IMPORTANT

If you have moved to a different area or if a broadcasting station's channel number has been changed, the wrong VCR or CABLE CH number will be displayed on the VCR Plus+ program screen in step 6. When this happens, set the correct the Guide Channel number for that station. ( pg. 42, "Changing VCR Plus+® Setting")

NOTES:

To disengage the timer before recording starts, press TIMER again. Pressing once more re-engages it.

In case of a power failure after programming, the VCR’s memory backup keeps your selections for approximately 60 minutes.

When timer-recording cable channels received through a Cable Box, be sure to keep the Cable Box set to ON.

It is not possible to timer-record the same programme on both the VHS deck and the DV deck simultaneously.

If the times that are programmed for recording on the DV deck and on the VHS deck overlap, the earlier start time takes precedence. If the start times are the same, the VHS deck takes precedence.

INPUT RECEIVING CHANNEL NUMBER

5 The Guide Channel Number, which is assigned to the TV or cable station for the PlusCode number that you entered in step 4, will appear automatically on the Guide Channel Set screen. Input the number of the channel on which

the broadcast for the PlusCode number is received on the VCR or cable box using the NUMBER keys, CH +/– or %fi, then press OK.

The Guide Channel Set screen appears only when you input the PlusCode number of a station for which the Guide Channel number has not previously been set.

If you receive your channels with a cable box and if you have properly set your Controller, "CABLE CH" appears in place of "VCR CH". If not, refer to pages 15 – 17.
