Notes:
•The VCR can record only one broadcast at a time. If you set the VCR’s timer to record broadcasts on different channels that start at the same time, the VCR only records the broadcast that has the lowest timer num- ber (see “Checking/Changing Timers” on Page 40).
•If two timer settings overlap, the one that starts first has priority. The VCR begins recording the second broadcast after the set time for the first broadcast is over.
•The VCR must be off at the start time you set for it to begin an automatic timer recording.
•If there is a power failure of more than 30 minutes during a timer recording, the recording does not resume after power is restored.
•If there is a power failure of more than 30 minutes before a start time, the VCR loses the clock setting and therefore does not start automatic timer recording. However, if you have an EDS channel in your area and have set the VCR to automatically set the clock from the EDS signal, the clock is reset within 10 minutes after power is restored and you turn on the VCR, and the VCR records at the set time(s).
