34 Timer Recording

Follow the steps below to program your VCR to record TV pro- grams while you’re away from home. You can program up to eight timer recordings. For each one, the VCR will turn itself on, record, and turn itself off automatically. Before you begin make sure:

●Channels are programmed.

●The clock is set.

●There is a tape in the VCR. Make sure the tape’s record tab is intact and the tape is long enough to record the program(s).

●The VCR is in VCR position. The VCR light will appear on the display panel when the VCR is in VCR position. If the VCR light does not appear, press the VCR/TV button once.

Do each step within 60 seconds of completing the previ- ous step. If you don’t, you may start again at step 1.
