Tip: You may start
any timer one
minute early. But if
you set back-to-
back event timers
and the second one
starts early, the first
one will end early.
An event timer
cannot start early
for a Pay-Per-View
program. If you try
to set a timer for
overlapping events,
you will get an error
message.
Tip: Use the
Program Guide or
your printed
television guide
to see when the
program(s) starts
and stops —
before you go to
the Set Date/TIme
for a Manual
Timer.
