Setting the timer program using the VCR Plus+
system
The VCR Plus+ system simplifies timer recording so
that you just enter a PlusCode number (which you can
find in your TV listings guide) for the program you want
to record, tell the recorder whether you want to record it
just once or regularly, and then select the DVD or the
VCR for recording.
Note that for the VCR Plus+ system to work correctly,
the clock must be set to the right time and the guide
channels must be setup (see Checking the channel
setup to use the VCR Plus+ system above).
1 Press VCR Plus+.
If a PROGRAM FULL message appears then you'll need
to delete one of the existing timer programs before
continuing. Select a timer program from the list and
press CANCEL.
2 Use the number buttons to enter the PlusCode
number.
