: Operating Your VCR
You cannot change channels while you are recording. To change chan-
nels, press PAUSE/STILL or STOP/EJECT to interrupt your recording.
If the tape reaches its end while recording, it will quit recording and eject
the tape.
One Touch Recording (OTR)
One Touch Recording allows you to begin recording a channel, and also
set how long how wish to record. The TV/VCR will automatically stop
recording after the time you set has elapsed. To use OTR:
1.
Follow steps 1-3 in “Basic Recording,” on the previous page, to begin
recording.
2.
Repeatedly press the REC/OTR button. Each time you press the
REC/OTR button, 30 minutes is added to the OTR time, up to 4
hours.
3.
When you have reached the length of time that you want the TV to
record, stop pressing the OTR button. The TV/VCR will count down
the time you set. When the timer reaches 00:00, recording will stop.
4.
You can stop recording at any time by pressing STOP button.
If you press the POWER button during OTR, the picture will turn off,
but the tape will still record for the remainder of the OTR time. To stop
recording, press STOP/EJECT.
To return to normal recording and cancel the OTR Time, press the
REC/OTR button repeatedly until “4:00” is displayed, then press the
REC/OTR button once more to return to normal recording.
If you program too much time into the OTR timer, continue to press the
REC/OTR button. Once the time reaches “4:00,” press the REC/OTR
button twice more to return to “0:30.”
You can not set an OTR time if the TV/VCR is recording a timer pro-
gram.
