Recording Features
Specifying recording length
— Instant Timer Recording (ITR)
During recording, press REC ( 7 ) on the VCR repeatedly until the
recording length you want appears on the display panel. The
record indicator (
⅜
) on the display panel starts blinking.
● Each time you press the button, recording length increases in
30-minute intervals (up to 6 hours).
● The VCR shuts off after recording is finished.
● To cancel an ITR, press STOP (
8 ) on the Remote or STOP/EJECT
( 0 ) on the VCR.
Watching one program while recording another
During recording…
● If you connect the TV and the VCR only using the RF
connection to view pictures from the VCR, press TV/VCR on the
Remote so that VCR mode indicator goes off from the display
panel. (The TV broadcast being recorded disappears.)
● If you are using the AV connection to view pictures from the
VCR, change the TV’s input mode from AV to TV.
Then, select the channel you want to watch, on the TV.
Recording Resume Function
If there is a power outage during recording (or Instant Timer
Recording, or timer recording), the recording will resume
automatically when the power is restored to the VCR. (No setting
is required for this function.)
Timer Recording
Up to 8 timer recording programs can be made using Express
timer programing method as far as a year in advance. Remember,
the clock must be set before you can program the timer.
NOTES:
● If all the 8 programs have already been set, “PROGRAM FULL”
appears on the TV screen.
● After timer recording is completed, the VCR turns off
automatically.
● You can program the timer recording while a regular recording
is in progress; the menu screens will not be recorded.
● To timer-record cable channels, be sure to keep the cable box
turned on with the correct channel selected.
● In case of a power failure after programming, the VCR’s memory
backup keeps your selections (if the lithium battery is not
exhausted).
Express Timer Programing
Load a cassette with the record safety tab intact. The VCR turns
on, and the counter is reset, automatically.
