the entire program, the VCR automatically switches to EP mode to
allow complete recording. This feature is especially handy when
recording a program of more than 2 hours in length.
For Example . . .
Recording a program of 140 minutes in length onto a 120-
minute tape
Make sure you set "AUTO SP
→
EP TIMER" to “ON” at the
Function screen before the timer recording starts.

NOTES:
●
If you have programmed the VCR to timer-record 2 or more
programs, the second program and those thereafter may not fit
on the tape if you set the Auto SP
→
EP Timer mode to "ON". In
this case, make sure the mode is not engaged, then set the
tape speed manually during timer programming.
●
In order to ensure that the recording fits on the tape, this
feature may leave a slight non-recorded section at the end of
the tape.
●
There may be some noise at the point on the tape where the
VCR switches from SP to EP mode.
●
The Auto SP
→
EP Timer feature is not available during ITR
(Instant Timer Recording), and the feature will work with the
following tapes: T(ST)-30, T(ST)-60, T(ST)-90, and T(ST)-120.
NOTE:
For safety, when AUTO TIMER is set to “OFF”, all other VCR
functions are disabled while the Timer mode is engaged. To
disengage the timer, press
