IMPORTANT

If you have moved to a different area or if a broadcasting station’s channel number has been changed, the wrong VCR CH number will be displayed on the

Program screen (step 5 on page 25). When this happens, perform the following steps to set the correct guide channel number for that station.

To ensure that VCR Plus+ timer recording operates correctly, it is necessary to set the VCR Plus+ “Guide Channel Set” for each station. Read the following information carefully.

VCR Plus+ guide channel matching

The VCR Plus+ programing system assigns a VCR Plus+ guide channel to the TV channels and the cable channels. These guide channel numbers are also called the VCR Plus+ channel codes. Most TV listings have a section, usually a chart, indicating the guide channel numbers assigned to each station. For accurate VCR Plus+ programing, the VCR Plus+ guide channel number for each station should match the channel number on which it is received in your area.

NOTES:

In many instances, the VCR Plus+ guide channel numbers for cable and broadcast TV stations DO NOT match the channel number on which it is received by your VCR or cable box.

Check your TV listing, or contact your cable supplier for details.

Many TV stations can be viewed on cable. Check your TV listing, or contact your cable supplier for details.
