Timer Recording
The information on this page tells you how to set up your
VCR for Timer Recording
after you have programmed
the
timer. (The programming
instructions
are on pages 28-29.)
When you have finished
programming
the timer, follow
the steps in the drawing
to prepare
for timer recording.
We suggest
that
you
make
one or more
short
timer
recordings
for practice
so you won't
be disappointed
later
on.
If you have a Daily or Weekly program
in the VCR timer,
you should
check
the steps in the drawing
sometime
before the recording
time to be sure that your VCR is
ready to record.

Reminders
• The timer light will flash when you turn off the VCR if
you have programmed the timer but forgotten
to insert
a cassette.
• if the cassette in the VCR has its safety tab removed
(page
20),
the
VCR
will
eject
it after
you
have
programmed
the timer and turned off the VCR. This is
to remind
you to insert
a new cassette or cover the
safety tab.
• If the TV program
to be recorded
is in stereo, turn off
the MONO light before you turn off the VCR in Step O
above. If you want to record the Second Audio Program
(SAP), turn on the B SET light.
TV Viewing During a Timer Recording
When the VCR turns on automatically
to make a timer
recording, it does not disturb whatever program you may
be watching at the time. Press the VCR/TVswitch
to turn
on the VCR light if you want to monitor the recording.
Stopping a Timer Recording While In Progress
Press POWER and then press STOP within
10 seconds.
(Press POWER once more to turn off the VCR). This
erases a Normal program from the timer's memory, but a
Daily
or
Weekly
program
will record
on the
next
scheduled day.
