Tips
• To set the programme position, you can also use the PROG +/– or programme number
buttons.
• To set the programme position with a two digit number, press - (ten’s digit) button followed
by the programme number buttons.

• To set the tape speed, you can also use the SP/LP button.
• When you are recording a programme in the SP mode and the remaining tape becomes
shorter than the recording time, the tape speed is automatically changed to the LP mode.
Note that some interference will appear on the picture at the point the tape speed is changed.
If you want to keep the same tape speed, set AUTO LONG PLAY to OFF in the OPTIONS-1

OK in step 2. For details, see step 3 in “Checking/changing/cancelling timer settings” (page

Notes
• When setting the timer with VPS/PDC signals, enter the start and stop times exactly as
indicated in the TV programme guide. Otherwise, the VPS/PDC function won’t work.
• If the VPS/PDC signal is too weak or the broadcasting station failed to transmit VPS/PDC
signals, the VCR will start recording at the set time without using the VPS/PDC function.
• The indicator flashes in the display window when you press ?/1 with no tape inserted.
• The VPS/PDC function is automatically set to OFF for the timer recording of a programme
from your set top box.
• The station name may not appear if the VCR does not receive station name information
signals.
