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.

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