Hints for the Timer Recording
• If there is a power failure or the unit is unplugged for
more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all 
timer settings will be lost.
• If there is no disc or an unrecordable disc in the tray
(finalised DVD-RW/-R, finalised DVD+R, a fully 
recorded disc, etc.), the DVD on the front panel 
display will flash and the timer recording will not 
occur. Insert a recordable disc.
• If there is no tape or a tape with a record tab is not in
the cassette compartment, the VCR on the front 
panel display will flash and the timer recording 
cannot be performed. Please insert a recordable 
tape.
• When all timer recordings are complete, the
icon flashes. To play back or eject the recorded disc, 
press [TIMER SET], and then press [PLAY 
P] or
[OPEN / CLOSE
O].
• The timer recording cannot be performed in DVD
and VCR at the same time. If you set two 
programmings with the same channel and time both 
in DVD and VCR, the programming that has priority 
will be recorded.
• You cannot make any DVD operation during DVD
timer recording.
• You cannot make any VCR operation during VCR
timer recording.
• If the Start and End times are same, the length of
the recording will be set for 24 hours. If the disc or 
tape becomes full during recording, the unit will turn 
itself off. To continue recording, press [TIMER SET] 
to cancel the timer-standby mode, insert a 
recordable disc or tape and press [TIMER SET] 
again.
• When 2 or more programmes are overlapped,
“Timer program overlapped” appears, and the 
overlapped programme will be displayed in blue. To 
correct the timer programme refer to “Checking, 
Cancelling or Correcting the Timer Programming 
Information” on page 34.
• If the Start time is earlier and the End time is later
than the current time, the recording will start 
immediately after you press [TIMER SET].
• If a videotape ends during the timer recording, the
unit will automatically stop, eject the videotape, and 
turn itself off. To continue recording, insert a 
recordable tape.
Priority of overlapped settings
The unit records programmes according to priority if 
the timer programmes overlap.
If the starting time is same:
• The timer programming set first (PROG. 1) has 
priority.
When the starting time and the ending time for 
each programmes are different:
• A programme that has earlier start time has priority.
