The number of stations automatically stored
by the DVD-VCR depends on the number
of stations that it has found
The time and date are set automatically
from the broadcast signal If the signal is
weak or ghosting occurs, the time and date
may not be set automatically In this case,
they should be set manually (refer to page
18)
Once the auto scanning procedure has
finished, some stations may have been
stored more than once; select the stations
with the best reception and delete the ones
no longer required (refer to page 22)
