MORE FEATURES

Using Fetch

Press the FETCH button on the remote to bring up the current channel list. Then Point and Select a channel from the fetch list (just as you would from the Grid Guide).

The Fetch menu gives you a logo-based channel list.

The Mailbox

The mailbox shows you messages that are sent—or “mailed”— from your program providers. For example, you may receive a message calling your attention to a new service.

How to tell when you have mail

There are two ways to tell if you have mail, depending on whether the DSS® receiver is turned on or off.

•If the DSS® receiver is turned on, a mail icon appears in the upper right corner of the channel marker.

•If the DSS® receiver is turned off, the power light on the front panel of the receiver flashes.

Is your ON/OFF Light Flashing?

Don’t worry, your receiver’s not broken. It means that you have mail.
