Hints for timer recording

•
If there is a power failure or this unit has been unplugged for more than 30seconds, the clock setting and all timer settings will be lost.
• If a disc is not on the tray,the DVD indicator on the front panel flashes and timer recording cannot be performed.
Please insert a recordable disc.
• If a tape with a record tab is not in the cassette compartment,the VCR indicator on the front panel flashes and timer
recording cannot be performed.Please insert a recordable tape.
• When all the timer recording is completed,the indicator flashes.To play or eject the recorded disc (or the tape),
press POWER button first and then press PLAY Bor OPEN/CLOSE A(or STOP/EJECT CA) button.
• Important The timer recording can not be performed in DVD and VCR at the same time.
If you set two programmings with the same channel and time both in DVD and VCR, the programming
that has priority will be recorded (see below for details).
•
During timer recording or timer standby ( indicator is on the front display), any operations on the unit will not be
available.To make these operations available,cancel the timer recording or timer standby first ( indicator disappears).
• To cancel the timer standby mode,press POWER button.
• When the Start and the End time are the same,the length of the recording will be set for 24 hours.When the disc
reaches at the end during the recording,the unit turns itself off.
• When the programmed Start and End time are earlier than the current time,the recording will be set on the same
date in the next year.
•
If your programmed Start time for DVDrecording is within 2 minutes from the current time, the power will turn on for recording
standby right after you turn the power off.For a videotape recording, the power will turn on shortly before the Start time.
• If a videotape ends during timer recording,the unit will stop, eject the videotape, and turn itself off.
• When two or more programmings are overlapped,“Overlap” will be displayed.
This unit records the programs according to priority if timer programmings are overlapping.The timer programming set
first has priority.
A timer recording of lower priority will be canceled,start from the middle or stop on the way.
Check the overlapping timer programmings and change the priority if necessary.
