Programming a Timer Recording of a TV Programme Until its End

(Rec Mode Auto Change Function)

If the VCR determines that the remaining tape time is insufficient to record the programme to its end during a timer recording performed in the SP mode, this function automatically changes the Rec Mode to ensure that the whole programme will be recorded.

The Rec Mode will change as follows:

PAL system:

SP # LP

NTSC system:

SP # EP

This function cannot change the recording mode to the EP mode for PAL system.

Depending on the remaining tape length, recording may be performed in the LP (EP) mode from the start. However, if the remaining tape time is still not sufficient in this case, the programme cannot be recorded to the end.

The tape length must be set correctly. (See page 8.) Some tapes may not work correctly.

Timer recording for the same programme on the next week (Intelligent Timer)

When you wish to set the timer recording for programmes which will be recorded within 1 week and you have ever recorded the programmes before, you can record them soon with I-TIMER function without entering day and time by buttons. Select the desired setting from the list of timer programme recorded before. Please check the date and time carefully.

Preparations

The VCR must be turned on, or in timer recording standby mode.

Confirm that the TV is on and the VCR viewing channel is selected.
