13.1 Timer Manager
The Timer Manager is used to set, edit or delete:
o recording timers for the programmes you want to record using your VCR or DVD recorder,
o reminders for the programmes you want to see in the near future.
To be able to record a digital channel using a VCR or DVD recorder, you must program both your recorder and receiver:
-You must set a timer on your receiver.
-You must also set a timer on the VCR or DVD recorder (refer to the VCR or DVD recorder user manual).
If you have a Philips VCR or DVD recorder, you can avoid setting a timer on the VCR or DVD recorder by using the Video/DVD Recorder Control feature. Refer to paragraph 14.3 for more information on Video/DVD Recorder Control.
To delete an existing timer:
-Scroll to the timer you want to delete.
-Press the red colour key to delete it from the timer list.
-Press EXIT to exit the screen.
