• If you leave the VCR on past the

scheduled start time of a timer
recording, you will not be asked again
to turn off the VCR. The VCR might
store the recording for the same time
and day in the next year. Or, the
VCR may start recording when you
turn off the VCR power.

• If the end of the tape is reached

during a timer recording, recording
will stop. The VCR will eject the tape,
then turn itself off.

• If PROGRAM NOT COMPLETED/

CLASH appears at step 9, the timer
recording you just programmed
overlaps another timer recording. The
timer recording you just programmed
will not take place. The timer
recording menu will reappear. To
cancel a timer recording, see page 39.

• If you forget to turn off the VCR,

PLEASE TURN OFF VCR FOR TIMER
RECORDING flashes on your TV
screen two minutes before a timer
recording starts. To remove the
message, press the CLEAR button.
