The icon will appear on the front panel display and the unit enters to the timer-standby mode.

Note

If you have not set the clock, the clock setting window will appear instead of the Timer Programming list. Continue from step 4 in “Manual Clock Setting” on page 25 before programming the timer.

Use [L / P] to move the cursor to the left and the right in the entry screen for the timer programming.

If a basic recording or One-touch Timer Recording is in progress on one component (e.g. VCR) and the timer recording set for the other component (e.g. DVD) is about to begin, the unit automatically switches to the programmed channel for timer recording 2 minutes before the programmed starting time, and the recording in progress (for VCR) will be cancelled UNLESS their recording channels are the same. If their recording channels are the same, the timer recording will start without cancelling the recording currently in progress. In this case, the recording of the same channel will be made on both DVD and VCR.
