Tips

Even if you set TIMER METHOD to VIDEOPLUS in the USER SET menu, you can set the timer manually. Press MENU to select TIMER PROGRAMMING, then go to step 2.

To check, change, or cancel the programme setting, see “Checking/changing/ cancelling timer settings” (page 41).

To set the tape speed, you can also use the SP/LP button.

Notes

When setting the timer with VPS/PDC signals, enter the start and stop times exactly as indicated in the TV programme guide. Otherwise, the VPS/PDC function won’t work.

If the VPS/PDC signal is too weak or the broadcasting station failed to transmit VPS/PDC signals, the VCR will start recording at the set time without using the VPS/PDC function.

The and indicators flash in the display window when you press ?/1 with no tape inserted.
