Notes on timer recording
≥“F” lights on the unit’s display to indicate that the unit is in timer 
recording standby.
≥“F” flashes when the unit cannot go to timer recording standby.
≥Timer recordings are activated regardless of whether the unit is 
turned on/off.
≥Timer recordings begin when the set time is reached even 
when recording or when playing.
≥Timer recordings do not begin while transferring (dubbing) in 
normal speed mode (➡page 35).
≥When you program successive timer recordings to start 
immediately one after the other, the unit cannot record the part 
at the ending of the earlier program (approximately 15 
seconds). In addition, when recording to DVD-R, the unit 
cannot record the part at the beginning of the later program 
(approximately 15 seconds).
≥If you set DST (Daylight Saving Time) to ON when manually 
setting the clock (➡page 11), timer recording may not work 
when summer switches to winter and vice versa.
∫Relief Recording

if the program will not fit onto the disc, the recording drive will be 
changed to the “HDD” automatically.
≥If there is no disc in the tray or the disc cannot be recorded on 
or when timer recording starts while transferring (dubbing), the 
recording drive will be changed to the HDD.
≥The Direct Navigator shows which programs were relief-
recorded (“ ” is displayed.)(➡page 24).
