AUTO SP
]
LP TIMER
— ON /
OFF
When this function is set to “ON”, the unit automatically switches to
LP mode to allow complete recording if there is not enough tape to
record the entire programme while timer-recording in SP mode.
For Example:
Recording a programme of 140 minutes in length onto a 120-minute tape.
Make sure you set this function to “ON”, before the timer-recording starts.
NOTES:
●
If you have programmed the unit to timer-record 2 or more
programmes, the second programme and those thereafter may not fit
on the tape if you set “AUTO SP
]
LP TIMER” to “ON”. In this case,
make sure the mode is not engaged, then set the tape speed
manually during timer programming.
●
In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this feature may
leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of the tape.
●
There may be some noise and sound disturbance at the point on the
tape where the unit switches from SP to LP mode.
●
The “AUTO SP
]
LP TIMER” feature is not available during ITR
(Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work properly on
the following tapes: T(ST)-30, T(ST)-60, T(ST)-90, and T(ST)-120.

About NTSC Playback
●
Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at the top and bottom
of the TV screen. This is not a malfunction on the part of either the unit or the TV.
●
The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected using the V-
HOLD control found on some TVs. (This cannot be corrected if the
TV does not have a V-HOLD control.)
●
The counter and tape remaining time readings will be incorrect.
●
During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture will be
distorted, and there may be a loss of colour.
●
Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of
superimposed displays may be cut off during NTSC playback.
You can lock the disc tray to prohibit the unwanted disc ejection by
children.
