Using the System

Tip: To quickly go to any menu option with a number next to it, just press the numbers on the remote that match that number.

HIGHLIGHTING A MENU OPTION

To highlight a menu option, use the remote control ARROW buttons to move the on-screen highlight to the menu option. When you do this, the option appears lighter than the other options. The highlight is like the one that you may have seen on a computer screen.

Compare the highlighted menu option with the non-highlighted menu option in the previous example.

SELECTING A MENU OPTION

When you select a menu option, that option takes effect right away. You can

select a menu option in either of two ways:

•If the option has a number next to it, press the number on the remote control number pad that matches this number. If you do this, you do not need to highlight the option first.

•Move the highlight to the menu option using the remote control Arrow buttons. Then press the remote control SELECT button.

LISTS OF CHOICES IN THE MENUS

When you make a choice in a list, the receiver does not apply the change

until you select the Save or OK option. If you do not want to save any changes, select the Cancel option to discard all the changes made in the menu.

There are two types of lists:

•A single choice list allows you to select only one choice at a time. If you select another choice, your previous choice is deselected.

•A multiple choice list allows you to select more than one choice at one time. If you select another choice, your previous choice(s) stays selected.

HIGHLIGHTING A CHOICE IN A MENU LIST

Use the remote control ARROW buttons to move the highlight to the desired item in the list. The black arrows on the list show where you can move the highlight.

SELECTING A CHOICE IN A MENU LIST

To select a choice in a list, highlight the choice and then press the remote control SELECT button. Make sure you select the Save or OK option to save your choice. Select the Cancel option to discard your choice.
