6. Programming a recording (TIMER)
General information
Use a TIMER programming to automatically start and stop a recording at a later time or date. The video recorder will switch to the right programme number and begin recording at the correct time. With this video recorder, you can
*the date you want to make the recording
*the programme number of the TV channel
*the start and stop time of the recording
*PDC on or off
This information is saved in a 'TIMER' block.
What is 'PDC'?
'PDC' (Programme Delivery Control) is used to control the start and duration of TV channel recordings. If a TV programme starts earlier or ends later than scheduled, the video recorder will turn on and off at the correct time.
What do I need to know about 'PDC'? Usually the PDC time is the same as the start time. But if your TV guide shows a PDC time which is different from the programme’s sched- uled start time, e.g. 20.10 (PDC 20.14), you must enter the PDC time exactly to the minute. If you want a start time different from the PDC time, you must switch PDC off.
Programming a recording (with the VIDEO Plus+® system)
Thanks to this programming system, you no longer need to tediously enter the date, pro- gramme number, start and end time. All the information needed for programming is con- tained in the PlusCode programming number.

1.Switch the TV on. If applicable, select the programme number for the video recorder operation.
2.Press SV/V+ on the remote control.

3.Enter the entire PlusCode programming num- ber. This number is up to 9 digits long and can be found next to the start time of the TV pro- gramme in your TV listing magazine.
