receiving data. If you power on the
recorder during an EPG download, the
download is cancelled.

a day. All updates are automatic.

main area of the screen now shows a list
of channels. Those that are turned ON
are displayed in the grid; those that are
OFF are hidden. Use the
buttons to move down the list and turn
channels ON or OFF as necessary.
• For any channel that you turn ON, the
GUIDE Plus+ system will need to know
how it is received (the source) and on
which programme number. The source
may be the built-in tuner of this recorder,
or an external receiver. The programme
number is the number on which the
channel can be found on its receiving
device/source. The entry in the Editor
screen must match this number for
correct recording of that channel.
• The above is especially important for the
'host channel'. Please make sure that
the host channel is always switched ON.

certain channels together, for example.

Action button (Home) to get back to the
GUIDE Plus+ home screen.
