Hints For Timer Recording - Sylvania H2160SL9 Owner's Manual

Hints for Timer Recording

• If there is a power failure or this unit has been
unplugged for more than 30 seconds, the clock setting
and all timer programming will be lost.
• When recording to a DVD, if a disc is not inserted, the
unit will perform the alternate recording to the HDD
(refer to page 50).
• When a timer recording is completed, the unit will ask
you whether to turn off the unit if there is no timer
recording which starts within 5 minutes, except under
conditions listed below.
- During playback of HDD or DVD.
- While displaying menus or information on the screen.
• The unit will be turned off automatically if you select
"Yes" or if you do not reply in 1 minute.
• When the programmed starting and ending time are
earlier than the current time, the setting will not be
accepted and be cleared for redoing.
• If the starting time is earlier and the ending time is later
than the current time, the recording will start right after
you press [ENTER] at step 8 on page 50.
The Priority of Overlapped Settings
• Timer program which has the earlier start time will be placed first in the timer program list, and be given priority over
the programs with the later start time when timer programs overlap.
• When timer programs overlap, the first 2 minutes (at the longest) of the later recording will be cut off.
• When 2 or more timer programs have the same start time, the program set first will be given priority.
• A timer recording of lower priority will be canceled or start from the middle.
• Check the overlapped timer programmings and change the priority if necessary.
When the starting time is the same:
A program set previously (PROG. A) has priority.

Note for DVD recording

program is the same, the first 2 minutes (at the longest) of
the subsequent program will be cut off.
• If the cut-off portion comes up to 3 minutes or more, this
