No need to key in times or dates, it’s all done using a clear on-screen programme schedule.
You can even record two channels at the same time. All your recordings are stored on your
Digital TV Recorder’s hard drive, which means an end to piles of DVDs.

the safety section on page 18-19 before using your Digital TV Recorder. This appliance is for
