tuning channels
Before you can use all of the VCR features on your DVD/VCR,
you must tune in all available TV/Satellite/Cable channels from your TV to your DVD/VCR.
Note:
Your DVD/VCR
features a tuner that can
store up to 80 different
channels (if available).
Before you can view a
channel on your unit or
make a recording, you
must tune all available
stations into your VCR.
Switch on any external
equipment connected to
your unit (e.g. a satellite
decoder) before you start
tuning.
It is highly recommended
that you store the
channels you tune in the
order shown in the table
below.

(if available)
If you have your
Satellite/Cable, etc.
connected via a SCART
lead to your DVD/VCR,
then press 0/AV on your

rather than tuning it into

Press enter/select to save your settings.
