You don't press it; you leave a switch lever at that setting. When the power
comes back on, the boot-up routines in ROM check the position of that lever:
record, off, or play.

Because they can't write manuals to save their lives. The timer functions
are described HORRIBLY. When I got my first deck with the facility I could
not make any sense out of the instructions on how to use it; I figured it out
by guesswork.
