Presetting TV programs using the EPG

Using the EPG, you can easily preset digital TV pro- grams for watching later (auto channel select), record- ing with a D-VHS recorder, or recording via a VCR controller.

• A dialog box for confirmation appears.

4Press / to select “OK”, and then press ENTER.

The program is preset and the schedule table is restored.

A blue square icon appears for the preset program.

A black icon appears for overlapped presetttings.

5Press DTV GUIDE to exit the Program Guide.

With the system switched on, a channel switch alarm message approximately 30 seconds before execution and the channel is switched a short time before the start of the program.

Auto channel select is not executed when the system is in the standby mode.

Finish presetting operations one minute before the start of the program; otherwise presettings may fail.
