• If there is a power failure or this unit has been unplugged for more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and
all timer programming will be lost.
• If a disc is not on the tray, flashes and Timer Recording cannot be performed. In some cases,
appears momentarily around the start point as the unit attempts to record. Please insert a recordable disc.
• When all the Timer Recording is completed, flashes. To play or eject the recorded disc, press
[STANDBY-ON ] first, and then press [PLAY B] or [OPEN/CLOSE A].
• During Timer Recording or timer standby mode ( is on the front display), any operations on the unit will
not be available. To make these operations available, cancel the Timer Recording or timer standby mode
first ( disappears).
• To cancel the timer standby mode, press [STANDBY-ON ].
• When the Start and the End time are the same, the length of the recording will be set for 4 hours. When
the disc reaches at the end during the recording, the unit turns itself off.
• When the programmed Start and End time are earlier than the current time, the setting will not be accepted
and be cleared for redoing.
• If the Start time is earlier and the End time is later than the current time, the recording will start right after
you turn the power off.
This unit records the programs according to priority if the timer programmings are overlapped. The timer programming
set previously has priority.
A Timer Recording of lower priority will be canceled, start from the middle or stop on the way.
Check the overlapped timer programmings and change the priority if necessary.

• If there is a power failure or this unit has been unplugged for more than 30 seconds, the clock setting and all timer settings
will be lost.
• If a recordable disc is not on the tray or an unrecordable disc is on the tray, DVD on the front panel display flashes and Timer
Recording cannot be performed. In some cases, DVD flashes momentarily around the Timer starting time as the unit attempts
to record. Please insert a recordable disc.
• If a videotape with a record tab is not in the cassette compartment or there is no videotape in the compartment, the VCR on
the front panel display flashes and timer recording cannot be performed. Please insert a recordable videotape.
• If you press [STANDBY-ON ] and turn on the unit while either DVD or VCR is in timer standby mode, disappears. In this
case, you cannot change the mode between DVD and VCR. You cannot change any settings using [SETUP] or edit discs.
• After step 9 on page 30, you can turn on the power to use the side of the unit that is free from Timer Recording (either
DVD or VCR) for another recording by pressing [STANDBY-ON ] during timer standby. During Timer Recording, press
[SOURCE] on the front panel, or [DVD] or [VCR] on the remote control. Note that you cannot change channels after Timer
Recording started. You can use all recording/recording pause/OTR functions. However, the unit will begin receiving channel
signals for Timer Recording  minutes before the programmed starting time. Unless the program that you are currently
recording using the Timer Recording free side of the unit is on the same channel with the one programmed for Timer
Recording, the unit prioritizes Timer Recording and the current recording will be automatically stopped. If the channels set for
Timer recording and the current recording are same, the current recording will continue without interruption.
• When all the Timer Recording is completed, flashes. To play or eject the recorded disc, press [STANDBY-ON ] first,
and then press [PLAY B] or [OPEN/CLOSE A].
• If both DVD and VCR are timer programmed, you cannot use any functions for either unit during timer standby or Timer
Recording. If you want to use functions other than recording under such condition, cancel Timer Recording by pressing
[TIMER SET] during timer standby or stop recording by pressing [STOP C] on the front panel during Timer Recording.
• When the starting and ending time are same, the recording will be set for 4 hours. When the disc or tape reaches the end
during the recording, the unit turns itself off. If you want to continue the recording, cancel timer standby by pressing
[TIMER SET], insert a new disc or tape, and then press [TIMER SET] again. If you are recording on a tape, the unit
automatically ejects the tape when it reaches the end. You can continue the recording by inserting a new tape.
• When the programmed starting and ending time are earlier than the current time, the setting will not be accepted and be
cleared for redoing.
• If the starting time is earlier and the ending time is later than the current time, the recording will start right after you press [TIMER SET].
• The Timer Recording cannot be performed in DVD and VCR at the same time. If you set two programming with the same
channel and time in both units, the program with a lower program number will be recorded.
