NOTES:

●Even if a power failure occurs, the VCR keeps your timer programs. However, the clock time, channel settings, and other menu settings are lost if it lasts for more than 3 minutes. As a result, when the power is supplied again to this VCR after the power failure, the following will take place.

1.This VCR starts the Plug & Play setting automatically to restore the clock time and channel setting.

2.If the clock time and channel setting are restored correctly, each timer program you have made will start unless its end time already passes.

●Programs that start after midnight must have the next day’s date.

●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.

●If the tape reaches its end during timer recording, the cassette is automatically ejected.

●To timer-record cable or satellite channels, be sure to keep the cable box or DBS receiver turned on.
