PThe most important features of the DVD recorder appear as scrolling text on the display.

After the first installation is completed (all TV channels installed) this function will be switched off.

Initial installation

After successfully connecting your DVD recorder to the TV and other additional devices, the initial installation can start. After the basic settings for DVD-playback, the DVD recorder automatically seeks and stores all available TV channels.

The settings can be changed later. Refer to 'User Preferences/Settings II'.

Switching on additional devices

If you have connected additional devices such as a satellite receiver to the aerial cable, switch them on. The automatic channel search will recognise it and save it. Please observe that you must switch on a "test signal" for some additional devices.

No aerial connected

Even if you only want to use the DVD recorder to play back or have only connected a satellite receiver, you must still complete the initial installation. This is necessary so that the basic settings are stored correctly. Once initial installation is complete you can use the DVD recorder as normal.
