Press SYNCHRO REC on the VCR. The SYNCHRO REC indicator

Notes
This function may not work with some types of satellite tuners.
Some TVs or other equipment with timer functions will automatically turn off if no
operation is performed within a certain amount of time. In this case, the
Synchronized Recording also stops automatically.
When the connected equipment turns on while the SYNCHRO REC indicator
lights up in red, recording starts automatically.
If the settings for timer recording and Synchronized Recording overlap, the
programme that starts first has priority and the second programme starts recording
only after the first programme has finished.
The Auto Clock Set function does not work while the VCR stands by for
Synchronized Recording.
