Hints on installation

We want you to enjoy using this unit for years to come, so
please bear in mind the following points when choosing
a suitable location for it:

Do...

Use in a well-ventilated room.

Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a table,

shelf or stereo rack.

Don’t...

Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or

humidity, including near radiators and other heat-
generating appliances.

Place on a window sill or other place where the

recorder will be exposed to direct sunlight.

Use in a dusty or damp environment or in a room

where it will be exposed to excessive cigarette smoke.

Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other

component in your stereo system that becomes hot in
use.

Use near a television or monitor as you may

experience interference—especially if the television uses
an indoor antenna.

Use in a kitchen or other room where the recorder

may be exposed to smoke or steam.

Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with cloth—this

may prevent proper cooling of the unit.

Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not large

enough to support all four of the unit’s feet.

Moving the recorder

If you need to move the recorder, first remove the disc, if
there’s one loaded, and close the disc tray. Next, press

STANDBY/ON

to switch the power to standby, checking

that the

POWER OFF

indication in the display goes off.

Wait at least two minutes. Lastly, disconnect the power
cord. Never lift or move the unit during playback or
recording—discs rotate at a high speed and may be
damaged.

Glossary

Analog audio

An electrical signal that directly represents sound.
Compare this to digital audio which can be an electrical
signal, but is an indirect representation of sound. See

Digital audio

.

Aspect ratio

The width of a TV screen relative to its height.
Conventional TVs are 4:3 (in other words, the screen is
almost square); widescreen models are 16:9 (the screen
is almost twice as wide as it is high).

Chapter

Just as a book is split up into several chapters, a title on
the HDD/a DVD disc is usually divided into chapters. See

Title

.

Digital audio

An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During
recording, the sound is measured at discrete intervals
(44,100 times a second for CD audio) by an analog-to-
digital converter, generating a stream of numbers. On
playback, a digital-to-analog converter generates an
analog signal based on these numbers. See also

Digital Stereo Creator enables consumers to

create stereo DVD-Videos with stunning Dolby Digital
sound tracks at home. 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 mastered using
Dolby Digital Stereo Creator will play back on all DVD-
Video players.
