Panasonic PV-M2738 - Manual (Page 23)

In order for the Combination VCR to read the VCR Plus+ code, some setup is required. A Guide (VCR Plus+) channel
number is assigned to each local broadcast and cable station. Because this number sometimes differs from the channel
your TV receives the station on, it is necessary to program the Combination VCR with local channel information.
