Notes– In order for a timer recording to work:
• The VCR's clock must be set correctly.
• Insert a tape with its safety tab in place and enough tape to record
the program.
• If you've set up the VCR for a cable box for all channels, the output of
your cable box appears in the channel item of the Timer Recording
menu.
• PROGRAMS OVERLAP appears if two programs whose times overlap
are entered.
• TIMER appears in the display when you turn off the VCR and a timer
recording has been set. TIMER flashes if there is no tape in the VCR
when a timer recording has been set and the unit is turned off.
• For a cable box or satellite receiver, turn it on and tune it to the
channel you want to record before the recording is to begin.
The data includes the channel number (press INPUT to select the Video Line
Input if using A/V jacks to connect the VCR to the TV), and start and end
times (including AM or PM). The start date is automatically entered based on
the VCR clock. Both the recording date and speed can be changed.
