THE MAILBOX

The mailbox shows you messages that are sent—or “mailed”— from your program providers. For example, you may receive a message calling your attention to a new service.

HOW TO TELL WHEN YOU HAVE MAIL

There are two ways to tell if you have mail, depending on whether the DSS® receiver is turned on or off.

•If the DSS® receiver is turned on, the mail icon in the channel banner is highlighted.

•If the DSS® receiver is turned off, the power light on the front panel of the receiver flashes.

CHECKING YOUR MAIL

Select Mailbox on the Main menu or channel banner to view your mail.

1.Point to a message and press MENU•SELECT. The message is opened for you to read.

Mail provides the latest information from program providers.

2.Press MENU•SELECT again to close the letter.

After you read a message and want to erase it, point to Erase Message and press MENU•SELECT. When you exit the display screen, messages not erased are saved in memory.
