SETTING THE ON-SCREEN LANGUAGE/CHANNELS/ CLOCK

The first time you turn on the TV/VCR, the SELECT LANGUAGE screen automatically ap- pears. You can set the TV/VCR to display on- screen menus in English or in Spanish. After you select a language, the TV/VCR automatical- ly scans through the channels and stores all ac- tive channels in your area. Then the TV/VCR automatically sets the clock if a broadcast sta- tion with an EDS signal is available in your area.

Notes:

Make sure you have connected the TV/ VCR to your cable system or an antenna before continuing (see “Connecting an Out- door Antenna” or “Connecting to a Cable System” on Page 9).

The on-screen language defaults to English.

EDS is a service provided by some broad- casters such as PBS to transmit various types of information, including the current time. If no broadcaster in your area trans- mits EDS signals, you must set the clock manually after the TV/VCR finishes looking for an EDS signal. If you want to use timer recording immediately, you can stop the TV/VCR from looking for an EDS signal by setting the clock manually. See “Setting the Clock Manually” on Page 15.

The TV/VCR might not store active chan- nels and automatically set the clock if the signal the TV/VCR receives from your antenna is weak.
