The Initial Setup menu

The Initial Setup menu is where you can set various recorder options for sound, picture, language and so on.

•Some settings can only be changed when the recorder is stopped. During playback these settings are grayed out in the Initial Setup menu.

•Except for the Setup Navigator, menu screens are exited automatically after 20 minutes of inactivity.

The date (month, day, year) and time must be set before you can use any of the timer recording features.

The clock can be set automatically if there is a broadcast station transmitting clock signals, or manually.

Select Auto to set the clock automatically or Manual to display the clock setting screen.

Some TV channels broadcast time signals together with the program. This recorder can use these signals to set the clock automatically.

Set ‘Clock Set CH‘ to the channel preset number that broadcasts a clock signal, then move the cursor down to ‘Start’ and press ENTER.
