Up to 8 timer recording programs can be made using express
timer programing method as far as a year in advance. Remember,
the clock must be set before you can program the timer.
NOTES:
● If all the 8 programs have already been set, “PROGRAM FULL”
appears on the TV screen.
● After timer recording is completed, the VCR turns off
automatically.
● You can program the timer recording while a regular recording
is in progress; the menu screens will not be recorded.
● Even if a power failure occurs, the VCR keeps your timer
programs. However, the clock time, channel settings, and other
menu settings are lost. As a result, when the power is supplied
again to this VCR after the power failure, this VCR starts the
Plug&Play setting automatically to restore the clock time and
channel setting. If the clock time and channel setting are
restored correctly, each timer program you have made will start
at its start time unless its end time has elapsed.
● If the tape reaches its end during timer recording, the recording
stops and “
#“, “ ⅜” and “ $” on the display panel blink. Press
TIMER to disengage timer, then press STOP/EJECT (0) on
the VCR to eject the cassette or press POWER 1 then press
REW (3) to rewind the tape.
