region 2 to work in this device. If the DVD is marked
with a different region, it cannot be played in this DVD
recorder.
The number within the globe represents the region.
Regional code 2 includes:
Europe, Japan, South Africa, Middle East (incl. Egypt).
Cleaning the discs
Some malfunctions (frozen or distorted picture and broken sound for
example) may be due to dirt on the disc. To avoid such problems, you
should clean your discs regularly.
1 Dirty discs should be cleaned with a soft cloth. Always wipe from
the middle to the edge.
2 Do not use any solvents such as benzine, thinners, commercially
available cleaning agents, or antistatic sprays designed for vinyl
records.
Can I use a CD lens cleaner in the DVD recorder?
Since the optical unit (laser) of the DVD recorder operates at a higher
power level than the ones in normal DVD and CD players,such CD lens
cleaner discs may actually damage the optical unit (laser).
Therefore, refrain from using a CD lens cleaner disc!
