Getting Started

Welcome

Thank you for purchasing the Philips Magnavox Internet Terminal.

Before you use this product to access the Internet, you must first subscribe to the WebTV® Network. Subscribing is easy once you’ve connected your Internet Terminal.

This manual will help you connect the Internet Terminal and subscribe to the WebTV Network; it also describes the basic features of the Internet Terminal.

The WebTV Network is constantly changing to meet your needs. The screens you see once you’re connected to the WebTV Network may look different than the examples used in this manual. The appearance of the WebTV Network will change as new features become available to you.

WebTV Network Features

Explore - A directory of the most exciting Internet sites.

Email (electronic messages) - Exchange messages with members of any Internet service.

Search - An easy way to locate information on specific topics.

Favorites - Provides instant access to your favorite sites on the Internet.

Multiple accounts - Lets members of your household have private email addresses and Favorites folders.

SurfWatch and kid-friendly - Allow you to restrict access to email and sites on the Internet that contain mature material. These items will be available under User Restrictions when you add a user.

TV Listings - Provides TV programming information for your area (channel, time, and description of program).

WebPIP™ (Picture in Picture) - Enables you to watch TV and surf the Internet at the same time.

Around Town™ - Provides weather and entertainment information for your locale.

Screen saver - If you do not press any remote control buttons for a few minutes, a screen saver will appear. This reduces the possibility of TV pic- ture tube damage. (If an image remains on a TV screen for an extended period of time, the image may become permanently etched on your TV picture tube.)
