This function enables you to set a recording length
simply by hitting
[REC/OTR] on the unit.
Make sure ...
• The unit must be turned on.
• Insert a cassette tape with its erase-prevention tab
in place. (If necessary, rewind or fast forward the
tape to the point at which you want to begin
recording.)
NOTES:
• You cannot start OTR with the remote control.
• Recording starts immediately when [REC/OTR]
is hit.
• When [REC/OTR] is hit 18 times, the unit returns
to the Normal Recording mode.
• To stop the OTR operation, hit [STOP/EJECT P P N N ]
on the unit or on the remote control.
• To show the remaining time, hit [DISPLAY] on
the remote control so that “OTR” appears on the

appear.)
• Recording stops when the display shows 0:00.
• Please note that in the SLP mode maximum
recording time, assuming the tape is started at the
beginning, is 8 hours using T-160 (or 6 hours
using T-120).
• If the tape runs out before the end time, the unit
will switch to the stop mode immediately, ejects
the tape and turns itself off.

continues recording.
