channel 3 or 4 in Monitor mode. (Choose the output channel of
your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver.)
If your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver has Audio/Video Out jacks, set
the Recorder to an EXT channel. Choose the EXT channel that cor-

(the jacks to which you connected the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver).
Then, change TV channels at the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver.

Press REC/OTR I twice to start a 30-minute recording.
Press REC/OTR I repeatedly to record longer segments in

on the current recording mode/speed and the amount of time avail-
able on the Disc. See page 37. Recording will begin soon after you
press REC/OTR I.The Disc takes a few seconds to prepare for
recording.
Or, use Safe Record to have the Recorder automatically find the
empty space at the end of a DVD+RW; this prevents overwriting
other recordings.To do so, press and hold REC/OTR I for about
two seconds, or until SAFE REC appears on the Recorder’s display
panel.Then, press REC/OTR
I repeatedly to choose the time length
you want for your recording.

Then the Recorder will turn itself off.
