Timer Recording (cont’d)
Hints for Timer Recording
• If there is a power failure or this unit has been unplugged for more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all timer settings will be lost.
•If a recordable disc is not on the tray or an unrecordable disc is on the tray, the DVD indicator on the front panel flashes and Timer recording cannot be performed. In some cases, the DVD indicator appears momentarily around the Timer starting time as the unit attempts to record. Please insert a recordable disc.
•If a videotape with a record tab is not in the cassette compartment or there is no videotape in the compartment, the VCR indicator on the front panel flashes and timer recording cannot be performed. Please insert a recordable videotape.
•If you hit [POWER] and turn on the unit while either DVD or VCR is in timer standby mode, the 
indicator lights off. In
this case, you cannot change the mode between DVD and VCR. You cannot change any settings using [SETUP] or edit discs.
•After step 11 on page 32, you can turn on the power to use the side of the unit that is free from Timer Recording (either DVD or VCR) for another recording by hitting [POWER] during timer standby. During Timer Recording, hit [SELECT] on the front panel, or [DVD] or [VCR] on the remote control. Note that you cannot change channels after Timer Recording started. You can use all recording/recording pause/OTR functions. However, the unit will begin receiving channel signals for Timer Recording 2 minutes before the programmed starting time. Unless the program that you are currently recording using the Timer Recording free side of the unit is on the same channel with the one programmed for Timer Recording, the unit pri- oritizes Timer Recording and the current recording will be automatically stopped. If the channels set for Timer recording and the current recording are same, the current recording will continue without interruption.
•If both DVD and VCR are timer programmed, you cannot use any functions for either unit during timer standby or Timer
Recording. If you want to use functions other than recording under such condition, cancel Timer Recording by hitting
•When the starting and ending time are same, the recording will be set for 24 hours. When the disc reaches the end during the recording, the unit turns itself off. If you want to continue the recording, cancel timer standby by hitting
the tape when it reaches the end. You can continue the recording by inserting a new tape.
• When the programmed starting and ending time are earlier than the current time, the setting will not be accepted and be cleared for redoing.
• If the starting time is earlier and the ending time is later than the current time, the recording will start right after you hit
•The Timer Recording cannot be performed in DVD and VCR at the same time. If you set two programming with the same channel and time in both units, the program with a lower program number will be recorded.
The priority of overlapped settings
This unit prioritizes recording as follows if the timer programmings are overlapped.
A Timer Recording of lower priority will be canceled, start from the middle or stop on the way. Check the overlapped timer programmings and change the priority if necessary.
