If, however, you wish to continue watching other programmes after setting the timer, you can do so by changing programmes in the normal way. If you are watching another programme when the timer is due to start, a display will appear on screen advising you that, if you change channels, you automatically cancel the recording.
9 If you do not wish to cancel or view the recording, press the /
button whilst one of the displays are still on screen to leave your TV in standby mode. The standby indicator on the front of the TV will flash to show that the timer record operation is active. If, however, you choose to change programmes, you automatically cancel the recording.
Notes: If your video recorder (VCR) is not Smartlink- compatible, you will need to set your VCR to switch on and off automatically after setting the timer on the EPG. If you want to change channel once a digital programme has started recording, select the channel by using the remote control buttons as normal. The message 'STOP RECORDING' will be displayed on screen. Either do nothing to allow the recording to continue or select the required channel once more while the message is still displayed on screen. The recording will then be cancelled.
