Notes



If the unit is disconnected from the AC mains, all programme data

are lost.



The programme list is available immediately if this unit has found

a digital station and loaded the information in the memory. This
process can take a while depending on the particular station.



The programme list data are continuously downloaded in the

background when the unit is turned on. That means that the
programme list can sometimes change while you are looking at it.

If the “Overlapped Timer Recording”
screen appears

If you set a timer recording that will overlap with other
timer recordings using the GUIDE Plus+ system, the
“Overlapped Timer Recording” screen appears to help
you eliminate the overlapping.
Follow the on-screen instructions.
