Using the System
Number Pad Buttons
When watching a program or with the Program Guide open, use these buttons to enter a channel number to change to that channel.
•When the Program Guide is open, you can skip ahead and then back a number of hours. Just enter the number you want to skip ahead (or back), and then press the RIGHT (or LEFT) ARROW button.
•Use these buttons to enter menu option numbers instead of highlighting the option and then pressing the SELECT button.
•Use these buttons to enter numbers in a menu:
•Highlight the place where you want to enter the first number, and press the appropriate number buttons on the remote.
•Use the LEFT or RIGHT ARROW button to move the highlight to the next place where you want to enter a number. When you are done entering numbers, press SELECT.
•Use the letters above the NUMBER PAD buttons while in the Search menu. For example, when looking for the channel and times to watch Rudy Fremmel Presents, you press 7 three times for an R, 8 two times for a U, 3 one time for a D, and 9 three times for a Y to spell the word “Rudy” (see Using Themes and Search on page 59).
