Notes on timer recording
When a timer recording is set, DVDs that were recorded using 
a different TV system cannot be played unless the TV system is 
changed in the Setup menu (
➔ 55) or the timer recording has 
completed or has been cancelled.
Timer recordings are activated regardless of whether the unit is 
turned on/off.
Timer recordings begin when the set time is reached even when 
playing.
Timer recordings do not begin while editing.
If the unit is turned on when timer recording begins, it remains 
turned on after recording finishes. It does not turn off automatically. 
You can turn the unit off during timer recording.
If the unit is not put in the timer recording standby mode at least 10 
minutes before the programmed timer recording starting time, the 
“z” flashes on the unit’s display.
When you programme successive timer recordings to start 
immediately one after the other, the unit cannot record the part at 
the beginning of the later programmes.
