Displaying On-screen Guides

Each time you press the remote control’s GUIDE button, a different type of program guide appears:

The Detail Guide

The Detail Guide shows six channels (four with the toolbar) in a time-and-channel format, with
program information for the highlighted program. A small window showing the program you
were watching before entering the program guides is displayed in the upper left hand corner
(you can preview other channels in the Detail Guide by highlighting channel numbers instead of
the program titles).

Notes: By default, the Detail Guide appears when you press GUIDE on the remote control. You can change the
default guide from the Detail Guide to the Grid Guide.

Select Personal Settings from the Main menu, then select the profile to be changed, then select Default Guide.
Use the remote control’s arrow buttons to highlight Grid Guide, then press the SELECT button to activate your
choice.

The Grid Guide

The Grid Guide shows nine channels (seven with the toolbar) in a time-and-channel format. A
small window showing the program you were watching before entering the program guides is
displayed in the upper left hand corner (you can preview other channels in the Grid Guide by
highlighting channel numbers instead of the program titles).

Getting Around In the Guides

This section describes how to change channels and move around a program guide.

Digit Buttons (0–9)

You can point quickly to any channel in the program guide by entering the channel number with
the digit buttons (0–9). For example, to point to channel 228, press the digits 2-2-8, on the
remote control.

Scrolling Channel By Channel

The programs that you see on the TV screen make up one section—or page—of the total program
guide. You can scroll one line at a time using the arrows: point to other times with the left and
right arrows; point to other channels with the up and down arrows.

Scrolling Page By Page

If you want to scroll up or down through the program guide faster, press the CH buttons on the
remote control. The highlight scrolls a page at a time.

Scrolling Forward and Reverse

To scroll forward one page at a time, press the remote control’s PLAY button while in DIRECTV
mode. To go forward or reverse by a 6-hour block of time, use the FORWARD and REVERSE
buttons on the remote control.

Note: Your digital satellite receiver can store up to seven days of programming information. Getting all this
information can take up to 12 hours to download.
