Instant Timer Recording (ITR)
Use ITR to quickly record the remaining portion of a program being watched. ITR is a great way to
capture the end of a sporting event that has run into overtime or a live broadcast that runs long. ITR
works in 30-minute increments. You can capture the last 30, 60, 90, etc. minutes of programming
(depending on tape length), up to 9 hours total.
To Activate ITR:
1. Turn on the DVD/VCR and tune it to the channel with the desired programming.
2. Insert a tape with its safety tab in place into the DVD/VCR. Make sure it is cued to record at the
proper starting point.
Note: To override the preferred tape speed setting, press the SPEED button on the remote control repeatedly to
toggle between SP and SLP choices.
3. Press
the
RECORD to start recording.
4. Repeatedly press RECORD to set up the recording duration.
• Press RECORD until
Instant Timer Record 0H30M
appears.
• Each time you press the RECORD button, 30 minutes is added.
• The DVD/VCR automatically turns off after it has recorded the set amount of time.
• To stop an ITR recording, press STOP.
