Setting up a future
recording (UK model only)
You can set the timer to record something from either the
tuner or a component connected to the auxiliary inputs. For
example, you might want to record a program on the radio
that is broadcast while you're at work. If you're recording
from an auxiliary component it must also be able to switch
on at the time the recording starts—this system can't control
it—or you have to leave it switched on until the recording
has finished. During the actual recording, the volume is
automatically set to minimum.

If you're recording from the tuner, switch to the tuner, and

Cancelling the record timer
Once the timer recording has finished, the timer is

before the recording has started, (either because you made a
mistake setting it, or simply because you no longer want to
make the recording), here’s how you do it.
