General information

Use 'Manual Recording' to make a sponta- neous recording (for example, a programme cur- rently being shown).

If you want to start and stop a recording manual- ly, read the section 'Recording without auto- matic switch-off'.

If you want to start a recording manually but have it stopped automatically, read the section

'Recording with automatic switch-off'. (e.g. not to record to the end of the tape)

Preventing accidental erasing of cassettes

All cassettes (except for rental and store cas- settes) have a security tab on the back of the cassette.

To prevent recording over important recordings (erasing), you can remove this security tab.

If you later decide to record on a protected cas- sette, simply cover the hole with adhesive tape or slide the tab to the right.

Lining up recordings (assemble cut)

When you add a further recording to a cassette, which already has a recording on it, a short blank (flicker) can appear between the old and the new recording or the picture itself can flicker. To help reduce these from occurring, proceed as follows:

1.Find the tape position of the old recording where you want to insert the new recording.

2.Look at the last minute of the old recording (playback).

3.Press STILL 2 at the tape position where the new recording is to go and press

RECORD/OTR I .

4.Now start recording as usual by pressing on the remote control.

5.Stop recording with L C .
