Basic Operations
Recording TV programs using the Dial
Timer
The Dial Timer function allows you to make
timer recordings of programs without turning
on your TV. Set the recording timer to record
up to eight programs that will be broadcast
within a month using the DIAL TIMER. The
recording start time and recording stop time
can be set at one minute intervals.
Before you start….
• Turn on the DVD-VCR.
• When using a cable box, turn it on.
• Insert a tape with its safety tab in place. Make sure the tape is longer than the total recording
time.
