Basic Operations
The Timer Recording function allows you to preset your Video/TV to
record up to six programs within a one-month period.
Before you begin
• Make sure that the time and date clock are set. If not, the message
“Please set the clock first” is displayed on the screen. Refer to “Setting
the Clock” on page 12.
• Make sure that the loaded cassette has its safety tab. If a cassette
without safety tab is loaded, the message “Please insert a recordable
tape” is displayed.
