Helpful Hints
To check the time remaining for an
OTR after the OTR has been set, press
the STATUS/EXIT button.
To change the recording length while
an OTR is in progress, press the
REC(ord)IOTR button until the desired
length appears on the screen.
If you begin an OTR when another
recording is paused, the OTR will
begin.
You can not pause an OTR.
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.
