Recording TV programs using the Dial
Timer
The Dial Timer function allows you to make
timer recordings of programs without turning on
your TV. Set the recording timer to record up to
eight programs that will be broadcast within a
month using the DIAL TIMER. The recording
start time and recording stop time can be set at
one minute intervals.
Before you start...
• When using a cable box, turn it on.
• Insert a tape with its safety tab in place. Make sure the tape is longer than the total recording
time.

“DATE” and “TODAY” appear alternately in the display window.
If the date and time are not set, “MONTH” will appear. See step 2 in the
following section “To set the clock” to set the date and time.
