For Example . . .

Recording a program of 140 minutes in length onto a 120- minute tape

Approximately 110 minutes

SP mode

Total 140 minutes

Make sure you set "AUTO SP→EP TIMER" to "ON" at the Function screen before the timer recording starts.

NOTES:

● If you have programmed the VCR to timer-record 2 or more programs, the second program and those thereafter may not fit on the tape if you set the Auto SP→EP Timer mode to "ON". In this case, make sure the mode is not engaged, then set the tape speed manually during timer programming.

● In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the tape.

● There may be some noise at the point on the tape where the VCR switches from SP to EP mode.

● The Auto SP→EP Timer feature is not available during ITR (Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will work with the following tapes: T(ST)-30, T(ST)-60, T(ST)-90, and T(ST)-120.
