Notes:
¶ Auto channel set function takes place first; it assigns automatically all receivable stations in your area.
¶ Auto clock set function sets the clock automatically by reading the clock setting data from a station transmitting a
PDC signal while auto channel set is being performed.
¶ During auto channel set, the VCR recognizes each station name of the detected stations and stores them in the VCR’s
memory, then automatically sets
VIDEO Plus+ system's
assigned Guide Program number for those stations according
to the broadcast area.
¶ In the area where no TV station transmits a PDC signal, the VCR can perform neither auto clock set nor auto Guide
Program number set.
¶ For RF connection users: The VCR detects the channels which are not occupied by local stations and selects one
channel automatically for your Video Channel that is located in the middle of more than 5 vacant channels.
¶ If there is a power cut, or if you press STANDBY/ON, VCR POWER or MENU while Auto Set Up is in progress, Auto
Set Up will be interrupted; be sure to turn off the VCR power once and try again from step 1.
¶ Auto clock may not function properly depending on the reception condition.
