One-touch Timer Recording
With this feature you can record for a preset length
without using the program timer.
1. Turn on DVD+VCR and the TV.
2. Be sure the TV is tuned to the DVD+VCR output
channel (CH 3 or 4). If a direct VIDEO/AUDIO con-
nection is made between the DVD+VCR and the TV,
set the TV’s source selector to VIDEO.
3. Insert a video cassette with the safety tab intact.
4. Select the desired channel using CH/TRK (v/V) or
the number buttons (0-9). The channel number
appears on the TV screen. If you are recording from
another source via audio/video input jacks, select
LINE1 (rear jacks) or LINE2 (front jacks) by using
INPUT SELECT.
5. Set the desired recording speed (SP or SLP) using
SP/SLP. The tape speed appears on the TV screen.
6. Press REC/OTR twice. The menu appears on the
TV screen, recording starts, and the (TIMER)

time length. Each time you press this button the
recording time increases 30 minutes (up to 9 hours).
At the end of the recording, the DVD+VCR will stop
recording and shut off.
If you set the time to 0H00M, the DVD+VCR goes
into the normal recording mode. Press STOP (x) to
stop the recording.
