However, the clock time, channel settings, and other menu settings are lost. As a result, when the power is supplied again to this VCR after the power failure, the following will take place. 1. This VCR starts the Plug & Play setting automatically to restore the clock time and channel setting. 2. If the clock time and channel setting are restored correctly, each timer program you have made will start at its start time unless its end time has elapsed. ● To timer-record cable channels received through a cable box, be sure to keep the cable box turned on.
