the
initial language.
PICTURE menu—MONITOR TYPE:
• Even if “4:3 PS/4:3 MULTI PS” is selected, the screen size
may become 4:3 letter box with some disc. This depends on
how they are recorded.
• When you select “16:9 NORMAL/16:9 MULTI
NORMAL” or “16:9 AUTO/16:9 MULTI AUTO” for a
picture whose aspect ratio is 4:3, the picture slightly
changes due to the process for converting the picture width.
OTHERS menu—ON SCREEN GUIDE:
• The setup menu and on-screen bar will be displayed (and
recorded) even though this function is set to “OFF.”
Subtitles and the information for zoom-in always appear on
the display regardless of this setting.
Maintenance
To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs,
tapes and mechanism clean.
Handling discs
• Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge
while pressing the center hole lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.
• Put the disc back in its case after use to prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when
placing it back in its case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures,
and moisture.
To clean the disc:
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center
to edge.
Handling cassette tapes
• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take up the slack by
inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotate it.
– If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in
the cassette.
• Be careful not to touch the tape surface.
• Avoid the following places to store the tape—in dusty
places, in direct sunlight or heat, in moist areas, on a TV or
speaker, or near a magnet.
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality:
• Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to clean the
heads, capstans and pinch rollers.
• Use a head demagnetizer (available at electronics and
audio shops) to demagnetize the heads (when the System is
turned off).
Cleaning the System
• Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System
is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-
diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean
with a dry cloth.
• Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become
damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the
following:
– DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
– DO NOT wipe it forcefully.
– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as
insecticides to it.
– DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact
for a long time.
To protect your recording
Cassettes have two small tabs on the back
to protect from unexpected erasure or re-
recording.
To protect your recording,
remove these
tabs.
To re-record on a protected tape,
cover
the holes with adhesive tape.
