Helpful Hints

•The Program Overlap Warning does not function with Turbo Timer. The timer recording with the earliest start time will record. Then, the remaining portion of the later recording will record.

•To exit Turbo Timer mode at any time, press the TURBO TIMER button.

•DAILY or WEEKLY timer recordings can not be set with Turbo Timer.

•Tape speed can be selected at any time during steps 2-4 by pressing the ALT/SPEED button.

•If you are using a DBS with the Controller, and have selected a channel number which is between 100-199, you need to specify whether the channel is for Cable TV or Satellite TV (DBS).

the proper channel mode.
