32 Timer Recording
Follow the steps below to program the TV/VCR to record
TV programs while you’re away from home. The TV/VCR
will turn itself on, record, and turn itself off automatically.
Before you begin, make sure:
● The clock is set. If not, CLOCK MUST BE SET appears,
followed by the SET CLOCK menu. Details are on pages
12-17.
● Channels are set. Details are on page 10.
● A tape is in the TV/VCR. Make sure the tape’s record tab
is intact and the tape is long enough to record the pro-
gram.
Complete each step within 60 seconds of completing
the previous step. If you don’t, you may start again
at step 1.
• With ShowGuard, you don’t have
to worry about losing your timer
recordings. If the power fails,
timer recordings will be restored
when the clock is reset. (The
clock will reset itself automatical-
ly if you are using AUTO CLOCK.
Details are on pages 14-17. If
you are not using AUTO CLOCK,
reset the clock manually. Details
are on pages 12-13.) The timer
recording will not occur only if it
was scheduled to take place dur-
ing the power failure.
• You cannot set a timer recording
if DEFEAT RECORDING is ON.
Details are on page 36.
