Instant Timer Recording (ITR)
Your DVD/VCR Combi receiver allows you to make
recordings using a variety of simple methods:
Instant Timer Recording (ITR) start recording immedi-
ately for a set period of time or until the video cassette
runs out.
Your DVD/VCR Combi receiver incorporates Long Play
(LP) which enables you to record up to twice the
amount of time on a video cassette. For example an E-
180 will record up to 180 minutes using Standard Play
(SP); using LP you will be able to record up to 360 min-
utes. Please note there will be a slight loss in picture
and sound quality when using LP.
1. Make sure that you have correctly connected your
DVD/VCR Combi receiver as described earlier in
this book.
Press POWER to turn on your VCR.
2. Insert a video cassette with protection tab into
your DVD/VCR Combi receiver.
The video cassette should have the window side
facing up and the arrow facing away from you.
3. Press PR v or V to select the programme
number you wish to record.
You may also directly select programme number
using the numbered buttons on the remote
control.
4. If you wish to record directly from the SCART
sockets repeatedly press AV until the socket you
wish to record from is displayed.
AV 1 for recording from EURO AV1 SCART socket
on the rear of your DVD/VCR Combi receiver.
AV 2 for recording from EURO AV2 SCART socket
on the rear of your DVD/VCR Combi receiver.
AV 3 for recording from VIDEO IN and AUDIO IN
(Left & Right) sockets on the front of your
DVD/VCR Combi receiver.
5. Press SPEED if you wish to record in Long Play or
Standard Play.
SP will produce improved picture and sound
quality, however LP will provide twice as much
recording time as SP.
6. Press REC/ITR to start recording.
RECORD will appear on the TV screen.
Press REC/ITR several times. Each successive
press will increase the record time by 30 minutes
until you reach a maximum of 9 hours.
7. Press PAUSE/STEP to avoid recording unwanted
scenes.
Press PAUSE/STEP to continue recording.
If you press PAUSE/STEP during ITR, this
DVD/VCR Combi receiver will enter the record
pause mode and ITR is cancelled.
Tapes can be paused for up to 5 minutes; RECP
will be displayed when a tape is paused. After 5
minutes your DVD/VCR Combi receiver will stop
recording to prevent damaging the tape or your
DVD/VCR Combi receiver.
8. Press STOP to end recording.
Press EJECT.
EJECT will appear on the TV screen for a few
seconds.
Notes:
If you do not wish to record on a tape (this can
happen quite easily by accident!) remove the
protection tab on the back edge of the video
cassette.
It is possible to record on a video cassette with the
record protection tab removed by covering the hole
with self adhesive tape.
Remember you can record one programme while
watching another by starting your instant recording,
press TV/VCR to appear TV indicator in the display
window and then selecting a different channel on
your TV.
