(160-0545)               Quick Timer Recording        Faxback Doc. # 31905

Quick Timer Recording (QTR) lets you quickly set the VCR to start recording
immediately then stop after a length of time you specify (from 1 minute to
24 hours, within the next 24 hours).

1.  Follow Steps 1-8 under "Recording a Program as You Watch It" above.

2.  Press REC again.  TIMER appears on the VCR's display, and the
    following information about the recording appears on the TV's screen:

    Channel number

    Tape speed (SP or EP)

    STOP: (recording stop time) - the time the VCR will automatically stop
    recording.

    NOTE:  The QTR information appears on the TV screen for 10 seconds,
           then disappears.  If the information disappears before you
           finish entering all changes, simply press REC again.

3.  To change the displayed tape speed, repeatedly press TAPE SPEED until
    the tape speed you want appears.

    NOTE:  You can change the tape's speed during recording, but it might
           cause playback to jitter at the point where you changed the
           tape's speed.

4.  To change the displayed recording stop time, repeatedly press REC to
    advance the displayed stop time in 10-minute increments.  Then
    repeatedly press CH (+) or (-) to change the displayed stop time in
    1-minute increments.

5.  When you finish entering all QTR information, simply wait 10 seconds
    without pressing any key.  The QTR information disappears.

The VCR continues to record, stops recording at the recording stop time you
set in Step 4, then turns itself off.

QTR Hints

    To ensure that you record all of the desired program, set the recording
    stop time a few minutes later than the scheduled end of the program.

    You can program QTR information only while a tape is recording.  You
    cannot program QTR information during playback or while a tape is
    stopped.

    You can check automatic program timer settings during QTR.  See
    "Automatic Timer Recording", below.

    Be sure the tape length you select for QTR is long enough to record
    the entire program.  Even though you can set the VCR to record for up
    to 24 hours, the actual recording time is limited by the tape's length.

    To cancel QTR while the VCR is recording, press STOP/EJECT on the VCR
    or STOP on the remote control.
