IMPORTANT

If you have moved to a different area or if a broadcasting station’s channel number has been changed, the wrong VCR CH or CABLE CH number will be displayed on the Program screen in step 5.

NOTES:

●Even if a power failure occurs, the VCR keeps your timer programs. However, the clock time, channel settings, and other menu settings are lost if it lasts for more than 3 minutes. As a result, when the power is supplied again to this VCR after the power failure, the following will take place.

1.This VCR starts the Plug & Play setting automatically to restore the clock time and channel setting.

2.If the clock time and channel setting are restored correctly, each timer program you have made will start at its start time unless its end time has elapsed.

●To timer-record cable channels received through a cable box, be sure to keep the cable box turned on.

●If “MEMORY FULL” appears on the display when you finish a program setting, the VCR’s memory for the Video Navigation function is full (☞ pg. 42). This is not related to actual recording, so you can finish recording normally, but the Video Navigation information such as recording date, start time, end time, and channel number will not be stored in memory.
