When you use the Direct Rec function, be sure to use a TV offering T-V LINK, etc. and connect a

During the Direct Rec, “– –” appears on the front display panel.

 

If a programme is recorded with the Direct Rec, the station name will not be registered for the

 

Navigation. “– – – –” will be displayed for the station name.

 

Even if there is no power supply for more than 10 minutes, the recorder keeps the setting.

 

If you use the remote control of your TV to record the programme with the Direct Rec, the programme

 

will be recorded on the HDD deck, even if you select the VHS deck. In this case, first few seconds of

 

the programme will not be recorded.
