• Dubbing will start where the tape is stopped.

stabilised, then set the starting point at which you want to
start recording, and start dubbing.
• Dubbing will be cancelled 2 minutes before starting timer
recording.
• The device mode change is available only between HDD
and DVD during the videotape to the HDD / DVD dubbing.
