3. Highlight the channel to which you have to tune your TV in order to see cable programming, and press OK (a screen appears reminding you to connect your G- LINK cable to your TV and cable box).

Notes: Channel 03 is the most common.

Choose Video1/AUX if your cable box is connected to your TV with audio/video cables instead of a coaxial cable. Go to page 7 for pictures of these cables.

4. Highlight your brand of cable box, and press OK.

If your brand isn’t listed, highlight Not Listed and press OK.

 

5. Make sure your cable box is on.

 

Tune the cable box to channel 02 (use the remote

 

control that came with your cable box, or press the

 

channel buttons on the cable box).

 

Press OK (the GUIDE Plus+ system starts testing

 

codes).

 

Important Note: When code testing is in

 

progress, don’t touch your TV, VCR, cable box

 

or any of the remote controls for these

 

products.

 

6. Look at your cable box. If it is still on and changed to

 

channel 09, the test was successful. Highlight Yes,

 

and press OK (STEP 3: Configuring for a VCR

 

appears).

 

If your cable box didn’t change to channel 09 or

 

turned itself off, you have two choices: No and Test

 

this code again.

 

Test this code again: If you think the TV, the

 

cable box, or any of the remote controls might

 

have been touched or bumped during the test,

 

highlight Test this code again and press OK (the

 

GUIDE Plus+ system runs the same set of codes).

 

No: If you don’t think the test was interrupted,

 

highlight No and press OK (GUIDE Plus+ system tests

 

the next code).

 

Repeat the previous instructions until the TV finds the

 

correct cable box code. Follow the instructions on the

 

screen.

 

Note: If the TV can’t find your cable box

 

code, a troubleshooting checklist appears.

 

Carefully review each checklist and follow

 

the instructions on the screen.
