VCR Plus+ programming with the power off
You can enter a PlusCode number when the recorder is
in standby. Note that the recording is always made to the
HDD. If you want to record to a DVD disc, you’ll need to
switch on the power and use the full VCR Plus+ program
screen.
Important
• You can’t use this feature until you have set up the
guide channels. See VCR Plus+ CH Setting on
page 96.
• You can’t change the recording mode.
• You can’t program daily or weekly timer recordings.
1 Press ‘VCR Plus+’.
The front panel display shows the current recording
mode and prompts you to enter the PlusCode number.
2 Use the number buttons to enter the PlusCode
number.
• To clear the last digit entered, press CLEAR.
3 Press ENTER.
The display shows the timer settings:

channel.
• If CODE ERROR appears in the display, check that
the PlusCode number is correct and that the guide
channel is set (see VCR Plus+ CH Setting on
page 96), then set the timer recording again.
• If CAN’T SET appears in the display, it means that
although you entered a valid PlusCode number, the
program has already finished.

programmed end time in two different ways. This can be
useful if a broadcast program overruns, for example.

three seconds.
The timer indicator disappears from the front panel
display.
2 Press ì REC repeatedly to extend recording in 30
minute increments.
Programming a new end time

display the Timer Recording screen.
