IMPORTANT

■In certain reception conditions, station names may not be stored correctly, and auto Guide Program Number Set may not work properly. If the Guide Program numbers are not set properly, when you timer-record a TV programme using SHOWVIEW, the recorder will record a TV programme of a different station. When programming the timer using SHOWVIEW, be sure to check whether the channel position on which your recorder receives the broadcasting station you wish to record is selected (☞ pg. 20, "SHOWVIEW Timer Programming").

■Your video recorder memorizes all detected stations even if reception of some of them is poor. In these cases picture quality may be poor. To delete those stations with an unacceptable picture ☞ "Delete A Channel" on page 41.

■For RF connection users: In certain reception conditions, the Video Channel may not be set correctly and interference may appear in the TV picture while the recorder's power is on. Set your Video Channel manually. ☞ pg. 37, "Video Channel Set".
