This function enables you to set the recording length
simply by pressing the REC/OTR button on the VCR.
You cannot use the remote control for this func-
tion.
Be sure to check that the "PWR." and the "VCR"
indicators are both on.
Turn on the TV and set the TV to channel
3 or 4. Now set the CH3/CH4 switch on
the back of the VCR to match the channel
selected on the TV.
Insert a cassette tape with its erase prevention tab in
place. (If necessary, rewind or fast forward the tape
to the point at which you want to begin recording.)
If you connected the VCR to a cable box or satellite
box as in "Basic connections" on page 18, select the
VCR to channel 3 or 4 the same channel as the CH3
or CH4 switch on the back of the VCR. Then, select
the channel you want to record at the cable box or
satellite box. In this case, you can ONLY record and
view the SAME channel.

Begin OTR
Press the REC/OTR button on
the VCR as many times as
needed. The recording length
will be determined by the num-
ber of times you press the REC/OTR button.
Each additional push will increase the recording time by
30 minutes. It can be set for up to 8 hours.
Recording starts immediately when the REC/OTR
button is pressed, whether you are watching the same
or a different channel.
When the REC/OTR button is pressed 18 times, the
VCR returns to the normal recording mode.
To stop the OTR operation, press the STOP button.
To show the remaining time, press the DISPLAY
button on the remote control so that "OTR" appears
on the TV screen. (It will show up momentarily then
disappear.)
Recording stops when 0:00 is reached.
Please note that in the SLP mode maximum record-
ing time, assuming the tape is started at the begin-
ning, is 8 hours using T-160 (or 6 hours using T-120).
The TV that is connected to your VCR may be turned
on or off during OTR.
If the tape runs out before the end time, the VCR will
switch to the Stop mode immediately, eject the tape
and turn power off.
