Using the System
When an Event Timer Works
Only during the five minutes right before an event timer works, you’ll see a
small picture of a clock blinking on the TV screen. This clock goes away
when the program begins. While you see the clock, you can do either one of
these things:
• Press the remote control CANCEL button to clear the clock from the TV
screen. This doesn’t change the timer; it will still work.
• Press the remote control INFO button to see more information on
the event timer. If you do this, you’ll have these two choices:
• Select the
OK option to continue with the event
timer, or
• Select the
Stop Timer option to stop the event
timer.
Use Quick Record
You can use Quick Record to very quickly set a one-time, one-program PVR
Event Timer or VCR Event Timer.
1. Highlight but don’t select a future program in the
Browse Banner, in the
Program Guide or in a Themes list.
Note: If you select a future program, you open a menu where you can set
an automatic event timer. This is almost as fast as Quick Record.
2. Press the RECORD button.
3. This opens a menu where you can set an event timer.
4. If you want to start the timer one minute early,
select the
Start 1 min. early option.
Note: This lets you make sure the timer records a program’s start.
Note: You can start any timer (except one for a pay per view program)
one minute early. But, if you set a timer that works right after another
timer and the second one starts early, the first one will end early.
5. Select the
DVR or VCR option.
Tip: Quick
Record is the
fastest and
easiest way to
record one
program once.
Just find the
program you
want to record,
press
Record
and then
you’re done.
It’s that simple!
