comes, the REC Timer does not work.
Turning the REC (Recording) Timer On and Off
Once you have set the REC Timer to record a source, the timer set-
ting is stored in memory. So, though the REC Timer turns off once
it is used, you can recall it at any time.
To cancel the REC Timer temporarily:

Press the CLOCK/TIMER button on the Unit
repeatedly until “REC” appears on the dis-
play.
2
Press the CANCEL button on the Unit.
“OFF” appears and both the Timer indicator (
) and the
“REC” indicator go out.
To activate the cancelled REC Timer:
1
Press the CLOCK/TIMER button on the Unit
repeatedly until “REC” appears on the dis-
play.
The Timer indicator (
) lights and the “REC” indicator
blinks on the display.
2
Press the SET button on the Unit.
“ON” appears on the display. The Timer indicator (
) and
the “REC” indicator remain lit, and the display returns to the
original display.

If the System is unplugged, or a power failure occurs, the
timer setting will be lost in a few days. You will need to
reset the clock first, then the timer.
