• If Auto Clock Setting is not completed within 30 minutes, there may be no channels with EDS signals. In this case, set the
clock manually. (See “Manual Clock Setting” on page 30.)
• If the antenna signal is weak, the Auto Clock Setting function may not operate.
• During initial channel setting, the channels are set into the AIR channel setting. To watch CATV channels, select “CATV” on

• Do not unplug the power cord immediately after you

after plugging in). In very rare cases, this may cause
the memory to revert to its initial state, and all timer
programs will be erased. If this happens, EZ Setup will
be performed automatically.
