sure that the timer settings are not changed before
recording has finished.

seconds to lock the controls.
The front panel display briefly shows LOCK . If any buttons
are pressed on the remote or front panel, LOCK is briefly
displayed again.
• To unlock the recorder, press and hold STOP on
the front panel for 3 seconds until the display shows
UNLOCK .
• To cancel a timer recording when the recorder is
locked, first unlock the recorder (see above), then
press and hold
ì REC for 3 seconds.
Timer recording FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
• Even though the timer is set, the recorder doesn’t start
recording!
Check that the disc loaded is recordable, not locked
(see
Lock Disc on page 70), and that there are fewer
than 99 titles already on the DVD.
• The recorder won’t let me enter a timer program! Why
not?
You can’t enter a timer program while a timer
recording is in progress, during timer recording
standby or when the clock isn’t set.
• What happens when two or more timer programs
overlap?
Basically, the program with the earlier recording start
time has priority. However, the recorder will start
recording the program with the later start time after
the earlier program is finished. If two programs have
the same times (but different channels, for example),
the program set most recently takes priority.
If VPS/PDC is active for two timer programs that are
programmed to start at the same time, then the
program that actually starts first takes priority.
