Timer Recording
Up to 8 timer recording programs can be made using VCR Plus+
timer programing, Express timer programing or 24HR Quick
Programing method as far as a year in advance. Remember, the
clock must be set before you can program the timer.
● Turn on the VCR and TV, and select the VCR channel (or AV
mode).
● Set the VCR/TV/CABLE/DBS selector on the Remote to
“VCR”.
NOTES:
● If all the 8 programs have already been set, “PROGRAM FULL”
or “Full” appears on the TV screen or the display panel.
● After timer recording is completed, the VCR turns off
automatically.
● You can program the timer recording while a regular recording
is in progress; the menu screens will not be recorded.
● To timer-record cable or satellite channels, perform “Cable Box
and/or DBS Receiver Control Setting” (
pg. 8) and be sure to
keep the cable box or DBS receiver turned on.
● Even if a power failure occurs, the VCR keeps your timer
programs. However, the clock time, channel settings, and other
menu settings are lost. As a result, when the power is supplied
again to this VCR after the power failure, this VCR starts the
Plug&Play setting automatically to restore the clock time and
channel setting. If the clock time and channel setting are
restored correctly, each timer program you have made will start
at its start time unless its end time has elapsed.
● If the tape reaches its end during timer recording, the recording
stops and “
” and “[“ on the display panel blink. Press
#
TIMER (#) to disengage timer, then press STOP/EJECT (0)
on the VCR to eject the cassette or press POWER then press
REW (3) on the Remote or turn the ADVANCED JOG dial to
the left on the VCR to rewind the tape.
● If “MEMORY FULL” appears on the TV screen when you finish a
program setting, the VCR’s memory for the Video Navigation
function is full. This is not related to actual recording, but the
program information will not be stored in the VCR’s memory.

Changing VCR Plus+
Setting

The VCR Plus+ programing system assigns a VCR Plus+ guide
channel to the TV channels and the cable channels. These guide
channel numbers are also called the VCR Plus+ channel codes.
