of each show, then press REC to record the next show. (Pressing Pause
during recording does not leave an index mark.)
During timed recordings, the VCR automatically inserts an index mark at the
beginning of the recording.
To Record a Second Audio Program (SAP)
Some stations transmit a Second Audio Program - such as in a second
language. If a station broadcasts in SAP, the SA indicator will display on your
TV screen.
You can set the VCR to record a second audio program by activating the
SAP option through the Easy Guide System.
 Press GUIDE, then press 4 to bring up the Initial Setup screen.
 Press 5 to set the SAP option to ON.
 Make sure that STEREO/MONO selection is set to STEREO.
When this is set, the VCR records the second audio program.
Using the Instant Recording Timer (IRT)
The Instant Recording Timer (REC/IRT button on the VCR) will let you make
a simplified timer recording without having to use the programming timer. In
order to set the IRT properly the clock must be set before starting.
Follow the steps 1 through 5 on "Basic Recording Steps" on page 33.
After the recording has started, press the REC/IRT button again to indicate
the recording time on the display.
You can set the recording time length, which increases by intervals of 30
minutes, one hour, one and half hours, two hours, three hours, and four
hours, (i.e. 0:30, 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00) by continually pressing the
REC/IRT button. While you are recording, the time remaining is shown in the
display.
At the end of your recording the display will read "0:00"; recording will then
automatically stop and the VCR will turn itself off.
To stop recording while in the IRT mode, press the POWER button and then
press the STOP button (this can be done either on the VCR or with the
remote control) within 10 seconds.
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.
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.
