Timer Recording with the VCR Plus+ Programming System (cont’d) 35
• If the preset time for a timer record-
ing comes up during an OTR, the
OTR has priority. A message will
remind you when the timer recording
was scheduled to begin. You may let
the OTR continue; the timer recording
will not take place. Or, stop the OTR
and turn off the VCR immediately.
The timer recording will take place if
you turn off the VCR before the timer
recording’s scheduled start time.
• To stop a started timer recording,
press the STOP/EJECT button on the
VCR.
• If the power fails for more than one
minute, programmed timer recordings
may be lost. Reset the clock before
resetting the timer recordings.
• If you are using a Cable Box/DBS,
timer recordings are programmed dif-
ferently. See pages eight and 32 - 33
for details.
See page 42 for more hints.
