‘The TV guide features are displayed at the bottom of the screen. Use the coloured keys red, green, yellow, blue or white to activate them.

•Record (red key) : this feature enables you to record a digital channel even the TV is in standby mode. You will still have to programme your video recorder. If you wish to continue watching another digital channel after setting a timer, you can do so by changing channels in the normal way.

If your recorder supports *pin 8 recording, switch your recorder to that mode.

*Pin 8 recording refers to the technique of using the pin 8 signal on a Scart cable (normally used to indicate the presence of a signal for display on the TV) connected between an idTV/Set-top box and a recorder, to switch the VCR into record mode. The pin 8 signal effectively acts as a record on/off switch, whilst additionally signalling thes aspect ratio of the video signal carried on the cable.

IMPORTANT : In digital mode, if you change the channel when recording starts, a message will appear on the screen to confirm whether you want to stop recording. Select Yes if you want to stop recording. The TV will switch to the channel you have changed. If you select No, the TV

will record the last channel you have selected. During recording, you are unable to access

the Digital menu. If you press the key, the same message will appear when

you change the channel when recording starts.

•Record list (green key) : this menu gives the list of recording schedules.You can check, modify, delete or add a new schedule by using the cursor or coloured keys as indicated on the screen.

•Top (yellow key) : to go directly to the top of the list.
