Sony KP-51DS1U User Manual

Electronic Programme Guide (EPG)

Press the 

 button on the remote control to display the programme

 

guide on the screen.

Push the joystick to Z or z to highlight the programme column, then 
push to $ or 4 to select your desired programme.  

Press the OK button. If the programme is currently being broadcast, 
it will be displayed on your TV. If not, the TIMER menu will be 
displayed on the TV screen . 

At the bottom of the timer page you can see the symbols              
(back to EPG),                (to record a programme) or              (to set 
the programme to switch on automatically).

Push the joystick to Z or z to select one of these symbols then press 
the OK button to confirm your selection. The EPG appears on screen 
with the relevant icon appearing next to the programme you selected 
in step 2. 

If you wish to cancel a recording, select the relevant programme and 
press the OK button. A menu is displayed on screen requesting you 
to select Return if you wish to continue to record the programme or 
Delete

 if you wish to cancel the recording request.

After making your selection, press the OK button to confirm. The 
record icon disappears from the EPG if Delete was selected in step 6.

If you have finished viewing programmes on your TV, press the TV 

 button before the timer recording starts to leave your projection 

TV in standby mode for the timer settings to be activated. If, 
however, you wish to continue watching other programmes after 
setting the timer, you can do so by changing programmes in the 
normal way. If you are watching another programme when the timer 
is due to start, a display will appear on screen advising you that, if 
you change channels, you automatically cancel the recording.

If you do not wish to cancel or view the recording, press the TV 

 

button whilst one of the displays are still on screen to leave your 
projection TV in standby mode. The standby indicator on the front of 
the set will flash to show that the timer record operation is active. If, 
however, you choose to change programmes, you automatically 
cancel the recording.

Notes: •If your video recorder (VCR) is not Smartlink-compatible, you 

will need to set your VCR to switch on and off automatically 
after setting the timer on the EPG.

•If you want to change channel once a digital programme has 

started recording, select the channel by using the remote 
control buttons as normal. The Stop recording menu appears 
on the screen. Select Yes or No by pushing the joystick to $ or 
4

 , then press OK to confirm your choice.
