IMPORTANT
In certain reception conditions, station names may not be stored correctly, and auto Guide Program Number Set may not work
properly. If the Guide Program numbers are not set properly, when you timer-record a TV programme using VIDEO Plus+, the
recorder will record a TV programme of a different station. When programming the timer using VIDEO Plus+, be sure to check
that the preset position corresponding to the broadcasting station you wish to record has been selected ( pg. 16, "VIDEO
Plus+ Timer Programming").
Your video recorder memorizes all detected stations even if reception of some of them is poor. In these cases picture quality
may be poor. To delete those stations which have an unacceptable picture "Delete A Channel" on page 57.
If any of the above problems occur, refer to pages 56 – 58 to input station names ( "Set Stations") or delete unnecessary
stations ( "Delete A Channel"). You can also change station preset positions ( "Change Station Preset Position").
For RF connection users: In certain reception conditions, the Video Channel may not be set correctly and interference may
appear in the TV picture while the recorder's power is on. Set your Video Channel manually. pg. 52, "Video Channel Set".
Auto Set Up/Preset Download results appear on the display panel
When neither auto channel set nor auto clock set has been completed successfully, "– –:– –"
will be displayed.
* You can check if the Guide Program numbers have been set correctly when you perform VIDEO Plus+ Timer Programming
( pg. 16); if the correct preset position number is displayed in step 3, this confirms that the Guide Program number for the
PlusCode number you enter in step 2 has been set correctly.
A If both auto channel set and auto clock set have been performed successfully:
1 Turn on the TV and select its VIDEO channel or AV mode, then make sure that all necessary stations have been stored in the
recorder's memory by using the TV PROG button(s).
If station names (ID — pg. 59) have also been stored in the recorder's memory, the station name will be displayed at the
top left corner of the screen for about 5 seconds each time the recorder is tuned to a different station.
If you want to set the tuner manually such as to add or skip channels, to change preset positions, or to set or change station
names, see pages 56 – 58.
Now you have finished the basic set up and can use your recorder for both playback and recording.
B If auto channel set has succeeded but auto clock set has not:
1 Turn on the TV and select its VIDEO channel or AV mode, then make sure that all necessary stations have been stored in the
recorder's memory by using the TV PROG button(s).
If station names (ID — pg. 59) have also been stored in the recorder's memory, the station name will be displayed at the
top left corner of the screen for about 5 seconds each time the recorder is tuned to a different station.
If you want to set the tuner manually such as to add or skip channels, to change preset positions, or to set or change station
names, see pages 56 – 58.
2 Perform "Clock Set" on page 61.
Now you have finished the basic set up and can use your recorder for both playback and recording.
C If both auto channel set and auto clock set have failed:
1 Make sure that the TV aerial cable is connected properly to the recorder (for RF connection), or that the 21-pin SCART cable
is connected properly between TV and the recorder (for AV connection). Turn off the recorder power once, then turn the
recorder power back on again.
