Recording Pause

To prevent recording short passages of unwanted material, use PAUSE during recording to stop and start recording. The VCR automatically switches from pause to stop after a few minutes.

This feature is useful to tamper proof your timer recordings from unwanted changes and/or protect the VCR from misoperation by other users in the household. It also prohibits all operations of the VCR once the feature is turned on.

The TIMER and RECORD indicators on the front panel flash to let you know the feature is activated. After the feature is turned on, momentarily pressing POWER also causes the indicators to flash.
