GOING TO AN INTERACTIVE WEB SITE

Interactive TV is more than viewing Web sites that relate to programs or commercials. Interactive TV lets you participate with the program you’re watching.

To go to an interactive TV Web site:

1When you see the i symbol on your screen, press the OK button on your remote control or RETURN on your keyboard.

The following panel appears:

2Select Go Interactive and press OK.

You’ll be taken to an interactive Web site related to the program you’re watching. There you can interact with the program while watching it on TV.

Express your opinion in an interactive site.
