Using the System

When an Event Timer Works

Only during the five minutes right before an event timer works, you’ll see a
small picture of a clock blinking on the TV screen. This clock goes away
when the program begins. While you see the clock, you can do either one of
the following:

Press the remote control CANCEL button to clear the clock from the
TV screen. This doesn’t change the timer; it will still work.

Press the remote control INFO button to see more information
on the event timer. If you do this, you’ll have these two choices:

Select the

OK

option to continue with the event

timer, or

Select the

Stop Timer

option to stop the event

timer.

Use Quick Record

You can use Quick Record to very quickly set a one-time, one-program DVR
Event Timer
or VCR Event Timer.

1. Highlight but don’t select a future program in the

Browse Banner

, in

the

Program Guide

or in a

Themes

list.

Note

: If you select a future program, you open a menu where you can

set an automatic event timer. This is almost as fast as Quick Record.

2. Press the RECORD button.

3. This opens a menu where you can set an event timer.

4. If you want to start the timer one minute early,

select the

Start 1 min. early

option.

Note

: This lets you make sure the timer records a program’s start.

Note

: You can start any timer (except one for a pay per view program)

one minute early. But, if you set a timer that works right after another
timer and the second one starts early, the first one will end early.

5. Select the

DVR

or

VCR

option.

Tip: You can
also press
the

SELECT

button to see
more
information
about the
event timer.

Tip: Quick
Record is the
fastest and
easiest way to
record one
program once.
Just find the
program you
want to record,
press

RECORD

and

then you’re
done. It’s that
simple!
