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 SHOWVIEW,
the recorder will record a TV programme of a different station. When programming the timer using SHOWVIEW, be sure to
check whether the channel position on which your recorder receives the broadcasting station you wish to record is selected
(Z pg. 22, "SHOWVIEW 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 with an unacceptable picture Z "Delete A Channel" on page 37.
INFORMATIONYour recorder is equipped with the Just Clock function which provides accurate time keeping through automatic adjustments at
regular intervals, by reading data from a PDC signal. If you want to take advantage of this function, simply set it to "ON".

●When auto channel set has been completed successfully but auto
clock set has not, "(PR) 1" will be displayed.
●When neither auto channel set nor auto clock set has been
completed successfully, "– –:– –" will be displayed.
●When both auto channel set and auto clock set have been
completed successfully the correct current time will be
displayed.
You can check if the Guide Program numbers have been set correctly when you perform SHOWVIEW Timer Programming
(Z pg. 22); if the correct channel position number is displayed in step 3, this confirms that the Guide Program number for the
SHOWVIEW number you enter in step 2 has been set correctly.
