Getting started

Switching on and setting up

When you switch the recorder on for the first time, you can make several basic settings using the Setup Navigator feature. This takes you through setting the clock, the internal TV tuner and the video output settings.

If you’re using the recorder for the first time, we strongly recommend you use the Setup Navigator before starting to use the recorder.

Important

Some of the Setup Navigator on-screen displays (OSDs) in this section vary slightly depending on the country or region of purchase.
