Hints for OTR and Timer Recording

Press VCR on the remote control before you set Timer Recording. Make sure the remote control is in the VCR mode, then press SUBTITLE/TIMER.

If a tape is not in the unit or does not have the record tab, TIMER indicator on the front panel and the light flash and Timer Recording cannot be performed. Please insert a recordable tape.

When Timer Recordings are set, TIMER indicator on the front panel and the light will appear. To use the VCR as usual until the time for the recording, press SUBTITLE/TIMER so that TIMER indicator on the front panel and the light

disappear. Press VCR/TV to choose the VCR position. Select either VCR or DVD mode, then continue with the other features as described in this manual. The light will not appear in the DVD mode. However, the Timer Recordings will remain as programmed.

After an OTR and a Timer Recording has been set, this unit operates as follows:

If a tape runs out before an OTR or a Timer Recording is finished, the unit ejects the tape and switches to the DVD mode automatically. Press SUBTITLE/TIMER on the remote control or STOP/EJECT C/A on the unit, then press VCR to activate the VCR function again.

Once the unit turns to the timer standby mode, no VCR functions are available until SUBTITLE/TIMER is pressed. (OUTPUT on the front panel and VCR on the remote control will not function.)

To cancel the timer standby mode, press SUBTITLE/TIMER on the remote control or STOP/EJECT C/A on the unit, then press VCR to activate the VCR function again.

The mode of the unit and the remote control may differ (VCR mode or DVD mode) when you set Timer Recording or after you cancelled Timer Recording. Press VCR or DVD on the remote control to select your desired mode before you operate.

When an OTR or a Timer Recording is completed...

If there are Timer Recordings on standby, the unit switches to the DVD mode automatically, and the TIMER indicator on the front panel lights up to indicate the unit is in the timer standby mode. In some occasions, however, the VCR/DVD may be automatically turned off, instead of changing to the DVD mode after pressing REC/OTR.

The TIMER indicator on the front panel flashes if there are no more Timer Recordings on standby.

Once the unit switches to the DVD mode, all VCR functions will be unavailable. “” will not appear as long as the DVD is in use. All DVD functions are available during OTR, timer standby mode and Timer Recording.

If you want to use the VCR/DVD during a timer recording or while the light is on or flashing.

Press y/I to turn on the VCR/DVD. Press DVD on the remote control to choose DVD mode, then continue with the other DVD features as described in this manual. You don’t need to set the TIMER off to use the VCR/DVD.

Note (for Timer Recording) :

If there is a power failure or the unit is unplugged for more than 30 seconds, clock and all timer settings will be lost.
