Programming the Timer
The programmable clock/timer permits unattended recording of up to four different TV programs. The timer is actually a small computer which will turn on the VCR at the time you select, record for a selected length
of time, and then turn off the VCR... all automatically without you being there.
You can program the timer to do the
following:
•Record a program on a single day up to one year away. [NORMAL PROGRAM]
•Record a program at the same time Monday through Friday. [DAILY PROGRAM]
•Record a program on one certain day of every week. [WEEKLY PROGRAM]
Things to know before you start:
•You can program the timer up to one year before the TV program is to be recorded.
•You can correct an error in the program any time before the last step by pressing CLEAR repeatedly until the digit to be corrected is flashing. Then
enter the correct digit and continue the programming sequence.
[
I11 Make sure the VCR's clock is set to the correct time. The timer cannot record at the right time if the clock is set incorrectly. Reset the clock if necessary.
Press PROGRAM on the remote hand unit.
The programming "menu" appears on the status display.

Four program numbers are available and you can enter different programming instructions in each
one. All four program numbers will be flashing because none of them have been used. If the timer
has been programmed, the number that was used will stay on instead of flashing. You must clear a program number before the same number can be used again. See "Clearing a Timer Program" on the next page.
