How does Direct Record work?
The video recorder compares the TV channel
selected on the TV set with its stored TV chan-
nels via the scart cable. If the same TV channel
is found, it switches the video recorder to the
corresponding programme number and starts
recording. Please do not change the TV chan-
nel on the TV set during the search so as not to
affect the process.
