FEATURES

There are lots of features with your new AOLTV service. This chapter explains some of the most important functions so you can become an expert fast. You can also find information online at Keyword: Help. Or, click Help & Setup on the Main menu as explained in Additional Help, page 26.

MAIN MENU

The Main menu appears when you click the AOLTV logo in the upper left corner of your screen or when you press MENU on the remote or keyboard. You don’t have to be signed on to see the Main menu. If what you want to do requires signing on, clicking that choice directs you to sign on automatically.

From the Main menu, you can use the functions of the AOLTV service. E-mail, Buddy List, chat, pictures, and the World Wide Web are just a click or two away. Here are all the services you can use:

Guide: A complete program guide lists all of the pro- grams you can view. Details are on page 25.

AOLTV Channels: Organizes TV-related information and interactive content into 11 broad categories includ- ing News, Networks, Sports, and Movies so you can find relevant, interesting stories faster.

Go To: Type a keyword or Web page address and go straight to it, or search for a site you’re interested in.

Mail: Write e-mail to your friends, and read messages they send you.

Buddy List: Shows you a list of friends who are currently online and allows you to send them Instant Messages as described below.

Instant Message: The Instant Message feature lets you have one-on-one, real time, private chats with other AOL members or non-AOL members using the AOL Instant Messenger™ service.

Pictures: View online pictures from the film you devel- oped, or pictures friends or family have sent you. Film must be developed by a participating photo developer.

Favorites: Save favorite TV channels and Web sites and return to places you’d like to visit again.

Chat: Start or join a chat group online and talk in real time to other AOL members. When you’re watching TV, you can automatically join a chat related to the program or topic you’re watching. You can also participate in AOL’s other chat rooms where members are discussing issues of interest to you. AOLTV chat rooms are gener- ally not affiliated with TV programming.

Help & Setup: Learn how AOLTV service areas work and what AOLTV features can do for you. You can also change billing information, preferences, and Parental Control settings.

Sign On/Sign Off: Depending on whether you’re cur- rently online, you can sign on or sign off.

USING KEYWORDS

A keyword is a word or phrase that identifies an area of the AOLTV service. Keywords make it possible for you to jump around quickly online, without having to remember exactly how you got to a certain area. Some useful keywords are noted in this User Manual, and more appear in online Help & Setup.

Using a keyword is simple. Press the Go button on the wire- less keyboard. Then, type the word in the text box that appears and click Go. To look through a complete list of AOLTV keywords, go to Keyword: Keyword.

NOTE: Some keywords on the AOL service might not be available on the AOLTV service.
