JProgramming a recording (TIMER)

General

Use programmed recording (TIMER) to automatically start and stop a recording at a later date. The DVD Recorder will switch to the right channel and begin recording at the correct time. With this DVD recorder, you can pre-program up to 6 recordings within a period of one year.

To make a programmed recording, your DVD Recorder needs to know:

*the date of the recording

*the channel number of the TV channel

*the start and stop time of the recording

*the recording mode ('M1/M2/M2x/M3/M4/ M6/M8') This information is saved in a TIMER block.

Before you begin, make sure the clock is set. If the clock is not set, the 'Time/Date' menu will appear when you press the TIMER button.
