The timer indicator ( ) lights in the front panel
display when the timer is active. If the indicator is
blinking it means that (for a DVD timer recording)
there is no disc loaded, or the disc loaded is not
recordable (for an HDD timer recording it means that
the HDD is not recordable).
Approximately two minutes before a timer recording
is set to start, the recorder will go into timer recording
standby. In timer recording standby you cannot use
some functions.
The maximum length for timer recordings made to
the HDD is 24 hours. However, because one title
(HDD) is limited to 12 hours, recordings over 12
hours will be spread over two titles. Note that there
will be a break in the recording of a few seconds
between titles.
VPS/PDC may not work with all broadcast stations in
your country/area. Check with the stations for
compatibility.
The hours between 3:00 and 5:00 in the morning are
used by the GUIDE Plus+ system to download
program information. During these times, VPS/PDC
may not work reliably; leave VPS/PDC off if you set a
timer recording for these times.
