Watch Another Programme While Recording On The Unit

While recording is going on, you can watch another programme on
the TV by using the TV’s tuner.
NOTE:
It is required that the remote control is set to be able to operate the TV
in advance. (pg.75)
1During recording, press TV/VIDEO to switch the TV’s input
mode so that the programme selected on the TV appears.
2Slide the TV/DVD switch to TV.
3Press PR+/– repeatedly to select the desired channel.
NOTE:
If a decoder is connected to the unit (pg. 77), you can select a
scrambled channel as well as other normal channels.

Instant Timer Recording (ITR)

This easy method lets you record for from 30 minutes to 6 hours
(selectable in 30-minutes interval), and shuts the unit off after
recording is finished.
1Press 7 on the unit to start recording.
2Press 7 again to engage the ITR mode.
On the front display panel, “0:30” appears.

extend the time. Each press extends recording time by 30 minutes.
NOTES:
You can only perform ITR using the 7 button on the unit.
During Instant Timer Recording, any other timer programmed
recording won’t start even if their start time has come. In such a case,
the timer programmed recording starts (if the end time of the timer
programmed recording is set after the end of Instant Timer
Recording) after the Instant Timer Recording finishes.
