a blank DVD disc (if recording to HDD).

If a message indicating that the HDD is full
appears on the screen, change the recording
destination to “DVD,” or make available space

becomes the default recording mode for timer
recordings made from the GUIDE Plus+ system.

DVD) once the recording starts.
