If a basic recording or One-touch Timer Recording is in progress on the VCR and the Timer Recording set for HDD or DVD is about to begin, the unit will automatically switch to the programmed channel within 15 seconds before the programmed time, and the recording in progress on the VCR will be cancelled UNLESS their recording channel is the same. If their recording channel is the same, the Timer Recording for HDD or DVD will start without cancelling the recording currently in progress on the VCR. In this case, the recording of the same channel will be made on both VCR and the HDD or DVD.

The maximum recordable duration is 7 hours for Video mode discs, 8.5 hours for VR mode discs and

5hours for +VR mode discs.

If the recording time exceeds 12 hours, a Timer Recording cannot be set.

If the starting time you entered is already in the past, the recording will start as soon as you activate the Timer Recording by pressing [ENTER] at step 4.

If playback and recording are in progress at the same time, select the appropriate device by pressing [HDD], [DVD] or [VCR] before you press [PAUSE p] or [STOP S] to pause or stop the operation.

When the Timer Recording is finished, confirmation message will appear. If there is no signal for about

1minute, unit will turn off automatically.

If DVD+RW / R were used for the Timer Programming with SLP mode, the Rec Mode will change to EP mode.

When VPS / PDC is set to “On” for timer recording, you may hear some noise from the unit while the unit is in timer standby mode. This is not a malfunction.
