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 GUIDE Plus+ 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 3.
To clear the guide from your screen, press CLEAR or GUIDE on the remote control.
Next Steps
Now that you’ve finished the Interactive Setup, you’re ready to watch TV. This might be a good time
to program your remote control. The remote control that came with this TV can be programmed to
operate other components. Go to the next chapter to find out how to program your remote.
