Editing While Recording
You can edit while recording,
selecting only those scenes you

P./STILL again.

you record television programs
with the touch of a button. You
can program the length of time
(up to four hours) that you want
to record.
1 Insert a video cassette tape,
set the tape speed, and
select the channel you want
to record.

record safety tab on the tape
has been removed. For more
information, see page 33.

remote control three times.

Your recording time options
are: 30 minutes, 1 hour, 1
hour and 30 minutes, 2 hours,
3 hours, or 4 hours.

remote control repeatedly
until the time you want
appears.
The TV/VCR begins recording.
You can increase the length
of time you want to record at
any time during the recording
process by pressing the REC
button again and choosing
additional time.
If you want to stop recording
before the time is up, press
the REC button until the OTR
display shows “0:00.” The
recording stops after a few
seconds. You can also press
POWER on the front panel,
then press STOP/EJECT.

up to six different programs. The
