Notes
• Some TVs or other equipment automatically turn off in a certain time if you do not
operate it after it turns on with the timer. In this case the Synchronised Recording
also stops automatically.
• The Synchronised Recording starts and stops according to the signals from the
connected equipment. Refer also to the instruction manual of the connected
equipment for its timer function.
• Some equipment keeps transmitting signals even though the power is off. In this
case, the Synchronised Recording feature does not work because the VCR will not
be able to know when to start recording.
• You can record tapes only in SP mode.
