Setting the timer program using the VCR Plus+ system

The VCR Plus+ system simplifies timer recording so that you just enter a PlusCode number (which you can find in your TV listings guide) for the program you want to record, tell the recorder whether you want to record it just once or regularly, and then select the DVD or the VCR for recording.

Note that for the VCR Plus+ system to work correctly, the clock must be set to the right time and the guide channels must be setup (see Checking the channel setup to use the VCR Plus+ system above).

1 Press VCR Plus+.

If a PROGRAM FULL message appears then youÕll need to delete one of the existing timer programs before continuing. Select a timer program from the list and

press CLEAR/CANCEL.

2Use the number buttons to enter the PlusCode number.
