• This recorder can record on various discs types. 

Select the disc type according to your needs 
(page 28).

• Check that the disc has enough available space 

for the recording (page 43). For DVD+RWs or 
DVD-RWs, you can free up disc space by 
erasing titles (page 56).

To play a disc recorded with this recorder on other 
equipment, finalize the disc (page 86).

• Timer recordings will start with or without the recorder 

turned on. The recorder automatically turns off after a 
recording has finished.

• This recorder records at ×1 speed.
• This recorder shares a single tuner for both the DVD 

recorder and the VCR. You cannot record different 
programs to a DVD and a VHS tape at the same time.

Like the SP or EP recording mode of VCRs, this 
recorder has eight different recording modes.
Select a recording mode according to the time and 
picture quality you need. For example, if picture 
quality is your top priority, select the High Quality 
mode (HQ). If recording time is your priority, 
Super Extended Play mode (SEP) can be a 
possible choice. Note that the recording time in the 
following table is an approximate guide. 

Situations below may cause slight inaccuracies with the 
recording time.
– Recording a program with poor reception, or a program 

or video source of low picture quality

– Recording on a disc that has already been edited
– Recording only a still picture or just sound

The recorder can receive and record stereo/SAP 
programs.

When a stereo program is received, the 
“STEREO” indicator lights up in the front panel 
display. If there is noise in the stereo program, 
press AUDIO repeatedly until the “MONO” 
indicator disappears from the TV screen. The 
sound will be recorded in monaural but with less 
noise.

When a SAP is received, the “SAP” indicator 
lights up in the front panel display. To record only 
SAP sound, set “Tuner Audio” of “Audio” to 
“SAP” in the “Setup” display (page 97).

I want to record with the 
best possible picture 
quality, so I’ll select HQ.
