Setting the VCR to Record Later
With the delayed recording feature, you can set this VCR so that it automatically comes
on and records programs whenever you like - without your being around! You can
record a program one time only, or you can automatically record a show every weekday
or every week at the same time. You can preset as many as 8 timed recordings at once.
Recording is even easier when you have set up your channels for VCR Plus+. Learn the
basics of delayed recording in this section. Then read about VCR Plus+ beginning on
page 40.
We suggest you try all the different ways of programming the VCR when you have
some leisure time, so you can learn how it works. That way, when an important show is
going to be on that you really want to record, you'll be confident that your timed
recording setup will work.
Types of Delayed Recordings
ONE TIME Records one show at a particular date and time.
DAILY Records a show at the same time every day of the week, Monday through
Friday.
WEEKLY Records a show at the same day and time every week.
Your VCR can record up to 8 programs at different days and times, or up to 8 programs
on the same day.
