/
day every week.
• No record icon – Don’t set a recording.

The program will still be recorded if it starts any time up to 
the midway point of the originally scheduled program. For 
example, up to 9:15 for a 9:00 to 9:30 program.
Note that setting a program to record in this way will result in 
a recording using all the default options.
If you want to set a recording using settings other than the 
default, use the panel menu, as described next.
NOTE
• When TV Guide On Screen™ is not being displayed, you can 
record a program simply by pressing the 
REC button on the 
remote. Press the 
REC button to record the program once. 
Recording begins immediately. If the program is listed in the 
TV Guide On Screen™, recording ends at the end of the 
program. If the program is not listed in the TV Guide On 
Screen™, recording continues for 30 minutes.
• When TV Guide On Screen™ is not displayed, pressing the 
REC button more than once does nothing.

program you want to record and press 
 REC (as described 
above), but if you want to set the recording options to anything

or auto-tune reminder, you will be alerted to this. You can select 
to record the conflicting program, or cancel the recording. The 
following screens appear depending on whether it will override 
a scheduled recording or reminder.
