Automatic Timer Recording Hints

•If there a power failure or the TV/VCR is un- plugged for more than 10 seconds, the clock setting and all timer settings are lost. At this

time, display will automatically return to the

Clock Set mode when you choose program set mode.

•If two timer programs overlap, the one that

starts first has priority. When the first program ends, the TV/VCR switches to record the re-

mainder of the second program.

•Make sure the channel you want to record is properly tuned in advance.

•The erase-prevention tab on the cassette must be in place (or you must put tape over the hole).

Note: A cassette without erase-prevention tab will be ejected when in the Timer Rec mode.

•It is not necessary to press REC button for timer recording.

•Recording begins automatically at the set Start time.

•If you are recording using the Automatic Timer Programmed, you may not operate the unit manually, but, you may still stop the recording by pressing STOP button on the TV/VCR. Note: STOP button on the remote control unit will not function in this mode.

•If the tape runs out before the end time, the TV/VCR will switch to the Stop mode im- mediately, and tape will be ejected.

•If a tape is not loaded or the erase-protection

tab is removed, the TIMER REC indicator flashes and automatic timer recording cannot occur. Press POWER button to stop the flash- ing. Then, load a tape that allows recording.
