NOTE
If using this function for recording, make sure to set the
timer of your recording equipment as well.
Do not switch channels while recording using this
function.
This function cannot be set for locked services or when
Parental lock applies. (See pages 19 and 22.)
Up to 8 events can be preset using the Timer function.
You can choose whether or not the screen switches on
when the timer event begins. See
Rec screen status
on
page 14. This is so that if you are using the timer to make
a recording to your VCR or other device, the TV screen
will not switch on unless you want it to.
If you are watching another event, an alarm message
displays on the screen a few seconds before the preset
time.
To cancel the preset, select the event to delete, press
GREEN
(Delete Timer), press
◀

to select “Yes”, and
then press
OK

An alert message displays when the preset events
overlap one another.
