To watch another TV programme after setting the timer
Tips
• To set the channel, you can also use the
V/v or number buttons.
• If the
indicator appears, this means that the VCR is currently recording this programme.
• You can also do the following tasks while the VCR is recording:
– Reset the counter (page 39).
– Display tape information on the TV screen (page 41).
To use the Auto Tape Speed function
In step 5 above, press
v to select “Auto”. When you are recording a programme in
the SP mode and the remaining tape length becomes shorter than the recording time,
the recording tape speed is automatically changed to the LP mode. Note that some
noise will appear on the picture when the tape speed is changed. To operate this
function correctly, the “Sélect. Cassette” setting in the “REGLAGE DE LA
FONCTION VIDEO” menu must be accurate (see page 105).
Tips
• To set the line input video source, you can also use the INPUT SELECT button.
• You can set the extended time for the ShowView setting by 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, or 60 minutes.
Set “Etendre ShowView” in the “REGLAGES UTILISATEUR” menu to the desired
extended time on page 110.
• To check, change, or cancel the programme setting, see “Checking/changing/cancelling timer

signals, the VCR will start recording at the set time without using the VPS/PDC function.
