The Electronic Program Guide
■In the filter settingsyou can select the genre, date and time to obtain information about programs in the future.
You can choose a day and the time of the day (morning, afternoon, evening and night) from dropdown lists or you
can set the exact time with the +and –buttons.
If you tap the button, the EPG data will automatically display the programs currently playing of the
genre(s) you have selected.
■In the program overviewthe list of programs that meet your selection criteria, which you defined in the upper
part of the screen, appears.
■The detailed information for the selected program is displayed in the left part of the screen: subject, actors, start
and end time, and so on.
For example, tap the Movies button and select Wednesday Evening, 8:00 PM in the filter settings. A list of movies that
are playing at that time on Wednesday will appear in the program overview. When you select one of the movies in the
list, a detailed description will appear in the left part of the EPG.
The EPG has two power features:
The Watch Feature
When you select a program in the program overview, you can immediately surfto this program with the button.
This Watch button only appears when you select a program that is currently playing on TV.
The SmartSurfer
When you are displaying a list of programs that are currentlyplaying in the program overview, the buttons
appear. With these SmartSurfbuttons you can easily surf through the programs in the list. For example: if you want to
watch sports but not drama or home shopping, then tap “sports” and flip through only what you want to see: football,
soccer, baseball, tennis, car racing. With the SmartSurf buttons your TV will simply surf through the sports shows that
are on TV and it will skip channels that do not broadcast sports shows, even during commercial breaks.
