Recording Programmes
1 Press the button on the remote control to display the
EPG on the TV screen.
2 Press the B or b buttons to highlight the 'programme'
column then press the V or v button to select your
desired programme.
3 Press the OK button. If the programme is currently being
broadcast, it will be displayed on your TV. If not, the
'TIMER' menu will be displayed on the TV screen.
4 At the bottom of the timer page you can see the symbols
(back to EPG), (to record a programme) or
(to set the programme to switch on automatically).
5 Press the B or b buttons to select one of these symbols
then press the OK button to confirm your selection. The
EPG appears on screen with the relevant icon appearing
next to the programme you selected in step 2.
6 If you wish to cancel a recording, select the relevant
programme and press the OK button. A menu is displayed
on screen requesting you to select 'Return' if you wish to
continue to record the programme or 'Delete' if you wish
to cancel the recording request.
7 After making your selection, press the OK button to
confirm. The record icon disappears from the EPG if
'Delete' was selected in step 6.
8 If you have finished viewing programmes on your TV,
press the button before the timer recording starts to
leave your TV in standby mode for the timer settings to
be activated. If, however, you wish to continue watching
other programmes after setting the timer, you can do so
by changing programmes in the normal way. If you are
watching another programme when the timer is due to
start, a display will appear on screen advising you that, if
you change channels, you automatically cancel the
recording.
9 If you do not wish to cancel or view the recording, press
the button whilst one of the displays are still on
screen to leave your TV in standby mode. The standby
indicator on the front of the TV will flash to show that the
timer record operation is active. If, however, you choose
to change programmes, you automatically cancel the
recording.
Notes: If your video recorder (VCR) is not Smartlink-
compatible, you will need to set your VCR to switch
on and off automatically after setting the timer on
the EPG. If you want to change channel once a
digital programme has started recording, select the
channel by using the remote control buttons as
normal. The message 'STOP RECORDING' will be
displayed on screen. Either do nothing to allow the
recording to continue or select the required channel
once more while the message is still displayed on
screen. The recording will then be cancelled.
