The One-Touch Recording (OTR) feature allows you to set an
immediate timed recording 30 minutes to eight hours long. Before
you begin:
●
Set up the channels at the VCR. Details are on page 12.
●
Select a recording speed (SP, SLP) with the SPEED button.
●
Put a tape in the VCR. Make sure the tape’s record tab is intact
and the tape is long enough to record the program(s). If the end
of a tape is reached during an OTR, the VCR will eject the tape
and turn itself off.
●
Place the VCR in VCR position. (The VCR light will appear on
the display panel. If it does not, press the VCR/TV button once.)

To cancel the OTR but continue recording, press the
REC(ord)/OTR button repeatedly until REC appears in the upper
left corner of the TV screen. (STATUS must be set to ON. See
page 22 for details.) The REC(ord) light will remain on the display
panel of the VCR, but the Timer light will disappear.
• To check the time remaining for an
OTR after the OTR has been set, press
the STATUS/EXIT button.
• To change the recording length while
an OTR is in progress, press the
REC(ord)/OTR button until the desired
length appears on the screen.
• If you begin an OTR when another
recording is paused, the OTR will begin.
• You can not pause an OTR.
• If the preset time for a timer recording
comes up during an OTR, the OTR has
priority. A message will remind you
when the timer recording was sched-
uled to begin. You may let the OTR
continue; the timer recording will not
take place. Or, stop the OTR and turn
off the VCR immediately. The timer
recording will take place if you turn off
the VCR before the timer recording’s
scheduled start time.
• When the OTR finishes, the VCR shuts
itself off.
