Setting the timer
manually
If VCR Plus+ and GUIDE Plus+ are not
available in your area, follow the
instructions below to set the timer to
record programs. You can manually
preset up to eight programs at one time
not including those of VCR Plus+ and
GUIDE Plus+ recording.
Before you start…
• Check that the VCR clock is set to the
correct time.
• Turn on your TV and set it to the
video channel. 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.
• If you insert a tape with the SmartFile
function, make sure the total recording
time doesn’t overlap any protected
programs. For details about the
SmartFile function, see pages 52
through 53.
