Interests and Favorites

You have the choice to scan every channel when you "channel surf." But to help you locate channels and shows of specific interest to you, the receiver has an Interests menu that helps focus your channel surfing.

•By using the Interests menu, you can quickly locate programs according to a particular theme such as Movies, Pay-Per-View, Sports, Music/Radio, News/ Educaton or Network Series.

•You can also surf through four lists of favorite channels (Favorites A, B, C and D) and surf only the channels on these lists.

How to Display and Use the Interests Menu

•Press the INTERESTS key on the remote control. The Interests menu appears.

•To select an interest (for example, All Programs, Favorites A, B, C, D or Network Series, News/Education, Movies, Sports, Pay-Per-View, or Music/ Radio), highlight one of these options and press the ENTER key. The Guide will appear and display channels or programs that pertain to the interest you have selected. Remember that once you have selected one of the options (or interests) from the Interests menu:

A.The information you see in the Guide will be limited to programming that matches the interest you have selected. If there is no programming which matches the interest, a message will appear notifying you of this.

B.You will notice that while you are watching a program or channel, the left side of the header will display the interest you selected. If there is no programming matching the selected interest, a message will appear notifying you of this.

•Press the INTERESTS key again to display the Interests menu and change your selection.
