Your video recorder comes with the NexTView Link feature. This function simplifies the channel
installation procedure, dowloading them from a TV set fitted with the NexTView Link or similar
feature (Easy Link, Smart Link, Megalogic, etc.) and already installed. The channels downloaded in
this way preserve the same properties as your TV set (same number, same name, etc.).
ð 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,...). On
completion of download, the video recorder switches over to standby. Channel
installation is finished.
ð 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.
