Setting the Clock

This DVD/VCR incorporates a 24-hour clock. The clock must
be set for the Automatic Timer Recording function to operate
correctly.
Your DVD/VCR is fitted with PDC (Refer to page 20). If the
PDC signal is available in your area, your DVD/VCR can get
the current time from your local PDC broadcast. It keeps
track of the time constantly referring to the time broadcasted
by your PDC broadcast. If you want to use this feature, refer
to "Auto Clock Setting" in the next section.
• Use the remote control for this procedure.

TUNING

Tuning of broadcast channels not already preset in the
DVD/VCR can be performed in two ways.

AUTOMATIC TUNING

• By "AUTOMATICALLY" tuning channels and placing
them in sequential order in the DVD/VCR's memory i.e.
the first channel found will be memorised into the
DVD/VCR's channel position 1, the second channel
found will be memorised into the DVD/VCR's channel
position 2 and so on.
• Execution of the "Automatic" tuning cancels all the pre-
set channels. DO NOT use this feature if you intend to
use some of the pre-tuned channels. Use the "Manual"
tuning function to tune in the additional channels you
require.
