NOTES:
●
The Auto SP/LP Timer feature is not available during ITR
(Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will not work
properly with any tapes longer than E-180 as well as some
tapes of shorter lenghs.
●
Even if, in step 1, you press AUTO SP/LP TIMER and the
AUTO SP/LP TIMER indicator lights up, that doesn’t mean that
the recorder will automatically change from SP to LP (or EP)
mode during the course of the recording. Watch the tape later
to confirm.
●
If you have programmed the recorder to timer-record 2 or
more programs, the second programme and those thereafter
may not fit on the tape if you engage the Auto SP/LP Timer
mode. In this case, make sure the mode is not engaged, then
set the tape speed manually during timer programming.
●
There may be some noise at the point on the tape where the
recorder switches from SP to LP (or EP) mode.
