For the following steps we assume that you have just connected your video recorder for the
very first time.
To make tuning TV stations an easy task your VCR incorporates the Automatic Channel
Memory System (ACMS). This system will automatically tune and store TV channels in
VIDEO Plus+ order to your VCR. While this is happening the clock (date & time) in the
video recorder will be set automatically.
Make sure that you have
correctly installed your
VCR and tuned a video
channel on your TV as
described earlier in this
book.
Press POWER to turn on
your VCR.
If you have a satellite
receiver make sure that it is
connected to your VCR,
switched on and Sky News
has been selected.

this is correct it may
mean that your VCR is
already tuned.

process.

The ACMS system relies on
signals transmitted by the TV
Station, for auto clock setting
and station identification. If
the TV broadcast signal is
weak or fluctuates your VCR
may not detect the necessary
information and will be unable
to identify station names and
sort them correctly.
To overcome this problem
please turn to the MANUAL
TUNING section of this book
on page 13 to 14.
