Timer Recording Hints
To use the VCR before timer recording begins, press POWER on the remote
once. This turns the programmed recording light off and the VCR on.
If you use POWER on the front panel for this purpose, press it twice. Pressing
it once turns off the programmed recording light; pressing it again turns the
VCR on.
When you are finished using the VCR, turn the VCR power off again. Make sure
the programmed recording light is back on.
After a program has been recorded, the VCR memory of that program is
cleared (unless you have scheduled the VCR to record the program every day
or every week).
If there is already a program in the VCR’s memory, you will see the Recap
screen when you bring up the menus for programming to record. If the VCR’s
memory is full, Program memory is full will appear on the screen. If so, you
must erase a program before you can enter a new one.
If a tape runs out during timer recording, the VCR ejects the tape and the
programmed recording light and the tape status symbol will flash. Load a new
tape and press REC. Recording will resume.
If you forget to load a tape, the programmed recording light and the tape status
symbol will flash when you turn the VCR power off. (A tape without an erasure
tab will be ejected. To correct this, load a tape with its erasure tab intact, and
turn off the VCR.)
Do not overlap the recording times you enter into the VCR. If you set two
programmed recording times overlap, VCR is already programmed for that time
will appear on your screen.
Remember that the VCR will record over the next section of tape. If you want
to save a tape, remove it and instead use a different tape for a new recording.
Your VCR will not record over a tape that has the erasure prevention tab
removed. All rental movies have this tab removed, so they are safe from being
accidentally erased.
Auto speed programming
Use auto speed programming if you want to record as much of the program as
possible in standard play (SP) speed, but you want the VCR to automatically
switch to extended play (EP) if there is not enough tape left.
Auto speed programming is Å@or one program. In the first slot, the recording
speed default is AUTO.
Make sure that the Tape video function matches the length of tape you are
using. See Selecting and adjusting the audio and video functions on
page 26.
At the point where the recording mode changes from standard play (SP) to
extended play (EP), some noise may be in the picture or sound when playing the
tape.
