For certain channels your DVD recorder offers a daily and sometimes following day TV programme guide.The information that it provides come from the Teletext and NexTView services broadcast by certain channels.The updating of Naviclik information is carried out once every 24 hours.

Note: the downloading of Naviclick data (at 3am or 8am) can be quite long (up to 2 hours). During this time you should not use your DVD recorder, nor turn it on or have a programme programmed for recording during this updating time (from 3am to 5am or 8am to 10am) otherwise the information will be lost. For countries that provide the NexTView service we recommend that you set the downloading time to 3am.The full guide of TV programmes can only be consulted the following day after an initial installation. It is necessary to allow your DVD recorder to download the guide at the time set in the Naviclick Setup menu (page 66).
