Questions about Channels
Can I watch one channel while recording from another?
• Yes. If you have cable without a cable box or antenna you can split the signal with an
RF splitter. See your Installation Guide for instructions. (You will not have TiVo
functionality on the channels you watch using an RF cable that goes directly to your
TV.) Also, you can always watch any program stored in Now Playing while the
recorder is recording a program.
I can’t get the channel to change.
If you use cable with no cable box:
• Be sure that you are using the TiVo remote and that you hold it so that the TiVo button
points toward the recorder.
• Press any button on the remote. Does the red light above the TiVo button flash? If not,
make sure that the batteries are positioned correctly in the remote. If they are, try a
new set of batteries.
If the red light does flash, does the green light on the front of the recorder change to
yellow when you press any button on the remote? If it does not, restart your recorder
by unplugging it, waiting 15 seconds, then plugging it back in.
If you use cable with a cable box:
• Make sure the cable box is turned on.
• Make sure you are using the TiVo remote control, and that you hold it so that the TiVo
button points toward the recorder, not a cable or satellite box.
