Set a Manual Event Timer
Use a manual event timer to manually set the start and stop time of a recording. This is useful for recording all of a sports event, even if it goes into overtime. Or, you can record part of a program, or several programs one after the other.
Notes:
•Before you set a manual timer, use the Program Guide or program lists to find the start and end times you want to set.
•You can’t set a manual timer for a pay per view program.
•You must set the end time after the start time, and set the end time at least one minute later than the start time.

1. Press the MENU button.
2.Select the Timers option.
This opens the Event Timer Management menu.
3. Select the Create option.
