tape’s record tab is intact and the tape is long enough to record
the program(s).

during an OTR, the VCR will
stop recording, eject the tape,
and switch to DVD mode or
turn off.
• If one or more Timer
recordings are on standby when
one OTR ends, the DVD/VCR
will turn off automatically and
“

DVD/VCR’s display panel
indicating that it is now ready
for another timer recording.

When an OTR ends
The DVD/VCR will turn off and “
” on the DVD/VCR’s display
panel will flash indicating that the recording is complete, then goes
into the timer standby mode again. (It may switch to DVD mode
automatically.) At this point, you cannot use the VCR unless you
release the DVD/VCR from the timer standby mode.

● If the DVD component is active and no more timer recordings
are on standby, you can cancel the timer standby mode by
pressing TIMER SET or VCR on the remote control or by
pressing SOURCE or STOP/EJECT C A on the front panel.
● If the DVD component is not active, or the “ ” is not flashing
but lit indicating there are more timer recordings on standby,
you can cancel the timer standby mode only by pressing
TIMER SET on the remote control or by pressing
STOP/EJECT C A on the front panel.
● After releasing the DVD/VCR from timer standby mode, you
can use it as usual.
