The VCR won’t record on a video
cassette tape if the record safety tab
on the tape has been removed. For
information on the record safety tab,
see page A.3.
Your recording time options are: 30 minutes, 1 hour, 1 hour and 30 minutes, 2 hours, 3
hours, or 4 hours.
You can increase the length of time you want to record at any time during the recording
process by pressing the REC button again and choosing additional time.
If you want to stop recording before the time is up, press the REC button until the OTR
display shows “0:00.” The recording stops after a few seconds. Or, press the POWER
button on the front panel, then immediately press the STOP/EJECT button.
Note: In DVD mode, the OTR function doesn't operate with the REC button on the
front panel. A normal recording only operates.
