CHAPTER 4 : Using the Channel Pilot
Channel Pilot displays the same information as the Channel Guide but in a different form. The main purpose of the Channel Pilot is to be able to acquire programme information on the current and next programmes on every channel very quickly, while being able to watch the selected programme at the same time. The Channel Pilot can also be very useful when you want to know about additional information on the current or upcoming programmes immediately.
