Recommendations for Optimal Picture Quality
The unit is a precision device which is manufactured with highly accurate technology.
Fingerprints or friction on the disc will affect reading from the laser pickup lens, and it
will ruin the image quality. In the worst case scenario, neither video nor audio will be
played from a dirty or scratched disc. To obtain optimum picture quality, the recorder
should be cleaned after every 1,000 hours of use. Please note that this period may vary
depending on the environment (temperature, humidity, dust, etc.). Please contact your
supplier for details.
Copy Protection
This DVD video recorder supports Macrovision copy protection.
This will prevent copy-protected materials from being recorded normally.
