To obtain more information about a particular program while viewing one of the various on-screen

guides, press the The INFORMATION Screen key. This screen is also displayed when

pressing the Done key on the remote control or front panel in

response to a message such as "Press View to order."

The INFORMATION screen offers the same program description explained earlier, and more. You can see displayed the program’s actual start time and duration, the program rating, and a variety of options associated with the selected program.

Many variations of button combinations exist. The button on the left side of the Things to Do area could be View, PreSelect, or DeSelect. Another button that could appear refers to pay per view programs

only. Unless your receiver is authorized to make such purchases this

The INFORMATION screenbutton will not be displayed. It could be Buy $ , Cancel Purchase, or Buy Options.

The following buttons may be available:

Done

When you highlight the Done button and press PreSelect, you will be returned either to the guide or to the channel offering a purchase.

View

After reading the program description and related information, you may choose to view it by

highlighting the View button and pressing Manual background. If the program is a PPV event, you may need to complete the purchase process (either on-screen or by calling DIRECTV) before the program can actually be viewed.

PreSelect

PreSelect is one of the handiest features of your DIRECTV PLUS System. You can use it to plan your evening or weekend viewing, then let the system do the rest. PreSelect will initiate a drop-down menu offering your PreSelect options.
