11 Timer Presetting Presetting TV programs using the timer Using the menu, you can easily preset TV programs for watching later (auto channel select), recording with a D-VHS recorder, or recording via the supplied VCR controller. With the power to the system left on, the Auto Channel Preset automatically selects the preset TV program when its on-air time comes. Then you will not miss an important TV program when you are enjoying another TV program. For the connections with a D-VHS recorder, see pages 54 and 55. For the connections with the supplied VCR controller, see page 59. • You can make up to 32 presettings in total. • In steps 4 to 8, you can also press / to move the cursor. 1 Press HOME MENU. 2 Select "Timers".
