Adding/Erasing Channels

We recommend you check the channels the VCR automatically stored. It might have stored distant, weak channels that you normally would not watch, or it might have missed channels you want to store.

If the tuner stores a channel that you do not want, repeatedly press (or hold down) CH s or t or use the remote control’s number buttons to tune to that channel, then press ADD/DLT. CHANNEL nn DELETED appears, and the un- wanted channel is erased from the tuner’s memory.

To add a channel, enter the desired channel number using the number buttons. Then press ADD/DLT. CHANNEL nn ADDED appears, and the channel is added to memory.

Turning On Auto Clock Set

If you turned off the auto clock set feature and manually set the VCR’s clock, then find that EDS is available in your area, you can turn the auto clock set feature back on. This ensures that the VCR automatically sets itself to the correct time after a power failure of less than 24 hours.

Follow these steps to turn on auto clock set.
