E>Important:
If a tape runs out during
programmed
recording,
the VCR ejects
the tape and the programmed
recording
light and the tape status
symbol will flash. Load a new tape and press the REC button.
The
VCR will resume
recording.
Do not overlap
the recording
times
you program.
Remember
that when your VCR is off, it may also be in stand-by
for programmed
recording.
A] so remember
that the VCR, when
programmed,
will record over the next section of tape. So, to avoid
recording
over tapes you want to save, remernber
that the VCR
automatically
shuts off durin:g OTR recording
and auto power
saving.
Your VCR will not record over a tape that has the erasure
preven-
tion tab removed
(see "Preventing
accidental
erasure").
All rental
movies have this tab removed,
so they are sal'e from being acci-
dentally
erased.
autospeedprogramming
Use auto speed programming
if you want to record as much of the
program
as possible
in standard
play (SP) speed, but you want
the VCR to automatically
switch to extended
play (EP) if there is
not enough
tape left.
Auto speed programming
is only available
in one programming
slot. In the first, slot, the recording
speed is automatically
set to
AUTO. If you want to use auto speed prograrlming
in this pro-
gramming
slot, you don't need to change
anything.
Make sure that the "Tape" video function
ma Lches the kind of
tape you are using. (See "Selecting
and adjus Ling the audio and
video functions"
on page 30.)
Set the time for recording
to end a minute
or two beyond
the
program's
scheduled
broadcast
time.
