System
Setting up your recorder involves coordinating the TV channel
number (the number you turn to on your TV or recorder to watch
a program) with the guide channel (the number that’s assigned to
that channel in your TV program guide).
To find the guide channel numbers, look at the “Channel Line-
up Chart” in the program guide for your area that features VCR
PlusCode numbers.
Use the Channel Line-up Chart to check that the guide channel
numbers match the TV channel your recorder receives. If not,
you need to coordinate these numbers using the following
procedure. If the guide and TV channel numbers are the same,
you can skip this procedure.
