HANDLING DISCS ●Using discs DVD-RAM and DVD-R discs are very delicate recording media. Carefully read the following cautions and observe them: • Always use a brand new disc when recording important material. • Be sure not to touch the recording surface of disc, or dirty or scratch it. • If there is dust, scratch, dirt on disc or if it is warped, the following phenomena may occur: − Block noise in playback image − Momentary stop of playback image − Sound interrupted during playback, or abnormal sound Block noise − Blue thumbnail display* (Fig. 1) A l l Pr og r ams 001/ 006 − Disc cannot correctly be recognized − Disc cannot be initialized PLAY RAM − Delay between video and audio * Fig. 1 Even if disc is normal, the above phenomena may occasionally occur. While the ACCESS/ PC indicator is lit, do not subject disc to vibrations or impact, and avoid using DVD video camera/recorder at extremely high or low temperatures, or in environment where condensation is likely to occur. • When recording images, the DVD video camera/ A l l Pr ogr ams 001 / 002 recorder may avoid the portions of disc where recording is not possible, PLAY RAM due to dust, scratches, etc. [It will pause m at such a portion and automatically restart (Recording one scene may produce multiple thumbnails.) recording (n).] This will cause recording to be interrupted for several seconds to several minutes, and multiple thumbnails will be created by one recording session as shown above. In this case, the recordable time on disc will decrease. • Be careful when removing the disc since the metal of removal slot of DVD video camera/ recorder, and disc itself, may be hot. ●Storing discs • When storing disc, replace it in the plastic case in which it was purchased. • Be careful that no condensation occurs on disc. • Do not place disc in following places: − Direct sunlight for a long time − Where humidity is high or in dusty place − While there is heat from a heater, etc. DISC CLEANING Use the disc cleaning cloth provided to lightly wipe off any dirt adhering to the disc as shown in the figure. Do not wipe the disc with force: Doing so could cause scratches. Never use solvent (thinner, water, antistat or detergent) for cleaning. Lightly wash the dirty cleaning cloth with detergent: The dirt removal capacity of the cloth will improve (rinse the cloth well with water so that no detergent remains). Use the disc cleaning cloth to clean from inner to outer edges in axial direction. English 26
