DIRECTV® PROGRAMMING GUIDE (CONT’D)

WHAT’S IN THE GUIDE

The Guide shows the programming available for a 1 1/2 hour period. Programs you can tune to are determined by settings you make in Menu mode. For example, if you set maturity rating at PG-13, you will not be able to tune to programs with higher maturity ratings such as R without first entering an access code if you have locked the system (see page 37).

The Guide also displays network channel information in the banner. When you are displaying programming for the current time, press the ◀ button, the highlight will shift to the channel list and display the selected channel's information in the banner. Long channel information is available when you press INFO. To redisplay program information, press the ▶ button.
