occurring as scheduled.

the wrong program number. Check TV channels stored.

– If you adjust the clock after you set a timer recording, reset the

timer recording.

– If the DVD recorder cannot read the disc, you cannot record.
– You cannot use the DVD recorder to duplicate copyrighted

materials (DVDs or videotapes) onto a DVD+RW/+R, “COPY
PROTECT” will be displayed.

– A finalized DVD+R has been inserted. Change disc.

– If a recording is too short, it is possible that a DVD player cannot

detect it. Please observe the following 'minimum recording
times'. Recording mode : {M2}– 10 minutes, {M2x} – 13 minutes,
{M3} – 15 minutes, {M4} – 20 minutes, {M6} – 30 minutes,
{M8} - 30 minutes.

– Some DVD players cannot playback DVD+RW recordings. You

can solve this problem by using a special function :
1) Press OPEN CLOSE / on the DVD recorder to open the disc

tray.

2) Insert the disc but do not close the tray.
3) Hold down the number button {2} on the remote control until

the tray closes. The disc is modified.

4) If this fails to produce the desired result, repeat the procedure

using the number button {3} on the remote control.

fine, but the recording on a DVD+R(W) is faulty. This
interference is unavoidable with copy-protected DVDs or video
cassettes.

– The DVD+R(W) has recording lifetime, please change a new disc

for recording.
