NOTES:

You can program this unit to timer record, regardless of the disc remaining time. When the disc remaining time is not enough, the unit performs ARelief RecordingB (A pg. 48). To avoid this, make sure of the disc remaining time before setting timer programming. (Example) If you programmed to timer record for 60 minutes in SP mode on a 120-minute disc, the disc remaining time would be 30 minutes in XP mode, 60 minutes in SP mode, 120 minutes in LP mode, 180 minutes in EP mode, and 240 minutes in FR480 mode. Timer recording will not complete beyond these remaining times.

The maximum recording time of FR (JUST) mode is the same as the recording time of FR480 mode. When timer programming a long program in FR (JUST) mode on a disc whose remaining time is short, it is recommended to check the disc remaining time in FR480 mode to see if the remaining time is enough for the program.

Even if more than one program are timer programmed in FR (JUST) mode, only the first one is recorded.

In order to ensure that the recording fits on the disc, this feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the disc.

There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on the disc where the unit switches the mode.
