Hints for the Timer Recording
• If there is a power failure or the unit is unplugged for
more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all
timer settings will be lost.
• If a disc is not inserted or if a inserted disc is not
recordable (finalised DVD-RW/-R, finalised DVD+R,
a fully recorded disc, etc.),
recording cannot be performed. In some cases,
will appear momentarily around the start point as the
unit attempts to record. Please insert a recordable
disc.
• When all timer recordings are complete, the
icon flashes. To play back or eject the recorded disc,
press [ ON / STANDBY], and then press
[PLAY P] or [OPEN / CLOSE O].
• You cannot make any DVD operation during DVD
timer recording.
• If the Start and End times are same, the length of
the recording will be set for 24 hours. If the disc
becomes full during recording, the unit will turn itself
off. To continue recording, press
[ ON / STANDBY] to cancel the timer-standby
mode, insert a recordable disc and press
[ ON / STANDBY] again.
• When 2 or more programmes are overlapped,
"Timer program overlapped" appears, and the
overlapped programme will be displayed in blue. To
correct the timer programme refer to "Checking,
Cancelling or Correcting the Timer Programming
Information" on page 40.

than the current time, the recording will start
immediately after you press [
