Automatic channel search
If your television set does not have a Scart socket, first carry out the modulator settings and then
the television settings (see page 8) before you start the automatic channel set-up.

Switch on the television.

Press the VCR key on the remote control.

Switch on your video recorder, using either the remote control key
B
or the appropriate
key (ON/STANDBY) on the video recorder front side.
When switching on the video recorder for the first time, a language selection menu
comes up. Should it not appear, press the MENU key.

Using the
C
or

The Country menu comes up.

Press the
C
or

Your video recorder comes with the NexTView Link feature. This function simplifies the
channel set-up procedure, as the channels already set up on a TV set fitted with the NexTView
Link or similar feature (Easy Link, Smart Link, Megalogic, etc.) can be downloaded to the video
recorder. The channels downloaded this way to the video recorder keep the same properties as
on your TV set (same number, same name, etc.).
If your TV set is fitted with the NexTView Link function or similar, the video recorder
automatically initiates channel download once you have selected the country. You can
view channel download on the video recorder display (Pr1, Pr2, Pr3…). On completion of
download, the video recorder switches over to standby. Channel set-up is achieved.
When your television set is not fitted with the NexTView Link or any similar feature, a
message tells you that your video recorder is searching and storing the channels you can
receive in your region. Keep patient until a message informs you that your channels are
stored.

Press the
B
key to sort your channels.
The
ORGANISER
menu comes up.
Sorting the channels
The automatic channel set-up assigns the numbers to the channels in a predefined order. These
numbers may therefore not match the actual channel numbers. Should this be the case, change
these numbers by carrying out the instructions below. For easy channel identification, we suggest
that you have a TV magazine at hand.
9a
If the proposed channel number matches the displayed picture, press
B
to pass on to the
next channel.
9b
If the proposed channel number does not correspond to the picture that you see, select the
Swap with PR line using the
▼
key.
10
Using the number keys, enter the correct channel number or select it with keys
C
or
B
.
11
Validate your choice using the OK key.
When the picture of a channel is of poor quality or encoded, try out the fine tuning feature. Refer
to page 7 (section New or encoded channel, step 9).
The VCR is not pre-set to receive the channels of your region. Thus, you must set them up
yourself by carrying out the automatic channel set-up procedure described below.
