Tips

The GUIDE Plus+ system automatically comes up when you use the TV or ON/OFF button on the remote to turn on the TV. You can turn off this feature by selecting Setup from the GUIDE Plus+ menu, selecting Options, then setting Auto Display to Off.

Also, since the program information provided by the GUIDE Plus+ system is based on your locale, you will need to run Setup again if you move to a different ZIP or postal code.

About the GUIDE Plus+ System

The GUIDE Plus+ system is a no-fee, on-screen program guide that lists TV schedules for your area and allows your TV direct control of a cable box and/or VCR. You must first set up the GUIDE Plus+ system in order to view this on-screen program guide (see Chapter 1 for details).

There are six sections of the GUIDE Plus+ system:

A video window

Blue and Green Action buttons at the top of the screen

Program information

Promotional information

Channel listings

Menu options (Listings, Sort, News, Messages, Promotions, Schedule, Channels, Setup)

Notes: If you have cable and air signals, connect cable to Antenna A. If you have air signal only, connect it to Antenna A. Antenna A is where the GUIDE Plus+ system gets its Listings.

Whenever the GUIDE Plus+ system is activated in the TV, the last- viewed channel of Antenna A appears in the video window.

The GUIDE Plus+ system screens illustrated in this book are representations of what you are likely to see. Not all channels, programs, and GUIDE Plus+ information depicted will be available in your area. New features and options can be downloaded to the GUIDE Plus+ system, so these are subject to change also. The GUIDE Plus+ system doesn’t display program listings for satellite TV.
