Using the Timer Functions
 
The DVD receiver features three timer functions: Sleep, Once, and Every timer.
Selecting a timer number
 
You can set up to four timers.
 
Timer operation types
 
• Timer Play: The specified component starts playback 
at the specified time.
• Timer Rec: The specified component starts recording 
at the specified time.
The Timer Rec operation is available for recording on 
an Onkyo cassette tape deck that features an 
 con-
nector connected to the DVD receiver. Select the cor-
rect input source.
 
Selecting media for timer operation
 
You can select any external device equipped with timer, 
including AM/FM tuner, DVD (only with disc loaded in 
the tray) and Onkyo cassette tape deck linked to the 
DVD receiver. (You must set the devices so that the com-
ponent name is displayed correctly on the DVD 
receiver.)
For the Timer Rec operation, you can select AM, FM, or 
an external component that is connected to the LINE 
connector and features the Timer function.
 
Selecting the day(s) of the week
 
The Once timer operates only one time. The Every timer 
operates at the specified time on the specified day(s) of 
every week. For the Every timer, you can select any con-
secutive days of the week, such as everyday, every Mon-
day through Friday, or every Saturday and Sunday.

Notes:
 
• You cannot change the clock or the end time of the 
timer operation during Timer playback or recording.
• You cannot use the Timer function unless the clock is 
set. Be sure to set the clock first.
• If you program a timer on a connected external com-
ponent, be sure to connect the component correctly 
and securely. You cannot use timer playback or 
recording with incomplete connection.
• During the Timer Rec operation, the muting function 
is activated and the audio level is minimized. To listen 
to the audio being recorded, press MUTING on the 
remote controller.

If any of the timers is set, the TIMER indicator lights up. 
If a number indicator is lit, the corresponding timer has 
been programmed. If the number indicator is inside a 
square, the Timer Rec operation is programmed.

lower number is enabled.
