Initial installation
After successfully connecting your DVD recorder to the TV set and
other additional devices as described in the previous chapters, this
chapter will show you how to start the initial installation. The DVD
recorder automatically seeks and stores all available TV channels.
Switching on additional devices
If you have connected additional devices such as a satellite receiver to the
aerial cable, switch them on. The automatic channel search will recognise it
and save it. Please observe that you must switch on a "test signal" for some
additional devices.
No aerial connected
Even if you only want to use the DVD recorder to play back or have only
connected a satellite receiver, you must still complete the initial installation.
This is necessary so that the basic settings are stored correctly. Once initial
installation is complete you can use the DVD recorder as normal.
