Using the Timers List

Special Considerations When Using Timers

For Locked Programs - You must enter the receiver password before you can create an
automatic timer. You can create a manual timer for a locked program without entering the
password. However, if you do this, when the timer operates, the receiver may display only an
error or password entry menu.
For Pay-Per-View Programs - You must order a Pay-Per-View program when you create a
timer for it.
For Blacked Out Programs - If you set a timer for a program that is blacked out in your area,
when the timer operates the receiver may display only an error.
