Helpful Hint:

–Set the timer recording one minute ahead of the programme’s start time. This helps ensure the entire programme is recorded as the disc requires about 30 seconds to prepare for recording.

TIPS: Ensure that there is enough space on the recordable DVD before recording. Before you playback the DVD±R on another player, finalise the disc. See “Playing your recordings (DVD±R) on other DVD players”.
