You can record a TV show in
progress by inserting a blank
tape and pressing the Record
button. You can even add time
in fixed 30-minute increments
by pressing the Record button
repeatedly.
Note: Be sure your videotape
has a Record Safety Tab. If the
tab is missing, you can cover
the opening with a small piece
of tape. Warning: Do not cover
this opening unless you are
sure you want to record over
the tape.
