GUIDE Plus+® System Setup

1 An introduction to the GUIDE Plus+® System will appear. Read this, then press OK to continue through these introductory menus.The remaining menus help you set up the GUIDE Plus+® System, which provides free TV programming information through the Recorder. See pages 43-47.

2 First you will be asked about your country, zip code, Cable TV ser- vice, and Cable Box availability. Use 8CH+ and 9CH- to choose an answer, then press OK. Use the Number buttons to enter the zip code. Follow the instructions on the TV screen.

3 If you do not have Cable TV or a Cable Box, skip to step 8. Otherwise, you will set up your Cable Box next.

When asked to enter your Cable Box output channel: If you used an RF coaxial cable to connect the Cable Box to the Recorder, choose channel 2, 3, or 4. (Choose the output channel of your Cable Box. This may be indicated by a manual switch on your Cable Box.)

Or, if you used Audio and Video cables, choose EXT2, EXT 1, CAM 1, or CAM 2. Choose the channel that matches the jacks on the Recorder to which you connected the Cable Box.

4 Directions for connecting the G-Link cable will appear next. If you have not connected the G-Link cable to the G-LINK jack on the rear of the Recorder, do so now. Press OK when the cable is connected and you are ready to continue. See pages 11 and 18.

5 A list of Cable Box brands will appear. Select your Cable Box brand, then press OK. If your brand is not listed, select “Not Listed.”

6 You will be advised to turn on the Cable Box and set it to channel 2. After doing this, press OK to continue.

7 The Recorder will test codes that allow the G-Link cable to change the Cable Box to channel 9.

A message will ask you to confirm whether the Cable Box has changed to channel 9. If it does, select Yes. Press OK. If the Cable Box does not change to channel 9, check all connec- tions. Select “Test this code again,” then press OK.

Or, choose No and press OK.The Recorder will try a different code. Repeat this process until the Cable Box changes to channel 9.

8 “Confirming your settings” will appear. When the information is correct, choose “Yes, end setup,” then press OK.

If the settings are incorrect, choose “No, repeat setup process,” then press OK.You will go through the setup again. Change any incorrect information.

9 Helpful information about the GUIDE Plus+® System will appear.

Press OK to continue.

A congratulations message will appear, prompting you to select “Watch TV.” Press OK again.You are finished!

Within a few seconds, the DVD Recorder will turn itself off, then on again. When the Recorder turns on again, the GUIDE Plus+® System will show “no data.” This is normal, as the Recorder has not had time to receive programming data.To use the Recorder right away, press GUIDE/TV to remove the GUIDE Plus+® System.

10 Press STANDBY y to turn off the Recorder later. The

GUIDE Plus+® System data will be available in about 24 hours. When the Recorder is off, channels will change on your Cable Box.This is normal, as the unit is searching for GUIDE Plus+® System information.

Leave the Cable Box turned on.
