When the power switch is set to “HDD” or
“SD”, the cover of disc insertion block will
not open. When “Please insert DVD.” appears
during dubbing, however, the cover of disc
insertion block will open even when the

the inside of DVD video camera/recorder. When
using a single-sided disc, the recording surface is

video camera/recorder to any vibrations or
impact.
