If there is insufficient tape to complete a timer
recording in AUTO mode, the VCR automatically
switches to LP mode to record the whole
programme.
E.g. If there is a one hour AUTO mode timer
recording to be started, but only 40 minutes of
tape remaining, the VCR will record in SP for
20 minutes and switch to LP mode for the
remaining 40 minutes.
