b Notes
• If a message indicating that the HDD is full

destination to “DVD,” or make available space
for the recording (page 92).
• Check that the clock is correctly set before setting
the timer recording. If not, the timer recording
cannot be made.
• To record a satellite programme, turn on the
satellite tuner and select the satellite programme
you want to record. Leave the satellite tuner
turned on until the recorder finishes recording.
• Even if the timer is set for the same daily or
weekly programme, the timer recording cannot be
made if it overlaps with a programme that has
priority. “Overlap” will appear next to the
overlapped setting in the Timer List. Check the
priority order of the settings (page 60).
• Even if the timer is set, timer recordings cannot be
made while recording a programme that has
priority.
• The beginning of some recordings may not be
made when using the VPS/PDC function.
• You cannot extend the recording duration time
when “VPS/PDC” is set to “On.”
• The “Rec. Mode Adjust” function only works
with a timer recording and the VPS/PDC function
set to off. It does not function with Quick Timer.
• The recording mode cannot be set to “AUTO”
when “VPS/PDC” is set to “On.”
The EPG function is a feature that simplifies
setting the timer. Just select the programme
you want to record in the EPG display. The
date, time, and channel of that programme are
set automatically.
