OTR(2 : 30)

OTR (One Touch Recording)

TV/VCR

This function enables you to set a recording length simply by pressing the REC/OTR button on the unit.

Make sure ...

The unit is turned on.

Insert a cassette tape with its erase prevention tab in place. (If necessary, rewind or fast forward the tape to the point at which you want to begin recording.)

NOTES:

You cannot start OTR with the remote control.

Recording starts immediately when the REC/OTR button is pressed.

When the REC/OTR button is pressed 18 times, the unit returns to the Normal Recording mode.

To stop the OTR operation, press the STOP button on the unit or on the remote control.

To show the remaining time, press the DISPLAY button on the remote control so that “OTR” appears on the TV screen. (It will show up momentarily then disappear.)

Recording stops when 0:00 is reached.

Please note that in the SLP mode maximum record- ing time, assuming the tape is started at the begin- ning, is 8 hours using T-160 (or 6 hours using T-120).

If the tape runs out before the end time, the unit will switch to the Stop mode immediately, ejects the tape and turns itself off.

If you press the POWER button during OTR, the unit continues recording until the selected length is reached.

Press the SPEED button to select the desired tape speed (SP/ SLP).

3Begin OTR
