When tuning the video recorder, it is essential that channels are stored in the correct order e.g.
BBC 1 on number 1, BBC 2 on number 2, so that the accurate timer recordings can be made.
In very isolated cases two of these programmes may be transposed. If this happens it is simply
a matter of retuning the two affected programmes.
To check the automatic tuning of the channels, go to page 5.
