You can simplify the programming
method of timer recording by using the

G-

CODE

 system. Whenever you want to

record a TV program, all you need to do
is to find out the programme’s 

G-

CODE

number.

You can easily find out this number by
checking the TV programme list of your
local newspaper or TV guide magazine.
Simply entering the programme’s

G-

CODE

 

 number using the remote

control will make the VCR record the
programme.

Before using the 

G-

CODE

 system for the

first time, you need to set the guide
channel number for each local channel
number. The local channel (user
channel) number 
 is the number you
select on the VCR to record a pro-
gramme, while the guide channel
number
  is the one assigned to that
local channel and you can also find it in
the TV programme list of your local
newspaper or TV guide magazine.

• You can use the tables below to note

your local TV (or Cable) channel
numbers and their guide channel
numbers.
