• See the following table for Host

Channels in your country. The table
may be updated from time to time.
For updates, see the GUIDE Plus+
website: www.europe.guideplus.com

• If your external receiver is “OFF”

when you try to receive data the
GUIDE Plus+ system cannot receive
any data.

• Scanning (automatic receiving of

data) will be interrupted by all other
functions, such as “recording” or
“watching”.

• All future downloads will happen

automatically.

Press ' / "  to select “Postal
Code”. Press SET/ENTER, then
press ' / " / \ / | to enter your
postal code. Then, using ' / " ,
select “External Receiver 1” and
set the details. Select (1) your
reception (terrestrial, cable or
satellite), (2) your provider, (3) the
brand of your external receiver and
(4) the terminal which your external
receiver is plugged into (SCART  2).

 If the external tuner changed
channels correctly, press ' / "  to
select “YES” and press SET/
ENTER. Then press GUIDE to
exit the setup menu.

• If the external receiver did NOT

change channels, or if your receiver
brand is not included in the on-screen
list, go to Alternate Setup (See page
48).

• The Recorder will now try to commu-

nicate with your external receiver via
the G-LINK cable. The display
message will ask you if the receiver
has changed to a specified channel.

• If certain channels are missing, or if

you see channels that you do not
receive, press '

"  to select a channel to

edit, and turn “ON” or “OFF” the
channels according to what you
receive in your home.

ITV is analogue only. Use Eurosport if you
are a SKY subscriber and you no longer
have a terrestrial aerial available.

• Even if you live in a country where there is

a Host Channel, if you cannot receive data
from any Host Channel, change the setting
of your country to “Other.” Scanning of the
Host Channel will not be started.

• If the Recorder programme number in the

Editor screen and that of the external
receiver are unmatched after the first TV
listings data download, please change the
unmatched programme number on the
Editor screen manually to match it with that
of the external receiver. Otherwise the
Recorder will not tune to the correct
programme number for the next TV listings
data download.

In some rare exceptions it might be best to
connect your equipment to two different
sources. For example you might want to use a
digital satellite or cable receiver for some
channels and an analogue terrestrial aerial for
other channels. Depending on your region it
might be necessary to identify your “Host
Channel” accordingly (see as well Step 4 and
Step 5).

• If you only have one wall outlet you

can either use a “splitter” or connect
your Recorder to the wall outlet and
your external receiver to the AN-
TENNA OUT jack of your Recorder.
There is a “loop through” between
ANTENNA IN and OUT and therefore
delivers the same result as a splitter.

• If you use two different sources (e.g. an

analogue terrestrial aerial and an external
receiver) it is possible that the GUIDE
Plus+ system is identifying the same
channel twice or two different host
channels. We recommend that you select
the host channel that is available through
the internal tuner.

• Make sure that your Host Channel is always

turned ON and the correct source and
programme number is displayed in the
“Editor” screen. Otherwise you will not be
able to receive data.

• When a timer recording is scheduled

during the download time of the TV listings
data, the data may not be downloaded
successfully. Especially between 3:00 AM
and 5:00 AM is the time slot for
downloading the data. So, it is
recommended that you do not set a timer
recording which overlaps with the above
time slot.

If your external receiver is not in the list or
your external receiver could not be controlled
properly by the Recorder, please try the
following:
1. At Step 3 of page 47, select “None” (at the

end of the list) for External Receiver Brand.

2. Press GUIDE to exit the Setup menu.
3. Tune your external receiver to your “Host

Channel” (see list of Host Channels in Step
5) and leave it “ON” overnight (the
Recorder must be on “STANDBY” over-
night).

4. After the overnight download has

completed, go back into the GUIDE Plus+
setup menu to repeat the installation of
your external receiver (the “Postal Code”
entry should be the same as you previously
entered). If the external receiver is still not
in the list or is not controlled properly by
the Recorder, please call Customer
Support to report the brand and model of
your external receiver.

Press ' / " / \ / |  to  select a
programme tile in the grid.

• At the right time, the Recorder will

tune to the correct channel and
record the selected programme.

• During the Timer Standby mode, you

cannot edit or add a timer programme. To
edit or add a timer programme, cancel
Timer Standby mode first.

during timer recording, the timer recording
is switched to a normal recording which will
not stop at the timer recording end time. To
stop the recording, press REC STOP.

feature is set with the following default
parameters:

the “Schedule” Area.

Operating the power source while TV
listings data is being downloaded
• Even when the power is off, during

download of TV listings data, the internal
state of the power source is on. When you
want to use the Recorder while TV listings
data is being downloaded, press OPER-
ATE to cause the STANDBY indicator of the
Recorder to be lit red. (It may take 1-2
minutes for the STANDBY indicator to be lit
red.) After the STANDBY indicator is lit red,
press OPERATE but once more. (The
download of TV listings data will be
suspended.)

This is the most convenient feature for Timer
Recording that the GUIDE Plus+ System
accommodates. The One-Button Record
feature is available anytime you can highlight
a programme tile. This can be in the Grid,
after a search for a certain category or in your
recommendations under My TV.

The operation method is the same for both
HDD and DVD.
• You can timer record up to 16 programmes

scheduled within a month, including VIDEO
Plus+ system and manual recording.

• You can consecutively record up to 12

hours to HDD.

Preparation for Timer Recording
• Check that the clock is displaying the

correct time.

• If the TIMER indicator on the front of the

Recorder is lit, press TIMER ON/OFF to
turn off the TIMER indicator and to set the
Timer Standby mode to off.
