Presetting TV programs using the timer

Using the menu, you can easily preset TV programs for watching later (auto channel select), recording with a D-VHS recorder, or recording via the supplied VCR controller.

With the power to the system left on, the Auto Channel Preset automatically selects the preset TV program when its on-air time comes. Then you will not miss an important TV program when you are enjoying another TV program.

For the connections with a D-VHS recorder, see pages 54 and

55.For the connections with the supplied VCR controller, see page 59.
