Recording TV programmes using the ShowView system

Before you start

Check that the VCR clock is set to the correct time and date.

Insert a tape with its safety tab in place. Make sure the tape is longer than the total recording time.

To record from a decoder, turn it on.

Turn on your TV and set it to the video channel.

Set OPTIONS PROGRAMM. to SHOWVIEW or MIXTE in the OPTIONS-2 menu (see page 70).
