Hints for Timer Recording
• If there is a power failure or the unit is unplugged for
more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all
timer settings will be lost.
• If there is no disc or an unrecordable disc in the tray,
the DVD indicator on the front panel display will
flash and timer recording will not occur. Insert a
recordable disc.
• If there is no tape or a tape with a record tab is not in
the cassette compartment, the VCR indicator on the
front panel display flashes and timer recording
cannot be performed. Please insert a recordable
tape.
• When all timer recordings are complete, the
icon flashes. To play back or eject the recorded disc,
press [TIMER ], and then press [PLAY P] or
[OPEN/CLOSE/EJECT O].
• The timer recording cannot be performed in DVD
and VCR at the same time. If you set two
programmings with the same channel and time both
in DVD and VCR, the programming that has priority
will be recorded.
• You cannot make any DVD operation during DVD
timer recording.
• You cannot make any VCR operation during VCR
timer recording.
• If the Start and End times are same, the length of
the recording will be set for 24 hours. If the disc
becomes full during recording, the unit will turn itself
off. To continue recording, press [TIMER ] to
cancel the timer-standby mode, insert a recordable
disc and press [TIMER ] again.
• If two or more programmes overlap, “Overlap” and
the overlapped programme number will appear on
the display.
• If the Start time is earlier and the End time is later
than the current time, the recording will start
immediately after you press [TIMER ].
• If a videotape ends during timer recording, the unit
will automatically stop, eject the videotape, and turn
itself off. To continue recording, insert a recordable
tape.
