Time-shifting in Record Mode

1 Open the TV Panel and click the Setup button. (See page 25.)
The Setup window opens.
2 Click the Time Shifting tab.
3 Click the Record Mode radio button.
4 Click OK to close the Setup window.
To activate Time Shift mode:
1 Watch TV as normal, and press Time Shift on the remote
control when desired.
2 Use the Time Shift features as described in Time-shifting on
page 27.
