Automatic channel search

To find your country, use the ▲ ▼ buttons on your remote control.

7.On the screen that is displayed, the Automatic option is already selected. Press OK.

8.If you connected your devices as indicated on page 4, check that Antenna-Cablehas been allocated to Antenna-Cable, otherwise change the allocation using the B key on the remote control. For the other selections (AV2,AV3,AV4) leave them allocated to Nothing and continue to step 9.

Your DVD recorder is equipped with the AV Link function. This function simplifies channel set-up by downloading them from an AV Link or similar television set (Easy Link, Smart Link, Megalogic, etc.) which is already set up. The channels downloaded in this way keep the same characteristics as those of your TV set (same number, name, etc.).Your DVD recorder’s AV Link downloading function is enabled (factory setting). When first turning on the DVD recorder, if the television is turned on, it will download the channels already installed in your television set. If you wish to de-activate this function, see page 65.
