7Using the TV Guide On Screen® interactive program guide

The TV Guide On Screen® system is a free, interactive, on-screen program guide built in to your Toshiba TV that lists schedules and information for TV programs in your area.

Note: Over-the-air or cable access to stations carrying TV Guide On Screen® data is required for the TV Guide On Screen® system to operate. The TV Guide On Screen® system does not work with satellite programming. Toshiba does not provide the TV Guide On Screen® data; rather, such data is provided by a third party, which is responsible for its accuracy and availability. Additionally, occasional compatibility issues may exist between the TV Guide On Screen® system contained in your TV and the data provided by the third party. If you experience any performance issues with your TV Guide On Screen® system, please contact Toshiba Consumer Solutions by calling (800) 631-3811 or by visiting http://www.tacp.com/customersupport/contact.asp.
