Timer Recording with VCR Plus+

Most television guides list a 1- to 8-digit num- ber called a PlusCodenext to many of the listed programs. You can use these PlusCodes to easily program your VCR to record broad- casts.

You can set the VCR to record as many as eight broadcasts, including any timer programs you want to set up (see “Automatic Timer Re- cording” on Page 37).

You can set the VCR to record at any time on a specific day, at the same time each week, or the same time Monday through Friday.

Before you start, be sure you have set the VCR Plus+ guide channels for your area (see “Set- ting the VCR Plus+ Guide Channels” on Page 34).

Note: The VCR can record only one broadcast at a time. If you schedule recording of broad- casts on different channels that start at the same time, the VCR records the lowest timer number. For more information about timer numbers, see “Setting a Timer” on Page 38.

1.Turn on the TV and set it to the same chan- nel as the VCR’s 3 CH. 4 switch.

Note: If you are using a TV/monitor that is connected to the VCR’s R-AUDIO-L/VIDEO OUT jacks, set it to the video mode.

2.Insert a blank cassette, or one that you want to record over, into the VCR. The VCR turns on.

3.Repeatedly press TV/VCR until VCR appears.
