USING THE VCRPlus+ FUNCTIONS
USING VCRPlus+ TO RECORD A PROGRAM
Once the Remote Control Clock Set has been set, the remote has been programmed for your VCR, and the
VCRPlus+ channel set up is complete, you may take advantage of this quick and easy method of recording.
To begin, it is necessary to get a copy of a publication that carries the VCRPlus+ PlusCodes. These special
PlusCodes can be found in your favorite TV program guide or newspaper. Below is a sample program listing with
PlusCo,-les next to each program.
