REC

1 During timer recording, press and hold REC for three seconds.

Only the program is canceled (the timer indicator disappears); recording continues so that you can manually stop recording whenever you like.

2When you want to stop recording completely, press .

Preventing use of the recorder before a timer recording (child lock)

You can make all the front panel and remote control buttons inoperative using the child lock feature. This is useful when you set a timer recording and want to make sure that the timer settings are not changed before recording has finished.

1 If the recorder is on, switch it into standby.

2 Press and hold on the front panel for three seconds to lock the controls.

The front panel display briefly shows LOCK. If any buttons are pressed on the remote or front panel, LOCK is briefly displayed again.

• To unlock the recorder, press and hold on the front panel for three seconds until the display shows OK.

To cancel a timer recording when the recorder is locked, first unlock the recorder (see above), then press and hold REC for three seconds.

Timer recording FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Even though the timer is set, the recorder doesn’t start recording!

Check that the disc loaded is recordable, not locked (see Lock Disc on page 50), and that there are fewer than 99 titles already on the DVD.

The recorder won’t let me enter a timer program! Why not?

You can’t enter a timer program if the clock isn’t set.

What happens when two or more timer programs overlap?

Basically, the program with the earlier recording start time has priority. However, the recorder will start recording the program with the later start time after the earlier program is finished. If two programs have the same times (but different channels, for example), the program displayed higher up in the list in the timer recording screen has priority.
