Helpful Hints

•CODE ERROR may flash on-screen after step 3 if you enter an incorrect PlusCode programming number (for example, one that is too short). The previous screen will appear. Enter the correct PlusCode programming number.

•If CLASH flashes on-screen after step 3, the timer recording you just pro- grammed and another timer record- ing overlap. The current timer record- ing will not occur.

•You may use the VCR Plus+ Programming System to record pro- grams on Cable TV channels up to channel 99.

•If the VCR PLUS+ CROSS REF. MAP reappears after step 3, the VCR PLUS + channel number for the recording you entered was higher than 99. In this case, enter the cor- rect CABLE/TV channel in the map. Then, press the MENU button and

continue from step 4.
