Timer Operations 
 
(see pages 32 to 33)
 
Setting the Timer:
 
• If you do not specify the preset station or track number 
correctly while setting a timer, the currently selected 
station or the first track will be played when timer is 
activated.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure 
occurs, the timer will be canceled. You need to set the 
clock first, then the timer again.
• Without stopping the recording, you cannot change the 
source after Recording Timer starts recording.
• If you set DVD Video as the source, Daily Timer will not 
work correctly.
 
Timer Priority:
 
• If you set the Sleep Timer after Daily Timer starts playing 
the selected source, Daily Timer is canceled.
• If you set the Sleep Timer after Recording Timer starts 
recording, Recording Timer is canceled, but recording 
continues until Sleep Timer shuts off the power.
 
Set up Menu Operations 
 
(see pages 34 to 39)
 
LANGUAGE Set up Menu:
 
• When the language you have selected for MENU 
LANGUAGE, AUDIO LANGUAGE, or SUBTITLE is 
not recorded on a disc, the original language is used as the 
initial language.
 
PICTURE Set up Menu—MONITOR TYPE:
 
• Even if “4:3 PS” is selected, the screen size may become 
4:3 letter box with some DVD Videos. This depends on 
how the discs are recorded.
• When you select “16:9” for a picture whose aspect ratio is 
4:3, the picture slightly changes due to the process for 
converting the picture width.
 
AUDIO Set up Menu—DOWN MIX:
 
• This setting is not effective when DTS multi-channel 
software is played back.
 
OTHERS Set up Menu—ON SCREEN GUIDE:
 
• The set up menu and on-screen bar will be displayed (and 
recorded) even though this function is set to “OFF.”
Subtitles and the information for zooming in always appear 
on the display regardless of this setting.
 
Maintenance
 
To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs, 
tapes, and mechanism clean.
 
Handling discs
 
• Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge 
while pressing the center hole lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.
• Put the disc back in its case after use to prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when 
placing it back in its case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, 
and moisture.
 
To clean the disc:
 
• Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center 
to edge.
 
Handling cassette tapes
 
• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take up the slack by 
inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotate it.
– If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in 
the cassette.
• Be careful not to touch the tape surface.
• Avoid the following places to store the tape—in dusty 
places, in direct sunlight or heat, in moist areas, on a TV or 
speaker, or near a magnet.
 
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality:
 
• Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to clean the 
heads, capstans, and pinch rollers.
• Use a head demagnetizer (available at electronics and 
audio shops) to demagnetize the heads (when the System 
turned off).
 
Cleaning the System
 
• Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System 
is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-
diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean 
with a dry cloth.
• Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become 
damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the 
following:
– DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
– DO NOT wipe it strong.
– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as 
insecticides to it.
– DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact 
for a long time.
