Connections & Setup
Tip
Leave your cable box turned ON to download program information.
Leave your VCR turned OFF to record programs.
Note: If the GUIDE Plus+ system can’t locate the correct code for the VCR, a list of troubleshooting instructions appears to help you before you try again.
•Try VCR configuration again: repeat VCR setup.
•Test alternate codes: tests selected brands and if this fails, the test continues with all codes in the system.
•Skip this step: the system won’t be able to automatically schedule programs to record on your VCR.
Step 4: Confirming Your Settings
1.Check to make sure all settings are complete and correct. If all settings are complete, highlight Yes, end setup and press OK. If your cable box and/or VCR code testing failed, you should see INCOMPLETE where the cable box and VCR codes are listed. Once setup is complete, additional screens appear.
If any settings are incomplete or incorrect, highlight No, repeat setup process and press OK. Follow the instructions on the screen.
2.You can choose to view a demo of the GUIDE Plus+ features, which may take a few minutes to load. If you don’t want to see the demo right now, press OK to watch TV.
What to Expect
The next time you turn on your TV, the GUIDE Plus+ system will appear on the screen. The following examples explain what you might see:
•If all of the program information has been sent to your TV, the GUIDE Plus+ system appears with all of your TV program listings.
•If the program information hasn’t been sent to your TV yet, an outline of the GUIDE (without TV program listings) will appear on the screen. Program information is usually sent to your TV at night.
•If the TV detected that you have multiple cable companies in your area, STEP 5: Choosing Your Channel Lineup appears.
Features of the GUIDE Plus+ system are explained in Chapter 2.
To clear the guide from your screen, press CLEAR or GUIDE on the remote control.
