40 One-Touch Recording
1
Insert a recordable DVD+RW or DVD+R into the
Recorder.
2
In the Index Picture Screen of a DVD+RW, press
89
to
select an Empty Title (or empty Index Picture box) on the Disc
that has enough time for the recording. Or, select the place at
which you want to start the new recording in order to overwrite
other recordings. Details are on page 35.
You may skip this step if you use Safe Record. See step 5.
Or, if you are using a DVD+R, you may skip this step. Recordings
on a DVD+R are made at the end of the Disc automatically.
Previous recordings are not overwritten.
3
Press MONITOR to see TV channels through the DVD Recorder.
Make sure you have programmed channels. Details are on page 36.
4
Press CH+, CH-, or the Number buttons to select the chan-
nel you wish to record.
If you are using a Cable Box/Satellite Receiver that has a single RF
Out/TV Out/Antenna Out/75 ohm jack, set the DVD Recorder to
channel 3 or 4 in Monitor mode. (Choose the output channel of
your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver.)
If your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver has Audio/Video Out jacks, set the
Recorder to an EXT channel. Choose the EXT channel that corre-
sponds to the jacks you used on the rear of the DVD Recorder (the
jacks to which you connected the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver).
Then, change TV channels at the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver.
You cannot change channels during recording. You can only record
the channel you are watching. You cannot record one channel while
watching a different TV channel.
5
Press REC/OTR twice to start a 30-minute recording. Press
REC/OTR repeatedly to record longer timed recordings, up
to four hours long in thirty-minute increments. The length of
recording available depends on the current recording mode/speed
and the amount of time available on the Disc. Recording mode/speed
details are on page 46. Recording will begin about 30 seconds after
you press REC/OTR. (The Disc takes this time to prepare for
recording.)
Or, use Safe Record to have the DVD Recorder automatically
find the empty space at the end of a DVD+RW; this prevents over-
writing other recordings. To do so, press and hold REC/OTR for
about two seconds, or until SAFE RECORD appears on the
Recorder’s display panel. Then, press REC/OTR repeatedly to
choose the time length you want for your recording.
If you press REC/OTR only once, or press and hold REC/OTR one
time and immediately start Safe Record, the Recorder will record
the current channel or source until the end of the Disc is reached.
The Recorder will turn off automatically.
