Setting the ShowView
®
System
The ShowView
®
system is a specially-designed
feature for recording TV programs. The system
greatly simpli
fi
es the timer recording process, as
it does not require users to enter program informa-
tion, such as date, channel number and start/end
time, which are all contained in ShowView
®
numbers. You can complete the timer recording
setup simply by inputting the ShowView
®
number,
which can be found in most newspapers, TV listing
magazines or online sources.
Setting up ShowView
®
System
As channel numbers may vary depending on where
you live, it is suggested that you build up a match-
ing channel list when you
fi
rst set up the DVD
recorder. This step will help you to make use of
the ShowView
®
system for future timer recording
settings.
