rect time.With this DVD/VCR, you can pre-programme up to

What is 'VPS/PDC'?
'VPS' (Video Programming System)/ 'PDC' (Programme Delivery

scheduled, the DVD/VCR will turn on and off at the correct time.
What do I need to know about 'VPS/PDC'?
Usually theVPS or PDC time is the same than the start time. But
if your TV guide shows aVPS or PDC time which is different from
the programme’s scheduled start time, e.g. 20.10 (VPS/PDC
20.14), you must enter theVPS/PDC time exact to the minute. If
you want a start time different from theVPS/PDC time, you must
