This function cannot be done from the remote control.

Recording starts immediately when you press REC/OTR.

Before you begin, make sure ...

Helpful Hints

If you press REC/OTR 18 times, normal recording resumes.

To stop an OTR, press STOP/p.

To show the remaining time, press DISPLAY. OTR will appear briefly on the TV screen.

Recording stops when 0:00 is reached.

The maximum recording time of a T-160 tape in SLP speed is 8 hours (assuming you start at the beginning of the tape). A T-120 tape has a maximum of 6 hours recording time in SLP speed.

If the tape ends before the recording’s end time, the TV/VCR will stop recording, eject the

tape, and turn itself off.
