Tips for Timer Recording

•If there is a power failure or the DVD/VCR has been unplugged for more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all timer settings will be lost.

•If a tape is not in the DVD/VCR or does not have the record tab, the light flashes and timer recording cannot be performed. Please

insert a recordable tape.

• If a tape ends during timer recording, the VCR will stop, eject the tape, and switch to the DVD mode automatically as the light flashes. (If the DVD power is off, the VCR will become STANDBY status).
