7-3. Moving through the Advanced Program Guide™

The Advanced Program Guide™ is operated based on a simple and straightforward “Highlight and Select” process.

1. Use “DEFG” on your remote control to navigate the guide screen.

2.Press “ ” to select or execute the highlighted menu or function.

The on-screen guide shows you program listings for six channels within a one and one half hour time slot, for example: 6:00-7:30. In order to view a list of future programs or other channels, you may continuously press “DEFG” to scroll horizontally or vertically. This may take a while to reach a specific channel or program, if the channel or program is listed far from the current- ly highlighted program. The Advanced Program Guide thus offers you shortcuts to minimize your effort in navigating channels and time slots.

Line Scrolling

You can reach other time slots or channels that are currently hidden from the screen using the arrow buttons “DEFG”. Move horizontally to reach other time slots and move vertically to reach other channels.

Page Scrolling

You can move through channels faster by scrolling page-by-page with the PAGE E/D buttons on the remote control. Each button stroke scrolls one page up or down.

Date Scrolling

Pressing the CC button on the remote control to jump to the Date Change Box. Alternatively, you can move the highlight to the Date Change Box and change the date to jump to the time slot of that day. Pressing “FF” button will show you a previous 6 hours guide.

NOTE

Press the GUIDE button to return immediately to the guide menus, the left-most column of the guide screen. This is very useful when the highlight is located far from the current time and you want to return to the guide menus.
