Timer recording

1.After turning on the power to each component, select the station on your tuner which you want to record and turn down the volume on your amplifier/receiver. This will have no effect on the recording signal level.

Remember to set the proper recording level.

2.Set the timer to the desired recording start and stop times. It is advisable to set the timer to begin recording slightly before and end slightly after the actual broadcast receiving time to leave some room for later editing.

3.Set the TIMER switch to the REC position.

5.At the preset time, the timer will turn power on to the amplifier/receiver and cassette deck and begin playback. It will shut power off at the preset time as well ending playback.

Note: Whenever the timer recording/playback is not intended, make sure to set the TIMER switch to OFF position to prevent the unnecessary recording/playback.

÷If the TIMER switch is set to REC position and the power is supplied (plugging in the power cord or automatically supplying the power after power failure, etc.), the deck automatically enters Rec mode and the contents of the cassette tape inserted in the deck will be erased.
