Notes

“TIMER” flashes in the display window if you press TIMER REC ON/OFF with no tape inserted.

You can only timer record TV programs from the unit’s VCR tuner, or LINE input sources.

If VCR Plus+ is not available in your area, follow the instructions below to set the timer to record programs.

Before you start…

Check that the unit’s clock is set to the correct time.

Insert a tape with its safety tab in place. Make sure the tape is longer than the total recording time.

Press VHS TUNER.

If the TV doesn’t turn on or the LINE 1 is not selected on the TV, turn it on manually.

If connected with only the antenna cable, set the TV to the video channel.

When using a cable box, turn it on.
