receiver and you want to record using the GUIDE

connect the set top box controller.
• Do not operate your set top box receiver just
before or during a timer recording. This may
prevent the accurate recording of a programme.
You can use the GUIDE Plus+ system to set
the timer to record a programme up to seven
