An Example
Let's say you were interviewed today by a local TV reporter. You're eager to see
yourself on the evening news tonight. The news comes on channel 8 at 6 o'clock - but
you've got a meeting scheduledduring that time. Luckily you have just purchased this
Hitachi VCR.
Press GUIDE, press 2 then press 1 to bring up the screen for One Time recording:
Now fill in the blanks:
• Select channel 8 by pressing 0 and 8 on the remote control.
• Enter the start time by pressing 0, 6, 0 and 0 for 6 o'clock. Then press 2 for PM.
• Enter the end time, half past six, as 6:30. The VCR automatically selects PM for you.
• The screen shows today's date, so no changes are needed on that line.
• Press TAPE SPEED to switch to SP because you want the best quality picture for this
recording.
Everything is as you want it, so press GUIDE to set the program in memory.
