Displaying On-screen Guides

Each time you press the remote control’s GUIDE button, a different type of program guide appears:

The Detail Guide

The Detail Guide shows six channels (four with the toolbar) in a time-and-channel format, with program information for the highlighted program. A small window showing the program you were watching before entering the program guides is displayed in the upper left hand corner (you can preview other channels in the Detail Guide by highlighting channel numbers instead of the program titles).

Notes: By default, the Detail Guide appears when you press GUIDE on the remote control. You can change the default guide from the Detail Guide to the Grid Guide.

Select Personal Settings from the Main menu, then select the profile to be changed, then select Default Guide. Use the remote control’s arrow buttons to highlight Grid Guide, then press the SELECT button to activate your choice.

The Grid Guide

The Grid Guide shows nine channels (seven with the toolbar) in a time-and-channel format. A small window showing the program you were watching before entering the program guides is displayed in the upper left hand corner (you can preview other channels in the Grid Guide by highlighting channel numbers instead of the program titles).
