Getting the Most Out of It

TV station call signs are listed vertically according to their channel number. In grids, the horizontal axis represents time in 2-hour slots. In lists, time slots are displayed in 30-minute slots.

Color coding is used for the various program genres.

Program information: You can get additional program information by choosing the highlighted program, or choosing OK. See ‘Consulting Program Information’ below.

Watch button : You can watch a highlighted program on television (if it is now playing) by choosing the Watch button. See ‘Watching a Program from EPG’ below.
