40 Quick Programming

Follow the steps below to program your VCR to record TV programs while you’re away from home. The VCR will turn itself on, record, and turn itself off automatically.

Before you begin, make sure:

Channels are programmed. Details are on pages 12-13.

The clock is set. Details are on pages 14-18.If the clock is not set, CLOCK MUST BE SET appears on the screen, followed by the menu.

There is a tape in the VCR. Make sure the tape’s record tab is intact and the tape is long enough to record the program(s).

The VCR is in VCR position. The VCR light will appear on the display panel when the VCR is in VCR position. If the VCR light does not appear, press the VCR/TV button once.

When you use a Cable Box/DBS, timer recordings are programmed differently. Read pages 8-9 before proceeding.

Complete each step within 60 seconds of the previous step.

Helpful Hint

If you are using a DBS with the Controller, CABLE/TV or DBS appears beside the channel number. You may need to clarify whether the desired channel is for Cable TV or Satellite TV (DBS). If so, “CABLE/TV OR DBS: 0” will appear at the bottom of the screen. Press the Number 0 (DBS) button to select either CABLE/TV or DBS. Press the button repeatedly to switch between the CABLE/TV and DBS settings.

CABLE/TV is to record a cable TV program received on the VCR or through

a Cable Box; DBS is to record a satellite program received through a

DBS.
