Recording TV programmes using the Dial
Timer
The Dial Timer function allows you to
make timer recordings of programmes
without turning on your TV. Set the
recording timer to record up to eight
programmes, including settings made
with other timer methods, that will be
broadcast within the next month. The
recording start time and recording stop
time can be set at one minute intervals.
Before you start...
• Insert a tape with its safety tab in place. Make sure the tape is longer than the total recording
time.
• To record from a decoder, turn it on.
• Refer to “Index to parts and controls” for button locations.
