Notes

•If “The disc is full or nearly full” appears on the screen, change the disc, or make available space for the recording (DVD+RW/DVD-RW only) (page 64).

•To record a cable or satellite program without using cable box/satellite box control, turn on the cable box or satellite receiver and select the program you want to record. Leave the cable box or satellite receiver turned on until the recorder finishes recording.

•Even if the timer is set for the same daily or weekly

program, the timer recording cannot be made if it

overlaps with a program that has priority. The mark will appear next to the overlapped setting in the Timer

List. Check the priority order of the settings (page 44).

•Even if the timer is set, timer recordings cannot be made while recording a program that has priority.

•The Rec Mode Adjust function only works with a timer recording. It does not function with Quick Timer (page 47).

Recording TV programs using the VCR Plus+ system

The VCR Plus+ system is a feature that simplifies setting the timer. Just enter the PlusCode number listed in the TV program guide. The date, time, and channel of that program are set automatically. Before you start, check that the TV and guide channels are correctly set in “Set VCR Plus+ Channels” in “Settings” (page 71).
