Timer Recording Notes

• The Timer indicator lights on the
front panel display when the DVD
Recorder+VCR is ready for timer re-
cording.
• If the Disc and Tape indicator are
blinking, either no disc or tape is
loaded, or the loaded disc is not re-
cordable.
• The DVD Recorder+VCR will record
the audio according to the current
TV tuner setting (Stereo, Mono or
SAP). Use the AUDIO button to set
the audio before turning off the DVD
Recorder+VCR.
• The DVD Recorder+VCR will auto-
matically power off when the Timer
Recording ends (unless the non-re-
cording deck is in use).
• There is a short delay when a timer
recording finishes to confirm the re-
corded program. If two timer record-
ings are set to record sequentially
(one right after the other), the very
beginning of the later program may
not be recorded.

Troubleshooting

Even if a Timer Recording is set, the
DVD Recorder+VCR will not record if:
• No disc (or tape) is loaded.
• A non-recordable disc (or tape) is
loaded.
• The disc is protected in the Setup
menu; see page 30.
• There are already 99 titles (DVD-R/
RW) or 49 titles (DVD+R/RW ) record-
ed on the disc.
You cannot enter a Timer Recording if:
• A recording is already in progress.
• The start time has already passed.
• Eight Timer Recordings have already
been programmed.
If two or more Timer Recordings
overlap:
• The earlier program takes priority.
• When the earlier program finishes,
the later program starts.
• If two programs are set to start at
exactly the same time, the program
entered first takes priority.
If the recordable disc is damaged, the
recording may not complete successfully,
even if the Check field shows ‘Rec. OK‘.
