"Auto" appears on the display panel and blinks; do NOT press any
button on the recorder or remote control until the display panel
shows either the current time or "(PR)1" or "– – :– –". (Refer to box
on page 9.) Auto Set Up usually takes about 4 – 12 minutes; the

●Auto channel set function takes place first; it assigns automati-
cally all receivable stations in your area.
●Auto clock set function sets the clock automatically.
●During auto channel set, the recorder recognizes each station
name of the detected stations and stores them in the recorder's
memory, then automatically sets the Video Plus+ assigned Guide
Program number for those stations according to the broadcast
area.
●If the TV power is on and its video
channel or AV mode is selected
during Auto Set Up, the AUTO
SET screen will appear.
●If there is power cut or if you
press or MENU while
Auto Set Up is in progress,
Auto Set Up will be interrupted;
be sure to turn off the recorder power once and press to turn
the power back on in order to re-start Auto Set Up.
IMPORTANT
nIn certain reception conditions, station names may not be stored correctly, and auto Guide Program Number Set may not work
properly. If the Guide Program numbers are not set properly, when you timer-record a TV programme using Video Plus+, the
recorder will record a TV programme of a different station. When programming the timer using Video Plus+, be sure to check
that the preset position corresponding to the broadcasting station you wish to record has been selected (Z pg. 14, "Video
Plus+ Timer Programming").
nYour video recorder memorizes all detected stations even if reception of some of them is poor. In these cases picture quality
may be poor. To delete those stations which have an unacceptable picture Z "Delete A Channel" on page 33.
nIf any of the above problems occur, refer to pages 32 – 34 to input station names (Z "Set Stations") or delete unnecessary
stations (Z "Delete A Channel"). You can also change station preset positions (Z "Change Station Preset Position").
ATTENTION
Once you have performed Auto Set Up, all the stored stations and their Guide Program numbers remain in the recorder's
memory and the recorder will not perform Auto Set Up again. If there is a power cut and the recorder's memory backup expires
you only need to reset the clock. (Z pg. 37)
If you have moved to a different area, perform each setting as required.
