Most recorder manufacturers
recommend their recorders be placed
upon a dedicated circuit. That is, a single
outlet circuit which powers only that
recorder and has no additional outlets or
branch circuits.
Caution
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded
wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets,
overloaded extension cords, frayed power
cords, or damaged or cracked wire
insulation are dangerous. Any of these
conditions could result in electric shock or
fire. Periodically examine the cord of your
recorder, and if its appearance indicates
damage or deterioration, unplug it,
Warning
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
expose your recorder to rain or moisture.
discontinue use of the recorder, and have
the cord replaced with an exact replacement
part by an authorized servicer.
Protect the power cord from physical or
mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,
kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits
the recorder.
To disconnect power from the power outlet,
pull out the power cord plug. When installing
the product, make sure that the plug is
easily accessible.
CAUTION:TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE
COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE
PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO
QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the
product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock.
Important safeguards
•
Read instructions– Read all the safety and
operating instructions before operating your
recorder.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.
•
•
Retain instructions–Retain the safety and
operating instructions for future reference.
Follow warnings–Follow all warnings on
your recorder and in the operating
instructions.
•
•
Follow instructions–Follow all operating
and use instructions.
Cleaning–Unplug your recorder from the wall
outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid
cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp
cloth for cleaning.
Caution
This product employs a laser system. To ensure
correct use of this product, read this owner’s
manual carefully and retain it for future
reference. Should the recorder require
maintenance, contact qualified service
personnel.
Making adjustments to controls or performing
procedures other than those specified herein
may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Exception: A product that is meant for
uninterrupted service and, that for some
specific reason, such as the possibility of the
loss of an authorization code for a CATV
converter, is not intended to be unplugged by
the user for cleaning or any other purpose,
may exclude the reference to unplugging
your recorder in the cleaning description
otherwise required in this instruction.
To prevent direct exposure to laser beam, do not
try to open the enclosure. Visible laser radiation

Accessories–Do not place your recorder on
an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or
table. Your recorder may fall, causing serious
injury to someone and serious damage to
your recorder. Use only with a cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the
manufacturer, or sold with your recorder.

Ventilation–Slots and openings in the
cabinet and the back or bottom are provided
for ventilation, to ensure reliable operation of
your recorder and to protect it from
overheating. Do not block openings. Do not
place your recorder on a bed, sofa, rug, or
other similar surface. Your recorder should
never be placed near or over a radiator or
heat register. Do not place your recorder in a
built-in installation such as a bookcase or
rack unless correct ventilation is provided or
the manufacturer’s instructions have been
adhered to.

•
•
Lightning–For added protection for your
recorder during a lightning storm, or when it
is left unattended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet
and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
This will prevent damage to your recorder
due to lightning and power-line surges.
Power lines–An outside antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can fall into such
power lines or circuits. When installing an
outside antenna system, do not touch power
lines or circuits because contact with them
might be fatal.
Overloading–Do not overload wall outlets
and extension cords because this can result
in a risk of fire or electric shock.
Object and liquid entry–Never push objects
of any kind into your recorder through
openings because they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short out parts that could
result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on your recorder.
Servicing–Do not attempt to service your
recorder yourself because opening or
removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
•
•
Power sources–Use only the type of power
source indicated on the marking label. If you
are not sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your recorder dealer or
local power company. For recorders intended
to operate from battery power, or other
sources, refer to the operating instructions.
Grounding or polarization–Your recorder is
equipped with a polarized alternating-current
line plug (a plug having one blade wider than
the other). This plug will fit into the power
outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into the
outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact your electrician
to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat
the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
Power-cord protection–Route power-supply
cords so that they are not likely to be walked
on or pinched by items placed upon or
against them, paying particular attention to
cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and
the point where they exit from your recorder.
Outdoor antenna grounding–If an outside
antenna or cable system is connected to your
recorder, make sure that the antenna or
cable system is grounded so as to provide
some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges. Article 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70,
provides information with respect to correct
grounding of the mast and supporting
structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an
antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-discharge
unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.

•
Damage requiring service–Unplug your
recorder from the wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions:
•
•
•
When the power supply cord or plug is
damaged or frayed.
If liquid has been spilled, or objects have
fallen into your recorder.
If your recorder has been exposed to rain
or water.

controls may result in damage and often
requires extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore your recorder to its
normal operation.
To ensure correct use of your recorder, read this
owner’s manual carefully and retain for future
reference.
About the symbol
The
symbol may appear on your TV display
during operation and indicates that the function
is not permitted by the recorder or specific
media.
•
•
If your recorder has been dropped or
damaged in any way.
When your recorder exhibits a distinct
change in performance, this indicates a
need for service.
Symbols used in this manual
A section whose title has one of the following
symbols are applicable only to those discs
represented by the symbol.
•
Replacement Parts–When replacement
parts are required, make sure that the
service technician uses replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer that have the
same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock, injury to persons, or other
hazards.
Safety Check–Upon completion of any
service or repairs to your recorder, ask the
service technician to perform routine safety
checks to determine that your recorder is in
correct operating condition.

This reminder is provided to call the CATV
system installer's attention to Article 820-40
of the NEC that provides guidelines for
correct grounding and, in particular,
specifies that the cable ground should be
connected to the grounding system of the
building as close to the point of cable entry
as practical.
Note
Batteries should never be thrown away or
incinerated but disposed of in accordance
with your local regulations concerning
chemical wastes.
Note
To prevent electric shock, match the wide
blade of plug to the wide slot in the power
outlet and fully insert the plug.
