Timer Recording Hints

The Model 36 can record only one broad- cast at a time. If you program the Model 36’s timer to record broadcasts on different channels that start at the same time, the Model 36 records these broadcasts in order as they appear on the list, from top to bot- tom.

If you insert a tape with its erase-protection tab removed and set a timer, the tape ejects.

TIMER REC STANDBY flashes for 2 min- utes before a set start time if the Model 36 is still on. If this happens, press POWER to turn it off.

When there is a power failure or the Model 36 is unplugged for more than a few sec- onds, the Model 36’s clock might be cleared. However, the timer settings are saved. You must set the clock (either using the auto clock set feature or manually) before the Model 36 will perform the timer recording.

If automatic timers overlap, the one that starts first has priority. When the first pro- gram ends, the Model 36 switches to record the remainder of the second pro- gram.

The REC/TIMER REC indicator turns off after the last timer recording ends.
