One-Touch Recording (OTR) lets you set an immediate timed recording 30 minutes to eight hours long. Before you begin:

●Place the DVD/VCR in VCR mode. Press OUTPUT SELECT so the green VIDEO light appears on the front of the DVD/VCR.

●Place the DVD/VCR in VCR position. Press VCR/TV so the green VCR/TV light appears on the front of the DVD/VCR.

●Set up the TV channels at the DVD/VCR. Details are on page 24.

●Select a recording speed (SP, SLP) with the SPEED button.

●Put a tape in the cassette compartment of the DVD/VCR. Make sure the tape’s record tab is intact and the tape is long enough to record the program(s).

●If the end of a tape is reached during an OTR, the DVD/VCR will eject the tape. The DVD/VCR will switch to DVD mode immediately, and the TIMER light will blink. To let the OTR continue, insert another tape in the DVD/VCR.

To return to VCR mode, press TIMER on the front of the DVD/VCR to cancel the OTR, then press OUTPUT SELECT so the green VIDEO light appears on the front of the DVD/VCR.
