TIMER RECORDING – TIMER RECORDING HINTS
Using the
VCR before
Timer
Recording
Begins To use the VCR before timer recording begins, press POWER
on the remote once. This turns the programmed recording
light off and the VCR on. If you use POWER on the front
panel for this purpose, press it twice. Pressing it once turns
off the programmed recording light; pressing it again turns the
VCR on.
When you are finished using the VCR, turn the VCR power off
again. Make sure the programmed recording light is back on.
VCR
Memory After a program has been recorded, the VCR memory of that
program is cleared (unless you have scheduled the VCR to
record the program every day or every week.)
If there is already a program in the VCR’s memory, you will
see the Recap screen when you bring up the menus for
programming to record (unless you are programming with the
QUICK PROGRAM.) If the VCR’s memory is full,
Program
memory is full will appear on the screen. If so, you must erase
a program before you can enter a new one.
If a Tape
Runs Out or
is Not
Loaded
If a tape runs out during timer recording, the VCR ejects the
tape and the programmed recording light and the cassette
light will flash. Load a new tape and press REC. Recording
will resume.
If you forget to load a tape, the programmed recording light and
the cassette light will flash when you turn the VCR power off.
(A tape without an erasure tab will be ejected. To correct this,
load a tape with its erasure tab intact and turn off the VCR.)
Overlapping
Recording
Times Do not overlap the recording times you enter into the VCR.
If you set two programmed recording times that overlap,
VCR is already programmed for that time will appear on your
screen.
Remember that the VCR will record over the next section of
tape.
If you want to save a tape , remove it and instead use
a different tape for a new recording.
Your VCR will not record over a tape that has the erasure
prevention tab removed. All rental movies have this tab
removed, so they are safe from being accidentally erased.
