If you cannot receive any of the Host Channels (see the above table) then you won’t be able to use the GUIDE Plus+ system. In this case do not set the postal code (or set Country to Other) in the GUIDE Plus+ setup screen. (When GUIDE Plus+ service starts in your area, set the postal code again.)

If digital broadcasts start in your area, please set the EPG Type Select setting in the Initial Setup menu to Digital EPG.

Even if you can’t use the EPG functions where you live, you can still set VIDEO Plus+ recordings and manual recordings — see Setting a manual recording on page 81.

The front panel display shows EPG when receiving data. If you power on the recorder during an EPG download, the download is cancelled.

EPG data may be received several times a day. All updates are automatic.

When downloading EPG data, the recorder may sound as though it is on. This is normal.

For any channel that you turn ON, the GUIDE Plus+ system will need to know how it is received (the source) and on which programme number. The source may be the built-in tuner of this recorder, or an external receiver. The programme number is the number on which the channel can be found on its receiving device/source. The entry in the Editor screen must match this number for correct recording of that channel.

The above is especially important for the ‘Host Channel’. Please make sure that the Host Channel is always switched ON.
