3. Watch a Movie

 - 

Insert a DVD movie disk.    The DVD will automatically play bringing you to the 

title menu. 

NOTE:

    The DVD Recorder has its default channel list.    This function allows you to watch TV without 

going through the Auto CH Scan process.   From the 

Setup Menu

 go to 

General 

setup option.   Use 

the Factory Default function to set the unit to factory default mode. 

4. Record your favorite TV shows to DVD

 - 

Insert a DVD+RW or DVD+R disk, and press the 

REC 

button on your remote control or on the unit while watching the TV show you wish to record.* It’s 

that easy!      *Expect a few seconds delay when recording starts and a slight delay when recording ends.   
When a blank disc or recordable disc is inserted for the first time it will take about 30 seconds to read it.   

5. Copy video to DVD –

 

Connect the Video/Audio OUT jacks on your VCR or camcorder to the 

color coordinated INPUT jacks on the DVD Recorder.  Insert a DVD+RW or DVD+R disk. Press the 

SOURCE 

button on the remote to select a recording source, press the 

REC 

button when ready to 

record. 

 

DO NOT RECORD ANY DVDs until you read this! 

All DVD disks are not equal! In fact, certain DVD disk manufactures have perfected video recording 

media. For best results, we recommend using the following brands of DVD disks when recording: 

 

 

DVD+RW: Use Hewlett Packard®, TDK®, Memorex® or Maxell® 

 

DVD+R: Use Hewlett Packard®
