INFORMATION

G-

CODE

and S

HOW

IEW

are different trademarks used to represent

the same easy recording feature, but only the term G-

CODE

system

will be used in the instructions. If you use the S

HOW

IEW

system,

follow the same instructions listed for the G-

CODE

system.

The G-

CODE

timer programming system eliminates the need to

input channel, date, start and stop time data when setting the
timer record function. Simply key in the G-

CODE

number for the

TV programme you wish to record (found in most TV listings) and
the recorder's timer is automatically programmed.

You have to set “GUIDE PROG” numbers, which are assigned to
each station for purposes of G-

CODE

timer programming, for all

the stations stored in your recorder’s memory to get proper results.

Before G-

CODE

setup you must have performed the procedures of

Tuner Set and Clock Set.

IMPORTANT

Perform the following procedure after Auto Set Up and/or the
channel setting steps.

be incorrect if you stored or skipped channels. In this case, re-
