Basic Operations (Recording)
With the delayed recording feature, you can set this VCR so that it automatically comes on and records programs whenever you like - without your being around! You can record a program one time only, or you can automatically record a show every weekday or every week at the same time. You can preset as many as 8 timed recordings at once.
We suggest you try all the different ways of programming the VCR when you have some leisure time, so you can learn how it works. That way, when an important show is going to be on that you really want to record, you'll be confident that your timed recording setup will work.
| Types of Delayed Recordings |
ONE TIME | Records one show at a particular date and time. |
DAILY | Records a show at the same time every day of the week, |
Monday through Friday. | |
WEEKLY | Records a show at the same day and time every week. |
Your VCR can record up to 8 programs at different days and times, or up to 8 programs on the same day.

Assemble the information you need for timed recording:

Delayed Recording Steps
You set up the delayed recording using the
Press GUIDE, then press 2 for DELAYED RECORDING. Press number buttons 1, 2 or 3 for ONE TIME, DAILY, or WEEKLY RECORDING. Follow the flashing instructions on screen to complete the programming.

After you enter the channel and time, the VCR automatically shows the current date or the next date, whichever is most logical. Leave the date as it comes up, or enter new digits for the month and day.
You can correct any item entered as you go by pressing the CLEAR button repeatedly until the digit to be corrected flashes on the screen. Then, punch in the correct number. Illogical times and dates won't be accepted.
When everything is set as you want (even though some items may still be flashing), press GUIDE to program your settings into memory.
To preset additional recordings, repeat these steps. Otherwise, press GUIDE to return to the regular TV screen.
Don't forget to load a videocassette to record on.
Your delayed recording settings take effect when you turn off the power on the VCR.
