Automatic channel search
In each region,TV stations are broadcast on different channels.Your DVD recorder cannot be
factory-set to receive the TV channels of your area.You will have to set up the channels by
following the automatic procedure recommended below.
Your DVD recorder is equipped with the AV Link function. This function simplifies channel set-up by
downloading them from an AV Link or similar television set (Easy Link, Smart Link, Megalogic, etc.) which is
already set up. The channels downloaded in this way keep the same characteristics as those of your TV set
(same number, name, etc.).Your DVD recorder’s AV Link downloading function is enabled (factory setting).
When first turning on the DVD recorder, if the television is turned on, it will download the channels already
installed in your television set. If you wish to de-activate this function, see page 65.
