ATTENTION:

When performing timer programming of a digital (ATSC) program, the VCR must be set to the standby mode condition 10 minutes before the start time of a program.

As timer recording is performed based on the time information of each program, timer standby and timer recording may not be possible due to deviation in the timer information of each program if the VCR is set to standby mode within 10 minutes of the program start time. In such cases, press [REC] to perform manual recording.

The clock must be set to access the timer screen. If you have not set the clock, an error message will be displayed. Refer to page 15 for the clock setting procedure.

When the received channel is not a digital (DTV) channel, “CAN NOT SET ON THIS CHANNEL SELECT DTV CHANNEL THEN RETRY” appears on the screen.

When receiving digital broadcast, if the “DIGITAL PROGRAM” is set to access the timer screen at the same instant a blocked program or scene is received, the timer screen will not be displayed. In addition, if a blocked program or scene is received while the timer screen is being displayed, the timer screen will disappear from the screen.
