If you have programmed the recorder to timer-record 2 or more

 

 

programmes, the second programme and those thereafter may

 

 

not fit on the tape if you set “AUTO SP]LP TIMER” to “ON”. In

 

 

this case, make sure the mode is not engaged, then set the tape

 

 

speed manually during timer programming.

 

 

In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this feature

 

 

may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the tape.

 

 

There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on

 

 

the tape where the recorder switches from SP to LP mode.

 

 

The Auto SP]LP Timer feature is not available during ITR

 

 

(Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work properly

 

 

with any tapes longer than E-180, or with some tapes of shorter

 

 

lengths.

 

 

 

 

If you perform timer recording with both VPS/PDC and the Auto

 

 

SP]LP Timer activated, and the programme goes beyond its

 

 

originally scheduled length, there may be times when the

 

 

programme cannot be recorded in its entirety.
