Other Useful functions for timer recording

You can also use the following functions for timer recording.

“AUTO TIMER” (A page 68)

When “AUTO TIMER” is set to “ON”, the timer recording standby mode is automatically engaged when the VCR is turned off. It is temporarily canceled when the VCR is turned on. You do not have to press [TIMER (j)] to engage or disengage the timer recording standby mode.

“AUTO SP N EP TIMER” (S-VHS/VHS only) (A page 68)

If there is not enough tape to record the entire broadcast for recording in SP mode, the VCR automatically switches to EP mode to allow complete recording. This feature is especially handy when recording a broadcast of more than 2 hours in length.
