Timer Recording

Follow the steps below to program your VCR to record TV programs while you're away from home. You can program up to eight timer record- ings. For each one, the VCR will turn itself on, record, and turn itself off automatically. Before you begin make

sure:

•Channels have been programmed.

•The clock has been set.

•There is a tape in the VCR (make sure the tape's record tab is intact and the tape is long enough to record the program(s).

•The VCR is in VCR position.

You must do each step within 60 sec- onds of completing the previous step. If you don't, you will have to start again at step 1.
