Using the System

Set a Manual Event Timer

Use a manual event timer to manually set the start and stop time of a
recording. This is useful for recording all of a sports event, even if it goes
into overtime. Or, you can record part of a program, or several programs one
after the other.

Notes:

Before you set a manual timer, use the

Program Guide

or program lists

to find the start and end times you want to set.

You can’t set a manual timer for a pay per view program.

You must set the end time after the start time, and set the end time at
least one minute later than the start time.

Here’s what to do:

1. Press the MENU button.

2. Select the

Timers

option.

This opens the

Event Timer Management

menu.

3. Select the

Create

option.

This opens the

Create a Manual Event Timer

menu.

Tip: You can
use Event
Timers to
record
programs
automatically,
or you can set
a manual
event timer to
record several
programs that
are on one
after another
on the same
channel.
