Helpful Hints

If CODE ERROR flashes after you enter the PlusCode programming number and press the VCR PLUS+/ENTER button, the number you entered was incorrect (for exam- ple, too short). If this happens, enter the correct number.

CLASH may flash on the screen at step 3. This means that the timer recording you just programmed and another timer recording overlap, and thus the current timer recording will not be carried out.
