To Select The Recording Duration And Perform Timer Recording (Otr Recording) - Panasonic NV-FJ762EE Operating Instructions Manual

To Prevent Accidental Erasure of Recorded
Contents
When you record again onto a previously
recorded video cassette, the previous
recording is automatically erased and
replaced with the new recording.
Therefore, to prevent accidental
erasure of the recorded contents,
break out the erasure prevention
tab after recording.
Use a screwdriver or similar tool to break out the tab.
To Record Again onto the Video Cassette with a Broken
Out Erasure Prevention Tab:
If you insert a video cassette with a
broken out erasure prevention tab and
press the REC button , the "1"
indication flashes on the VCR display to
indicate that recording is not possible.
In this case, cover the tab hole with two
layers of adhesive tape.
The adhesive tape substitutes for the prevention erasure tab
and makes it possible to record again on this cassette.
To Select the Recording Duration
and Perform Timer Recording
(OTR Recording)
OTR means One-Touch Recording and is called this way,
because you can start recording and select the recording
duration by repeatedly pressing a single button. This is very
convenient, for example when you want to start recording
immediately but need to go out or want to go to bed.
After the selected recording duration has elapsed, recording
stops and the VCR automatically switches off.
To Perform an OTR Recording:
1 Display the VCR picture on the TV.

tab.

To Manually Adjust the Audio Recording
Level
This VCR adjusts the recording level automatically to prevent
sound distortion due to excessive peaks.
However, if you want to manually adjust the audio recording
level, perform the operation steps below before you start the
actual recording. We recommend you to adjust the level so
that it peaks at approximately r4 dB on the recording level
indicator.
