After setting the recording you can put the TV into its standby mode, but do not switch off completely or the
recording will be cancelled. If you put the TV into standby mode, the standby indicator on the front of the TV
flashes green periodically to remind you that a recording has been programmed. Once recording has started,
do not change channels or switch to analogue mode or the recording will be cancelled.
