Thank you for having the manual I needed for an older model Aiwa stero I had found on Ebay --- I wanted the Aiwa because I had tapes and cd's but I did not have a manual as to how to operate the system... I found what I needed and it has enabled me to set the system up for my enjoyment.
The manual was very helpfull, it answerdes all my questions, and i was surprized to find the original manual on this site! Big thumbs uP:)

Your VCR allows you to make recordings using a variety of simple methods : Quick Set Recording (QSR) start recording immediately for a set period of time or until the video cassette runs out. Timer Recording you may record at a later time (up to 1 month from the present). Up to 7 of these automatic recordings may be set. VIDEO Plus+ Recording (Only for AC259I) greatly simplifies entering the date, channel, start and end times of a Timer Recording . Make sure that you have correctly installed your VCR as described earlier in this book. Turn on your TV and select the channel that you set up for video playback. Insert a video cassette with protection tab into your VCR.
The video cassette should have the window side facing up and the arrow facing away from you.
