●If you have connected another appliance other than a satellite receiver to the rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN connectors, be sure not to engage the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode; otherwise, the recorder will start recording when the connected appliance's power is turned on.

●Auto Satellite Prog recording and timer-recording cannot be done at the same time.

●Auto Satellite Prog recording is only possible with the rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN connectors.

●When the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode is engaged or the recorder's power is turned off after Auto Satellite Prog recording is finished, the recorder will not enter the Timer mode even though “AUTO TIMER” is set to “ON”.

●For timer programming of the satellite receiver, refer to the instruction manual of the satellite receiver.

●Auto Satellite Prog recording is not possible if your satellite receiver does not have a timer.

●The REC LINK indicator blinks while Auto Satellite Prog recording is in progress.

●Pressing the recorder's button while Auto Satellite Prog recording is in progress turns off and recorder's power and disengages the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode.

●The B.E.S.T. ( ☞ pg. 20) does not work while Auto Satellite Prog recording is in progress.

●Depending on the type of satellite receiver, the recorder may not record a short portion at the beginning of the program or may record slightly longer than the actual length of the program.
