The Timer Record menu will appear.

AT (Auto) mode determines how much time is
available on the disc or tape and switches record
mode, if necessary, to complete recording the
program.
• PDC – The PDC system automatically adjusts the
recording time so that even if a program is not
running to schedule, you won’t miss it. For PDC
to work properly, you must input the correct
announced time and date of the program you
want to record.
Note that PDC may not work with every station.
otes
• Stations that use PDC typically include PDC
information in the teletext TV guide pages.
Please refer to these pages when setting a
timer recording.
• This recorder takes approximately 20 seconds
to switch on and start recording. This means
that when using PDC, there may be instances
where the beginning of the program is not
recorded.
