When alarm recording is completed, the unit is set to the timer recording standby mode. � Even when the power should fail, the start and stop times set for timer recording are stored in the memory provided that the power is restored within a week or so (but only if power has been supplied continuously to the unit for 3 or more days). � When the unit has just been purchased or when it has not been used for a long time, the start and stop times are not stored in the memory.
