simplified timer recording without having to use the programming timer. In order
to set the IRT properly the clock must be set before starting.
Follow the steps 1 through 5 on "Basic Recording Steps" on page 34.
After the recording has started, press the REC/IRT button again to indicate the
recording time on the display.
You can set the recording time length, which increases by intervals of 30
minutes, one hour, one and half hours, two hours, three hours, and four hours,
(i.e. 0:30, 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00) by continually pressing the REC/IRT
button. While you are recording, the time remaining is shown in the display.
At the end of your recording the display will read "0:00"; recording will then
automatically stop and the VCR will turn itself off.
To stop recording while in the IRT mode, press the POWER button and then
press the STOP button (this can be done either on the VCR or with the remote
control) within 10 seconds.
Setting the VCR to Record Later
With the delayed recording feature, you can set this VCR so that it automatically
comes on and records programs whenever you like--without your being around!
You can record a program one time only, or you can automatically record a show
every weekday or every week at the same time. You can preset as many as 8
timed recordings at once.
We suggest you try all the different ways of programming the VCR when you
have some leisure time, so you can learn how it works. That way, when an
important show is going to be on that you really want to record, you'll be
confident that your timed recording setup will work.
Types of Delayed Recordings
ONE TIME Records one show at a particular date and time.
DAILY Records a show at the same time every day of the week, Monday
through Friday.
WEEKLY Records a show at the same day and time every week.
Your VCR can record up to 8 programs at different days and times, or up to 8
programs on the same day.
