RECORDING
Recording Features
There are three methods for recording programs:
• Recording lets you press one button to start recording a
program. (See VCR Basics section.)
• Express Recording lets you start recording a program you
are watching, and then set the VCR to automatically stop
recording after a designated period of time.
• Timer Recording lets you program the VCR to
automatically start and stop recording at a predetermined
time.
Express Recording
Use express recording when you want to quickly record the
remaining portion of the program you are watching.
1. Press the SPEED button on the remote if you want to
override the preferred Tape Speed setting.
2. Press the RECORD button to begin recording.
3. Repeatedly press the RECORD button to set up the recording
duration.

Each press of the RECORD button increases the recording time
(up to 4 hours).
The VCR continues to record for the amount of time you
indicate, and then automatically turns off.
To stop an express recording, press and hold the STOP button
on the remote (STOP•EJECT button on the VCR) for a few
seconds, or press STOP (STOP•EJECT) three times within 5
seconds.
Express Recording
Express recording is a great way to
tape the last quarter of the game, or
the last part of a movie when you
have to leave.
