Instant Timer Recording (ITR)

Your VCR allows you to make recordings using a variety of simple methods:

Instant Timer Recording (ITR) start recording immediately for a set period of time or until the video cassette runs out.

Your DVD+VCR incorporates Long Play (LP) which enables you to record up to twice the amount of time on a video cassette. For example an E-180 will record up to 180 minutes using Standard Play (SP); using LP you will be able to record up to 360 minutes. Please note there will be a slight loss in picture and sound quality when using LP.

1 Make sure that you have correctly connected your VCR as described earlier in this book.

Press 1 to turn on your VCR.

2 Insert a video cassette with protection tab into your VCR.

The video cassette should have the window side facing up and the arrow facing away from you.

3 Press 3 or 4 to select the programme number you wish to record.

You may also directly select programme number using the numbered buttons on the remote control.

4 If you wish to record directly from the SCART or RCA sockets repeatedly press INPUT until the socket you wish to record from is displayed.

AV 1 for recording from EURO AV1 SCART socket on the rear of your unit.

AV 2 for recording from EURO AV2 SCART socket on the rear of your unit.

AV 3 for recording from VIDEO IN and AUDIO IN (Left & Right) sockets on the front of your unit.

5 Press REPEAT A-Bif you wish to record in Long Play or Standard Play.

SP will produce improved picture and sound quality, however LP will provide twice as much recording time as SP.

Press PAUSE/STEP ; to continue recording.

If you press PAUSE/STEP ; during ITR, the DVD/VCR will enter the record pause mode and ITR is cancelled. Tapes can be paused for up to 5 minutes; RECP will be displayed when a tape is paused. After 5 minutes your DVD+VCR will stop recording to

prevent damaging the tape or your DVD+VCR.

8 Press STOP x to end recording.

STOP will appear on the TV screen for a few seconds.

Notes
