How do I watch one channel

and record another?

To watch live TV on one channel while the HUMAX DVD Recorder records another, put the Recorder into Standby mode. To do this, press the TiVo button on the Recorder’s remote. Select Messages & Setup, then Standby. Then use your TV’s remote to change channels. Because this signal simply passes through the Recorder, it has no TiVo service functionality (so you can’t pause or rewind live TV ).

To watch video from the Recorder again, press the TiVo button on the Recorder’s remote, then press the Input, Source, or TV/Video button on your TV remote or TV until you see TiVo Central®.

Connect the Coaxial RF cable coming from the wall to the RF In jack on the Recorder.

Connect a Coaxial RF cable from the RF Out jack on the Recorder to the Antenna/RF In jack on your TV.

Connect a Composite A/V cable from the Audio/Video Output jacks on the Recorder to the Audio/Video Input jacks on your TV.

Connect the phone cord (see page 8).

Plug in all power cords and turn on your TV. You may have to find the correct TV input setting by pressing the Input or TV/Video button on your TV’s remote control until you see the Welcome screen. (For more help, see page 131.)

Once you see the Welcome screen, the final steps are to activate the TiVo service and complete Guided Setup. If you need help, see Chapter 2.
