The one touch recording (OTR) feature allows you to set an immediate timed recording 30 minutes to eight hours long. Before you begin:

Set up the channels at the VCR.

Select a recording speed (SP, LP, SLP) with the SPEED button.

Put a tape in the VCR. Make sure the tape’s record tab is intact

and the tape is long enough to record the program(s).

Place the VCR in VCR position. (The VCR light will appear on

the display panel. If it does not, press the VCR/TV button once.)

To stop an OTR before recording is finished, press the STOP/p button or the POWER button.

To cancel the OTR but continue recording, press the REC(ord)/OTR button repeatedly until REC appears in the upper left corner of the TV screen. (STATUS must be set to ON. See page 22 for details.) The REC light will remain on the display panel of the VCR, but the Timer light will disappear.

Helpful Hints

To check the time remaining for an OTR after the OTR has been set, press the STATUS/EXIT button.

To change the recording length while an OTR is in progress, press the REC(ord)/OTR button until the desired length appears on-screen.

If you begin an OTR when another recording is paused, the OTR will begin.

You can not pause an OTR.

If the preset time for a timer recording comes up during an OTR, the OTR has priority. The timer recording will not take place.
