Timer Recording Troubleshooting

Even though the timer is set, the recorder will not
record when:
• There is no disc (or tape) loaded.
• A non-recordable disc (or tape) is loaded.
• Disc Protect is set to ON in the Disc menu (see page 25).
• There are already 99 titles recorded on the disc.
• When playing DVD or Tape. (The unit sets stop mode or
power off mode only).
You cannot enter a timer program when:
• A recording is already underway.
• The time you are trying to set has already passed.
• There are already 8 timer programs set.
If two or more timer programs overlap:
• The earlier program takes priority.
• When the earlier program finishes, recording of the later pro-
gram starts.
• If two programs are set to start at exactly the same time, the
program entered first takes priority.
Confirmation is not possible when:
• Disc Protect setting is set to ON.
• There are already 99 titles recorded on the disc.
If the disc is damaged, the recording may not complete
successfully. In this case even if the Check field shows
"Rec. OK", it may not be so.
