Changing Channels

There are three ways to change channels:

•Press the UP or DOWN ARROW buttons.

•Use the NUMBER PAD buttons.

• Press GUIDE and then select the channel from the Program Guide. See Changing the Channel in the Program Guide on page 49.

Using the Program Guide

The on-screen Program Guide provides a complete listing of the available channels and programs. You can use the Program Guide to change channels, to see what programs are scheduled, to set up timers, and to buy pay per view programs.

Tip: If the program is on a channel that is not part of your subscription, the channel will be shown with a red background.

The Program Guide shows which Favorites List is active. If the All Chan list is active, the Program Guide shows all of the channels available from DISH Network. If the All Sub list is active, the Program Guide displays only the channels in your subscription. When another list is active, the Program Guide displays only the channels in that list.

For more information, see Using Favorites Lists on page 52. The Program Guide shows programs that are on now and that are scheduled to come on several days in advance. The guide does not show programs that have ended.
