PROGRAMME REMINDERS
Programme reminders can be set to signal that a
programme is about to start when you are watching
another channel. A reminder is set from the
Electronic Programme Guide screen.
Press the [GUIDE] key to display the EPG screen
and press [RIGHT] to display the next programme
details in the text window and highlight the name of
the next programme in the list of channels. Press
[SELECT] when a programme you want to watch is
highlighted and the reminder icon is displayed
against that programme's name.
You can exit the EPG screen in the normal way -
pressing [GUIDE], [MENU]. Later, shortly before the
programme is due to start, the receiver will display
a reminder on the screen over the picture of the
channel being viewed.
Use the [LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys to highlight the YES
or NO buttons as appropriate and press [SELECT].
If you select the YES button, the receiver switches
over to the reminder channel.
Note: Reminder events are ignored if any timer
event is active at that time.

the Timer menu screen. Up to five separate timer

To set an event, highlight its mode button using the
[UP] or [DOWN] keys and press [SELECT] to
display the timer entry window. Here the five
settings of channel name, start time, end time, date
and frequency mode can be set. You can move
freely between each setting using the [UP] and
[DOWN] keys. The channel name is set using the
[LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys to display the channel which
broadcasts the programme to be recorded. The start
time, end time and date are each set with the
number keys on the remote control in 24-hour
format. The frequency mode determines how often
the receiver operates this event and is set with the
[LEFT] or [RIGHT] keys to be either Once, Daily,
or Weekly.
Hint
If an invalid number for the start or end times
or the date is entered, the highest valid number
is automatically entered in its place. So,
entering 28:30 as the time will automatically
change to 23:30, and a date of 15:14:2002 will
change to 15:12:2002.
Pressing [MENU] or [SELECT] returns to the Timer
screen with the settings in place in the timer event
list. The event mode is automatically set to Active
and you can now return to normal viewing (press the
[MENU] keys) and at the appointed time the
receiver will switch over to the required channel and
at the end of the event, switch the receiver to
standby.
