Other Timer Recordings and Convenient Functions
Setting the Recording Date/Day(s)
Perform this operation in operation step 3 when programming a timer recording with the On Screen Display, or in operation step 4 when programming with the ShowView number. (See pages 13 and 14.) You can select the recording date (day of the month/day of the week) by pressing the DATE button ;. If you repeatedly press the i side of the DATE button ;, the indication changes in the order shown below. If you press the F side of the DATE button ;, the indication changes in the opposite order. Programming a timer recording (setting the date) is possible up to one month ahead of the TV programmes broadcasting date and time. Daily and weekly timer recordings will continue until you cancel them.
<To Programme within 1 Month> Example: 1 2.. 31 <To Programme a Daily Timer Recording> Example: Daily recording from Sunday to Saturday (Su-Sa). Daily recording from Monday to Saturday (Mo-Sa). Daily recording from Monday to Friday (Mo-Fr). <To Programme a Weekly Timer Recording > Example: Weekly recording every Sunday Weekly recording every Monday Weekly recording every Saturday (Su = Sunday, Mo = Monday, Tu = Tuesday, We = Wednesday, Th = Thursday, Fr = Friday, Sa = Saturday)
Condition for correct operation of the Auto SP/LP Change function: The tape length of the inserted cassette must be set correctly. (See page 26.) To Activate the Auto SP/LP Change Function: In operation step 6 when programming a timer recording with the On Screen Display (see page 13), or in operation step 4 when programming with the ShowView number (see page 14), press the SP/LP button D to select A.

Indication when A is selected
Setting for Control of the Recording Starting and Ending Time by Special Signal Included in the Broadcasting Signal (VPS/PDC Function)
VPS stands for Video Programme System. PDC stands for Programme Delivery Control. If a TV programme, for example a football game runs longer than scheduled, is shortened or starts earlier or later, this function synchronises the recording start and stop with the actual broadcasting start and stop of the TV programme. Conditions for correct operation of the VPS/PDC function: ON must be displayed under VPS/PDC on the On Screen Display. The TV station must broadcast VPS/PDC signals. The programme starting time must be set correctly to the starting time listed in the newspaper/magazine.

If, at the start of a timer recording, the VCR determines that the remaining tape time is insufficient to record the whole programme, the Auto SP/LP Change function automatically selects LP mode to ensure that the whole programme will be recorded. However, if the remaining tape time is still not sufficient even in the LP mode, the programme cannot be recorded to its end. If you programme a daily or weekly timer recording, recording will be performed in the LP mode from the start regardless of the remaining tape time. In case of a timer recording programmed with the VPS/ PDC function, if the TV programme continues past the programmed ending time, the VCR automatically switches over to the LP mode at that moment. However, in some cases it may not be possible to record the programme until its end. Use a video cassette on which a few minutes more than the total length of programmed timer recordings remain, otherwise the programmed timer recordings may be performed in the LP mode. Be careful that the broadcast times of the TV programmes set for timer recording do not overlap, otherwise the programmed timer recordings may be performed in the LP mode. If the recording speed changes from SP to LP during a timer recording, some brief picture distortion occurs at that point.

To Search for a Desired Programme While Checking the Recorded Contents on a Cassette (Intro-Jet Scan)
This VCR automatically records special index signals on the tape every time a recording starts. The Intro-Jet Scan function makes use of these index signals to play back the beginning of each programme recorded on the cassette one after another at high speed. This lets you quickly and easily check the contents of a cassette and find a desired programme. Index signals are automatically recorded in the following cases: When you start a recording by pressing the REC button I, or REC/OTR button ^. When a timer recording starts. When you press the REC button I on the remote control during recording. Conditions for correct operation of the Intro-Jet Scan function: The cassette must have been ejected after the timer recordings were performed. VCR must be switched on, be in the playback mode or be in the standby mode. Each programme recorded on the tape must be at least 15 minutes long. Preparations Display the VCR picture on the TV. Insert a recorded video cassette. Operations 1 Press the SEARCH button L to start the Intro-Jet Scan. After rewinding the tape to the beginning, the VCR plays it back at high speed for approximately 10 seconds. It then fast-forwards the tape to the next tape position marked by an index signal (beginning of a programme), and every time an index signal is found, the VCR switches over to high-speed playback (Cue) for about 10 seconds.

Cautions

Be sure to read the cautions carefully before you operate this VCR. Avoid sudden changes in temperature If the VCR is moved suddenly from a cold to a warm place, condensation may form on the tape surface and inside the VCR. If this happens, leave the VCR at room temperature for at least 1 hour before operating it. Avoid humidity and dust Do not use the VCR in very humid or dusty places. This may cause damage to its internal parts. Do not cover the ventilation holes The ventilation holes prevents excessive heat build-up inside the VCR during extended periods of use. Do not block these holes; especially avoid covering them with soft materials such as paper or cloth. Keep the VCR away from high temperatures Keep the VCR away from extreme heat such as direct sunlight, heating radiators, or closed automobiles. Avoid magnets or magnetized objects Never bring a magnet or magnetized object close to the VCR because this could adversely affect the performance of the VCR. When using the VCR together with other equipment, keep as much distance as possible between them to prevent them from adversely affecting each others performance. No fingers or other objects inside Touching internal parts of the VCR is dangerous, and may seriously damage it. Do not attempt to disassemble the VCR. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Keep water away Keep the VCR away from flower vases, tubs, sinks, etc. Caution: If water or some other liquid is spilled into the VCR, serious damage could occur. If you spill any liquid into the VCR, consult qualified service personnel. Lightning To avoid damage by lightning, disconnect the aerial plug from the VCR during lightning storms. Cleaning the VCR Condensation may form in the following cases: If the VCR is in a room that was very cold before the heater has just been turned on. If the VCR is in a room with steam or high humidity. If the VCR is brought from cold surroundings into a wellheated room. The VCR is suddenly brought from cool surroundings, such as an air-conditioned room or car, to a place which is hot and humid. Note: In any of the above-mentioned conditions, do not operate the VCR for at least 1 hour. This VCR is not equipped with a dew sensor. Video head clogging The video heads record the picture signals on the tape during recording and read picture signals from the tape during playback. They are, therefore, of critical importance for the picture quality. If the VCR is used for a very long time, these heads may become dirty and clogged with dust and fine particles from the tape coating. In such a case, the signals can no longer be recorded correctly, and the playback picture will be distorted accordingly. This is the case, for example, if during the playback of a tape, which you know to have excellent recording quality, the picture and sound quality are inferior. When such a symptom occurs, have the recorder checked by qualified service personnel.
