The Grid Area

The Grid is the main TV listings screen of the
GUIDE Plus+ system and is the first screen
that you see when you press

GUIDE

. You can

see TV listings for the next seven days,
starting with the current day.

When you highlight a program in the Grid,
you can see information about it in the
Information Box, including title, synopsis,
channel, source, time and length. If there is
an

i

symbol in the Information Box, it means

that there is an extended synopsis available.
Press the

INFO

button to see it.

In some countries, you can also see a rating
for a particular program (mostly movies).
These ratings are provided by local partners,
such as TV magazines.

From the Grid Area you can:

• View and scroll through program listings

• Read program synopsis

• Tune to a program that’s currently

showing

1

• Set a program to record

• Lock or unlock the video window.

• Access Information panels.

Note

1 If you’re using an external tuner (satellite tuner, for example), there will be a short delay of a couple of seconds

while it tunes to the channel. This is normal.
