If you are having trouble displaying the

following:
The clock must be set correctly. If the clock
is not set, set it manually (page 129).
This recorder downloads the GUIDE Plus+
data several times a day when the recorder
is turned off (standby mode). Turn off the
recorder when you are not using it (for
example, at night). After initial setup
(page 26), it may take up to 24 hours for
your recorder to start receiving programme
listings. It may take up to one day to receive
all seven days of TV programme listings.
• Check the following if the programme
guide data has not been received after
waiting for a day:
–“Easy Setup” (page 26) is completed.
– The host channel is not disabled (see
“Disabling programme positions” on
page 70).
–The timer is not set.
If the programme guide data still cannot be
received after checking the above, search
for the host channel at the following
website and set the host channel manually
(page 69):
www.europe.guideplus.com
• If the host channel has changed or moved,
the programme guide data cannot be
received. In this case, follow the steps in
“Searching for the GUIDE Plus+ host
channel” (page 68) to update the host
channel setting.
• If the set top box receiver is connected to
the recorder using a SCART cord only, do
the following:
– Turn on your set top box receiver.
– Connect the set top box controller.
– Follow the steps in “Changing the GUIDE
Plus+ host channel manually” (page 69)
to set the host channel manually. Be sure
to set your set top box receiver (tuner) as
the source.
b Notes
Your set top box receiver’s programme position
may suddenly change even if the recorder is
turned off. This is because the set top box
controller has changed the programme position to
receive the GUIDE Plus+ data.
When you reset the recorder (page 158) the
following GUIDE Plus+ system settings are reset:
– Country/region setting in “Easy Setup”
– “Country” of “Setup” - “Basic Setup” in the
Menu Bar
– “Postal Code” of “Setup” - “Basic Setup” in the
Menu Bar
Note that the GUIDE Plus+ system is also reset
when you make changes to the host channel
settings.
The GUIDE Plus+ system cannot be used when
“Input Line System” is set to “NTSC” in the
“Basic” setup (page 130).
