Access Services and Programs
Access cable services and programs by pressing the following keys on the remote control:

and other services available from your cable service provider, such as video-on-demand and
pay-per-view programs.
• Arrows–Select a program in the schedule.

the on-screen guide or while viewing a program).

Record One Program While Watching
Another
When two of your favorite programs are scheduled at the
same time, you can record one program on the built-in DVR
while watching the other. Use the DVR keys on the remote
control to record programs or to play back recorded
programs.
Watch Two Programs at the Same Time
You do not need a special TV to watch two programs at the
same time. Use the picture-in-picture (PIP) keys on the remote
control, and you will see a PIP screen on your TV.
Stretch and Zoom Program
You can stretch and zoom SD or HD programs by pressing
the # key on the remote control.
Avoid Screen Burn-In!
Images such as letterbox bars or side bars, bright closed-captioning backgrounds, station logos,
or any other stationary images may cause the picture tube in your HDTV to age unevenly; this is
known as screen burn-in. Refer to the user’s guide that came with your HDTV for more
information.
WARNING:
Avoid screen burn-in!
Do not display the same fixed images on your HDTV screen for extended periods of
time.
