The VCR receives the program information signal from 0:00 am to 5:00 am while the VCR is turned off, and set up the channel for VCR Plus+ recording. After channel setup is finished, you can record TV programs using VCR Plus+. For details, see page 49.

Notes

*It takes about 1 hour to complete channel setup.

*The VCR can receive the program information signal only while the VCR is turned off and no timer recordings are set.

*If the channels in your area don't carry the program information signals, set the program guide channels manually. For details, see page 51.

*If the Choose you Cable CH MAP menu appears the first time you turn on the

VCR after finishing channel setup, select the MAP number. For details, see page 50.

Automatic clock setting

Once you've set up the VCR, it automatically sets the clock the first time you turn off the VCR. After that, whenever you turn off the VCR, it checks the time and and adjusts the clock, even for Daylight Saving Time. The VCR sets the clock by picking up a time signal provided by some TV channels.

If you want to use the timer to record right away, or if the channels in your area do not carry time signals, set the clock manually. For details, see page 37.
