Hints for timer recording
•
If there is a power failure or this unit has been unplugged for more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all timer settings will be lost.
• If a disc is not on the tray, the DVD indicator on the front panel flashes and timer recording cannot be performed.
Please insert a recordable disc.
• If a tape with a record tab is not in the cassette compartment, the VCR indicator on the front panel flashes and timer
recording cannot be performed. Please insert a recordable tape.
• When all the timer recording is completed, the indicator flashes.To play or eject the recorded disc (or the tape),
press POWER button first and then press PLAY B or OPEN/CLOSE A (or STOP/EJECT CA
) button.
• The timer recording is not performed in DVD and VCR at the same time. If you set two programmings with the same
channel and time both in DVD and VCR, the programming that has priority will be recorded (see below for details).
•
During timer recording or timer standby ( indicator is on the front display), any operations on the unit will not be
available.To make these operations available, cancel the timer recording or timer standby first ( indicator disappears).
• To cancel the timer standby mode, press POWER button.
This unit records the programs according to priority if timer programmings are overlapping.The timer programming set
previously has priority.
A timer recording of lower priority will be canceled, start from the middle, or stop on the way.
Check the overlapping timer programmings and change the priority if necessary.
