Programming a recording (TIMER)

General information

Use programmed recording (TIMER) to automatically start and stop a recording at a later date.
The DVD recorder will switch to the right program number and begin recording at the correct

With this DVD recorder, you can pre-program up to six recordings within a period of one year.

To make a programmed recording, your DVD recorder needs to know:
* the date you want to make the recording
* the TV channel numbel
* the start and stop times of the recording
* the recording mode ('HQ/SP+/EP/EP+')

This information is saved in a 'TIMER block.'

Before you begin, makee sure the clock is set. If the clock is not set, the Set Clock menu will
appear when you press the TIMER button.
