Notes on timer programming
≥When recording in FR mode, in cases where the space
remaining on the disc is insufficient, it may not be possible to
record to the finish of the program.
≥The remaining time displayed is based on the current recording
mode.
≥Approximately 30 seconds at the beginning of subsequent pro-
grams is not recorded when you use timer recording to record
subsequent programs to a DVD-R.
≥If you set DST (Daylight Saving Time) to ON when manually
setting the clock (➜page 54), timer recording may not work
when summer switches to winter and vice versa.
≥“Á” flashes when the unit couldn’t go to timer recording
standby (e.g., a disc isn’t loaded, a disc that can’t be recorded
to is loaded, or the disc is protected). Check the disc carefully.
