The VCR needs to find, identify and memorise all available stations in your area in order to record programmes correctly. Once done, pressing the Aor Bbuttons enables you to jump to the available channels without going via any vacant channels. This channel search can be done either automatically or manually. You should only need to perform either of the following procedures if Auto Setup has failed to identify and record available channels or you have moved to a new area.
