To Satellite Tuner Users

When timer-recording a satellite programme using
ShowView, after performing steps 1 – 6, set the satellite
tuner to the appropriate channel before the selected
programme begins. Then set the satellite tuner's timer. If the
tuner doesn't have a timer, leave the unit's power turned
on.
