Helpful Hints (see the Viewer's Guide for more information)

Select Begin! to start Guided Setup

Phone

What if your phone jack isn’t close to the TiVo DVR? Use the included 25-foot phone cord to complete Guided Setup. Afterwards, you’ll be able to connect your DVR to a home network and use a shared broadband Internet connection instead of a phone line to make connections to the TiVo service. See the TiVo Viewer’s Guide for details.

Having trouble with the Guided Setup phone calls? Go back to the Phone Dialing Options screen and try these steps: If you have call waiting, take out any prefix you inserted. Turn off dial tone detection. Turn off phone availability detection. (See the TiVo Viewer’s Guide for details.)

If you need to use your phone while a Guided Setup call is in progress, pick up the phone, hang up, and

wait about 45 seconds. When you pick up the phone again, the line should be free. You can complete Guided Setup later.

Channels

During Guided Setup, you select a channel lineup. A channel lineup is the set of channels you subscribe to–like “Digital ExtendedSc Basic” or “DIRECTV-Boston, MA.” If you aren’t sure of your lineup, check your channel lineup card, your cable bill, or make your best guess. Guided Setup includes a Channels You Receive screen where you can check to make sure that channel numbers shown match your lineup. If your guess was wrong, go back and select a different lineup.

You can use the Channels You Receive screen to remove check marks for channels you don't receive or never watch. (You can change your channel selections later, even after you complete Guided Setup.)

Account and Billing

You can view, change, and manage your TiVo account information online using Manage My Account. Activate TiVo service, purchase Home Media Option, name your DVRs, and more! If you want to change your billing option, or update your address or credit card information at any time, visit www.tivo.com/manage.
