Timer Recording (Standard/
EPG)

You can set the timer for a total of thirty
programmes.
There are two methods to set the timer: the
standard method and the EPG method.
• Standard: Set the date, time, and programme

position of the programme manually. This
method allows you to set the timer up to one
month in advance.

• EPG: Set a programme to be recorded based on

the information provided by the EPG (Electronic
Programme Guide) (page 48). This method
allows you to set the timer up to 8 days from the
current time (depending on programme
availability from the broadcaster).
