Welcome
Thank you
for choosing a Loewe product. We are happy to
welcome you as our customer.
At Loewe we combine the highest standards
of technology, design and user friendliness. This is
equally true of TV, DVD, video, audio and acces-
sories.
Neither technology nor design is an end
in itself, but both are intended to provide our
customers with the best possible audio and visual
experience.
Our design is not in
fl
uenced by short-term,
fashionable trends. You have, after all, purchased
a high-quality piece of equipment which you do
not want to get tired of looking at tomorrow or the
day after.

this operating manual
You can use the remote control to operate four
units: as well as this DVD recorder, a Loewe televi-
sion, a Loewe video recorder and a set-top box
(STB).
Set up
Place the DVD recorder on a
fi
rm, level base.
Do not place the DVD recorder in the vicinity of
sources of intense heat or in direct sunlight.
When installing in a cabinet or enclosed shelf:
Leave about 2.5cm free space around the DVD
player for unhindered air circulation to prevent
build-up of heat.

There can be interference to the images and
sound of any nearby television, video recorder or
radio. If this occurs, do not place the unit near
to a television, video recorder or radio, or switch
the unit off after removing the disc.
Install the DVD recorder where there is nothing
to obstruct the remote control‘s infrared signal
from reaching the DVD recorder display.
Do not place strong arti
fi
cial light sources in
front of the device. This may affect infrared
reception.
If there is an electrical storm, disconnect the
antenna and mains plug. Power surges caused
by lightning strikes can damage the unit through
the antenna system or the mains.
The antenna and mains should also be discon-
nected if the unit is to remain unsupervised for a
long period of time.
The mains plug must be easily accessible so that
the unit can be disconnected at any time.
Lay the cable in such a way that it cannot get
damaged. The power cable should not be kinked
or laid over sharp edges, not stood upon or
exposed to chemicals - the latter also applies to
the device as a whole. A mains cable with dam-
aged insulation can cause electric shocks and is
a
fi
re hazard.
When removing the power plug, pull the body
of the plug, and not the cable. Otherwise, the
wires in the plug could get damaged and cause
a short circuit the next time it is plugged in.
You should also read and follow the safety advice
on the following pages.

Disposal
Cardboard box and packaging
You have opted for a durable and techni-
cally sophisticated product. In line with national
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging
materials, we pay a fee to authorised recyclers
who collect packaging from dealers. However, we
recommend that you keep the original cardboard
box and the rest of the packaging materials so that
the unit can, if necessary, be transported in the
safest possible conditions.
The unit
Important
: The EU Directive
2002/96/EG governs the proper
re-acceptance, handling and
recycling of used electronic ap-
pliances.
Old electronic appliances must therefore be
disposed of separately. Never throw this set in the
normal domestic waste. You can hand in your old
set free of charge at identi
fi
ed collection points or
at your dealer if you buy a similar new set. Other
details about re-acceptance (also for non-EU coun-
tries) are available from your local administration..
Remote control batteries
The batteries provided contain no harmful materi-
als such as cadmium, lead or mercury.
Regulations concerning used batteries mean
that batteries may no longer be thrown out with
the household rubbish. You can dispose of used
batteries free of charge at the collection points in
commercial outlets. Your dealer will also have a
collection point for used batteries.
