Notes:

 Depending on the conditions of the recording equipment or the CD-R/RW (or DVD±R/RW) disc itself, some

CD-R/RW (or DVD±R/RW) discs cannot be played on the unit.

 Do not attach any seal or label to either side (the labeled side or the recorded side) of a disc.

 Do not use irregularly shaped CDs (e.g., heart-shaped or octagonal). Doing so may result in malfunctions.

 Depending on the recording software & the finalization, some recorded discs (CD-R/RW or DVD±R/RW) may

not be playable.

 DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW and CD-R/RW discs recorded using a personal computer or a DVD or CD Recorder

may not play if the disc is damaged or dirty, or if there is dirt or condensation on the Recorder’s lens.

 If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a compatible format, there are cases

in which it may not play because of the settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check

with the software publisher for more detailed information.)

 This recorder requires discs and recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal

playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different types

of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 or WMA files) and these require certain pre-

existing conditions (see above) to ensure compatible playback.

 Customers should note that permission is required in order to download MP3 / WMA files and music from the

Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the

copyright owner.

aa

Antenna

:

Disconnect the antenna from the rear of the TV and

identify the antenna cable. If it is a round 75 ohm

coaxial cable connect it directly to the jack marked

ANTENNA IN on your Recorder. If your antenna cable

is flat connect it to a 300-ohm to 75-ohm antenna

adaptor (not supplied) and slip the adaptor over the

ANTENNA IN jack. Don’t attempt to screw it into to the

Recorder.

bb

Cable TV:

If your cable connection has no converter or

descrambler, unscrew the cable from your TV and

attach it to the ANTENNA IN jack on the Recorder.

If a converter is required connect a coaxial cable from

the wall jack to the IN connector on the converter, and

a coaxial cable from the OUT connector on the

converter to the ANTENNA IN on your Recorder. This

cable hookup permits both TV and Recorder

operation.

To view or record a CATV channel

1. Tune the TV to the Recorder output channel (CH 3

or 4).

2. Set the Recorder channel selector to the cable

output channel. (Example: CH3)

3. Select a channel using the cable converter.

Notes:

• With this connection, you cannot record one channel

while viewing another.

• If you are using a cable box to tune channels, it is not

necessary to do Auto Channel Set.
