Maintenance

SERVICING

• Please refer to relevant topics on Troubleshooting on pages 77-80 before returning the product.• If this unit becomes inoperative, do not try to correct the problem by yourself. There are no user-

serviceable parts inside. Turn off, unplug the power plug and please call our help line mentionedon the front page to locate an Authorized Service Center.

CLEANING THE CABINET

• Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use a solution containingalcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasive.

CLEANING DISCS

• When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center to out. Donot wipe in a circular motion.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, detergent,abrasive cleaning agents or antistatic spray intended for analogue records.

CLEANING THE DISC LENS• If this unit still does not perform properly although you refer to the relevant sections and to

“Troubleshooting” in this Owner’s Manual, the laser optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult yourdealer or an Authorized Service Center for inspection and cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.

DISC HANDLING

• Handle the discs so that fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the surfaces of the discs.• Always store the disc in its protective case when it is not used.

AUTO HEAD CLEANING

• Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or remove a cassette, so you can see a clear picture.• Playback picture may become blurred or interrupted while the TV program reception is clear. Dirt

accumulated on the video heads after a long period of use, or the usage of rental or worn tapescan cause this problem. If a streaky or snowy picture appears during playback, the video heads in

the unit may need to be cleaned.1. Please visit your local Audio/Video store and purchase a good quality VHS Video Head Cleaner.2. If a Video Head Cleaner does not solve the problem, please call our help line mentioned on the

front page to locate an Authorized Service Center.

NOTES:• Remember to read the instructions along with the video head cleaner before use.• Clean video heads only when problems occur.

IR SIGNAL CHECK

If the remote control does not work properly, you can test if the remote control sends out the infraredsignal with AM radio or a digital camera (including built-in camera of cellular phone). It will help todefine the cause of malfunction.

• With an AM radio: Tune an AM radio to a band with no broadcasting. Press a button on remote control toward the

radio. Sound will be fluttering when you press any key and the radio receives the signal. Thismeans the remote control unit is working.

• With a digital camera (including built-in camera of cellular phone): Direct a digital camera to remote control, press and hold a button on remote control. If infrared

light appears through digital camera, the remote is working.

Dolby Digital Recording“Dolby ® Digital Recording enables consumers to record high-quality video with stereo sound onrecordable DVD discs. The technology, when utilized instead of PCM recording, also saves record-able disc space, allowing for higher video resolution or extended recording time on each DVD.DVDs created using Dolby Digital Recording will play back on all DVD-Video players.”

Note: This is true when the players are compatible with actual recordable DVD discs.

or dirty or if there is dirt of condensation on the

player’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.)

• DVD-RW/R discs recorded in Video mode cannot be

recorded additionally using the unit.

• Since the recording is made by the variable bit rate

(VBR) method, depending on the picture you are

recording, the actual remaining time for recording

may be a little shorter than the remaining time

displayed on the OSD.

• You cannot record copy-protected video using

this unit. (Copy-protected video includes DVD-

audio which can be an electrical sig-nal, but is an indirect representationof sound. See also Digital audio.

Aspect ratio

The width of a TV screen relative toits height. Conventional TVs are 4:3(in other words, the screen is almostsquare); widescreen models are 16:9(the screen is almost twice as wide asit is high).

Chapter

Just as a book is split up into severalchapters, a title on a DVD disc is usu-ally divided into chapters. See alsoTitle.

Component video output

This is a video signal format thatconveys each of three principalcolors of light (red, blue and green)through different signal lines. Thisallows the viewers to experience pic-ture colors as original as it is. Thereare several signal formats, includingY/PB/PR and Y/CB/CR.

Digital audio

An indirect representation of soundby numbers. During recording, thesound is measured at discrete inter-vals (44, 100 times a second forCD audio) by an analog-to-digitalconverter, generating a stream ofnumbers. On playback, a digital-to-

analog converter generates an ana-log signal based on these numbers.See also Sampling frequency andAnalog audio.

Dolby Digital

The system developed by DolbyLaboratories to compress digi-

tal sound. It offers you sound ofstereo(2ch) or multi-channel audio(up to 5.1ch).

Finalize

To make recorded contents on DVDdiscs possible to be played backon DVD players. With this unit, it ispossible to finalize DVD+R/DVD-RW/ DVD-R discs.

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)

MP3 is a method of compressingfiles. You can copy MP3 files on CD-RW/R discs from the computer andplay back the files on this unit.

PBC (Playback Control)

(Video CD only)This function enables you to playback interactive software using amenu screen. See also Video CD.

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)

PCM is a format that converts audiointo digital data. It is mainly used forAudio CDs and DAT. This unit can playback sounds as realistic as possibleby converting even compressed DolbyDigital and MPEG audio to PCM.

Progressive Scan (525p/480p)

A type of display that does notsplit each frame into fields, andinstead scans directly through all thescanlines of each frame in order.

Progressive Scan provides less flick-ering and higher image resolutionthan traditional (525i/480i) TV sig-nals. Refer to page 71 for instructionson selective Progressive Scan mode.

Regions code

Regions associate discs and playerswith particular areas of the world.

This unit will only play back discsthat have compatible region codes.You can find the region code of yourunit by looking at the rear panel.Some discs are compatible withmore than one region (or all regions).

Sampling frequency

The rate which sound is measuredby a specified interval to turn it intodigital audio data. The numbers ofsampling in one second defines assampling frequency. The higher therate, the better the sound quality is.

SAP (Secondary Audio Program)

Sub audio channel which is deliveredseparately from main-audio channel.

This audio channel is used as analternate in bilingual broadcasting.

S-Video output

It delivers independently each signalof color(C) and luminance(Y) to TVas video signals, so that higher-qual-ity picture will be materialized.

Title (DVD only)

A collection of chapters on DVD disc.See also chapter.

Track

Audio CDs use tracks to divide thecontent of a disc. The DVD equiva-lent is called a chapter. See alsoChapter.
