About the Demonstration Mode

The Dial Timer function has a Demonstration Mode that allows the user, such as a

salesperson, to enter more than eight examples of timer settings when demonstrating

the use of the Dial Timer. It cancels the FULL notice which appears if eight

programmes have already been set. Do not use the Demonstration Mode for making

timer recordings. Doing so may cause the settings to be inaccurate.

To activate the Demonstration Mode

Press X(pause) on the VCR while turning the PROG. “DEMO” appears in the

display window for a few seconds.

To cancel the Demonstration Mode

Turn the power off and unplug the mains lead. Although the Demonstrati on Mode is

cancelled, the timer settings entered while using the Demonstration Mode will

remain. Be sure to manually cancel the timer settings before you use the Dial Timer

or any other timer method after reconnecting the mains lead (see page 60).
