Programme Navigation
When you record a TV programme with this VCR, the VCR automatically stores in its memory the recording date, start time and station name. You can store these information for up to
8programmes on one cassette. At maximum, information for 10 tapes can be stored. You can also enter the programme title when performing ‘VIDEO Plus+ Timer Programming’ ( pg. 23) or ‘Express Timer Programming’ ( pg. 26). It is possible to store these infor- mation only when ‘PROG. NAVIGATION’ is set to ‘ON’ (default setting) ( pg. 41).
