1Do Steps 1 to 7 in “Recording on an MD” on pages 9 and 10.

2• If you want to specify the time for the start of recording, press p.

If you want to specify the time for the end of recording, do Steps 8 and 9 in “Recording on an MD” on page 10.

If you want to specify the time for both start and end of recording, press p.

3Set TIMER on the deck to REC.

4Set the timer as required.

When you have set the time for the start of recording, the deck turns off. When the specified time arrives, the deck turns on and starts recording.

When you have set the time for the end of recording, recording continues. When the specified time arrives, the deck stops recording and turns off.

When you have set the time for both the start and end of recording, the deck turns off. When the starting time arrives, the deck turns on and starts recording. When the ending time arrives, the deck stops recording and turns off.

5After you have finished using the timer, set TIMER on the deck to OFF. Then place the deck in standby status by plugging the AC power cord of the deck into a wall outlet or set the timer to continuous operation.

If TIMER is left at REC, the deck will automatically start recording the next time you turn the deck on.

If you do not change the deck to standby status for more than a week after timer recording has finished, the recorded contents may disappear.

Make sure to change the deck to standby status within a week after timer recording is completed

The TOC on the MD is updated and recorded contents are written to the MD when you turn the deck on. If the recorded contents have disappeared, “Standby” flashes when you turn the deck on.

Notes

It may take about 30 seconds after the deck is turned on until recording starts. When recording at a specified time using the timer, be sure to take this time into account when setting the recording start time.

During timer recording, new material is recorded from the end of the recorded portion on the MD.

Material recorded during timer recording will be saved to the disc the next time you turn the deck on. “TOC” will flash in the display at that time. Do not move the deck or pull out the AC power cord while “TOC” is flashing.

Timer recording will stop if the disc becomes full.
