Helpful Hints

CODE ERROR may flash on-screen after step 2 if you enter an incorrect number (for example, one that is too short). The previous screen will appear. Enter the correct PlusCode programming number.

If the VCR PLUS+ CROSS REF. MAP reappears after step 2, the VCR PLUS + channel number for the recording you entered was higher than 99. In this case, enter the cor- rect CABLE/TV channel in the map. Then, press the MENU button and continue from step 3.

If CLASH flashes on-screen after step 2, the timer recording you just pro- grammed and another timer record- ing overlap. The current timer record- ing will not occur.
