Up to 8timer recording programs can be made using VCR Plus+
timer programing, Express timer programing or 24HR Quick
Programing method as far as a year in advance. Remember, the
clock must be set before you can program the timer.
NOTES:
If all the 8programs have already been set, PROGRAM FULL
or Full appears on the TV screen or the display panel.
After timer recording is completed, the VCR turns off
automatically.
You can program the timer recording while a regular recording
is in progress; the menu screens will not be recorded.
To timer-record cable or satellite channels, perform Cable Box
and/or DBS Receiver Control Setting and be sure to keep the
cable box or DBS receiver turned on.
Even if a power failure occurs, the VCR keeps your timer
programs. However, the clock time, channel settings, and other
menu settings are lost. As a result, when the power is supplied
again to this VCR after the power failure, this VCR starts the
Plug&Play setting automatically to restore the clock time and
channel setting. If the clock time and channel setting are
restored correctly, each timer program you have made will start
at its start time unless its end time has elapsed.
NOTE:
If the tape reaches its end during timer recording, the recording
stops and #, and $ on the display panel blink. Press
TIMER to disengage timer, then press STOP/EJECT (0) on the
VCR to eject the cassette or press POWER 1 then press REW
(3) on the Remote to rewind the tape.
