THE MENU SYSTEM

What is a Menu?

The DSS® menu is a list of choices, just like a menu in a restaurant. And, just as a restaurant menu is divided into sections such as appetizers, entrees, and desserts, the on- screen menus are also separated into sections to help you find the information you need.

Your On-Screen Living Room

The first menu in this DSS® system looks like a living room. You might consider this your “home base” for customizing your DSS® system because you use the Living Room Main Menu to get to other parts of the system, such as the User Profiles menu or the Assistance menu.

Use the MENU/SELECT button to bring up the Living Room main menu, and then use Point and Select to choose a menu option.
