selects PM

you want the best quality picture for this

indicator on the VCR's display.

Reviewing
What You Have Programmed
You can look back over any of the recordings
you have preset, and if you need
to, clear out any of the programs.
Normal programs
will clear automatically
once
recording
is complete,
but daily and weekly settings
must be cleared out
manually.
Press GUIDE, then press 1 for the PROGRAM
REVIEW
option. This brings up
the screen settings for the first program.
Keep pressing
1 to cycle through all the
programs
you have preset.
To remove a program,
press CLEAR. The screen will display the next program,
if there are more, or it will switch back to regular TV viewing.
Programming
Priorities
When you have set up several timed recordings,
it may occur that some of their
times overlap.
For example,
this can happen
if you are set up to record shows on
a daily or weekly basis, and a special show comes on that you try to record
during the same time slot.
Shows with Same Starting Time
If the overlapping
programs
start at the same time, the VCR records
in order that
they were programmed.
If the shows are all scheduled
to start at 7 AM, the VCR
starts with the first program
at 7 AM, and switches
to what remains of the second
program when the first program
is done recording,
and so on.
Shows with Different
Starting
Times
If the programs
start at different
times, the VCR records the show scheduled
to
start earliest,
records the entire show, then moves on to the show with the next
earliest starting time.
To avoid recording
only bits and pieces of different
overlapping
shows, review
your programming
and delete those shows that are not essential.
