After downloading has finished, the channel mapping screen appears showing which channels have been assigned to which program numbers.

Tip

If the channel tuning information is updated in the TV, the recorder will automatically download the new information.

Manual CH Setting

The channel skip function lets you skip channels where there is no station so that as you change channels using the CHANNEL +/– buttons or the number buttons, you only change to channels that have a station.

The manual tuning function allows you to manually tune to stations, should you need to.

AFT (Auto Fine Tune) – When set to On, the station is automatically tuned; set to Off to manually fine tune (see below).

Level – Set the AFT level (see above).

Sound System – Set the sound system used for the current channel.

Name – Move the cursor right then input a name for the current station, (up to five characters) then press
