2.5.3Using the timer

When the start time has been set, slide the TIMER switch C to either the PLAY or REC position, depending on whether playback or recording is to start at the specified time.

The display shows a small clock icon to show the unit is in timer mode, in standby mode as well as in power-on mode. When the switch is set to REC, and a recordable disc is loaded, the REC indicator shows beside the clock icon.

When the unit is in standby mode and timer playback is selected, the unit will turn on and start playing at the specified time.

If recording is selected, the unit will turn itself on one minute before recording is due to start. Record- ing will start at the specified time at the first free location on the disc.

If the off time is set to a time greater than the length of the disc, and playback is selected, the unit will start playing at the start of the disc, and continue to the end.

If timer recording is selected, and the off time is set to a time which is greater than the remaining time on the disc, the unit will continue recording until there is no space left on the disc.

If the timer is set, and the unit is switched on at the timer start time, the timer operation will have no effect.

If the unit has been disconnected from the power supply so that the clock time has been lost, and the timer switch is set, the clock icon will flash rapidly in standby mode as an indication that the current timer setting is invalid.

NOTE

If the unit has recognized the current disc as non- recordable, Timer Error! appears when the timer switch is set to REC. If the timer is set with the switch at OFF or PLAY and a non-recordable disc loaded, the unit is then placed in standby, and the switch then set to the REC position, this error mes- sage will not appear (of course, recording will not take place under these conditions).
