Plus+. For details, see page 48.
Notes
• It takes about 1 hour to complete channel setup.
• The VCR can receive the program information signal only while the VCR is turned
off and no timer recordings are set.
• If the channels in your area don't carry the program information signals, set the
program guide channels manually. For details, see page 50.
• If the Choose your Cable CH MAP menu appears the first time you turn on the
VCR after finishing channel setup, select the MAP number. For details, see page 49.
Automatic clock setting
Once you've set up the VCR, it automatically sets the clock the first time you
turn off the VCR. After that, whenever you turn off the VCR, it checks the
time and adjusts the clock, even for Daylight Saving Time. The VCR sets the
clock by picking up a time signal provided by some TV channels.
If you want to use the timer to record right away, or if the channels in your
area do not carry time signals, set the clock manually. For details, see page
36.
