VCR Plus+® SILVER System
The VCR Plus+ SILVER system makes VCR set up easier by setting and updating the clock and
channel list for you automatically. During the first-time QuickSet Guide setup, the VCR prompts
you to enter your zip code. Soon after, the VCR clock will set itself and your VCR Plus+ system
channel list will be input for you.
Time, date, and VCR Plus+ system information are downloaded from participating TV stations
over your antenna or cable system. Time and date information are updated each time the VCR is
turned off (and after every power interruption). So, when your TV stations or cable company
update their lineups, your VCR will get the most current channel list automatically, freeing you
from having to manually change the channel list yourself.
If your VCR Plus+ SILVER system fails to download the proper information for any reason, you
can always manually map the channels. You can also turn off AUTO VCR Plus+ if you keep
getting prompts about multiple cable services by pressing the 2 button in the VCR Plus+ SETUP
menu.

MENU

prompts and map the channels manually.
