Use a disc that is compatible with high speed recording. Even if the disc is high speed

recording compatible, the maximum speed recording rating may not be possible due to the
condition of the disc.

It takes longer than normal to transfer (dub) many titles.

Panasonic DVD recorders that are not compatible with EP (8 hour) mode recording.

Some or all of the channels
display “No Listing”

For a newly installed unit, the TV Guide On Screen

TM

system may not have been given

enough time to download the initial data. This procedure can only occur when the unit is in
standby mode for a period of 24 hours. (During this time, do not turn on the unit as the
download will be interrupted.) Once the procedure takes place the phrase “No Listing” will be
replaced with program information.

The channel(s) in question was (were) recently turned “ON” (in the CHANNEL EDITOR

screen) however TV Guide On Screen

TM

system has yet to receive channel data for this

channel. Leave the unit in standby mode.

Immediately after beginning use there are several days of blank listings. You can display the

television program list for up to the next 8 days forward without any blank listings by
downloading program lists continuously over several days.

The unit was left turned on for an extended period of time and the TV Guide On Screen

TM

system was unable to receive television program list data. Press [

Í

DVD POWER] to set the

unit in standby mode when not in use.

During the data download the station from which data is downloaded had an unscheduled

power outage.

If using an off-air antenna, marginally poor reception can cause some of the data to be

missed.

If using a cable TV box, it was accidentally turned off. In installations using a cable TV box,

the box must be left on continuously.
