CHANGING BETWEEN DIRECTV AND TV MODE

When you change channels by entering numbers with the remote control, you tune
to programming that can come from one of three different sources: the DIRECTV
satellite (if you have DIRECTV service), a terrestrial off-air antenna, or cable TV. You
tune to one of these sources by pressing either TV or DIRECTV on the remote
control; then you can enter the channel numbers. The diagrams below show how
your remote control communicates with the three sources.

In TV mode, you tune to channels that
carry the terrestrial off-air or cable TV
signal.

To tune to a digital channel, enter
channel numbers that are one, two, or
three digits long. If necessary, press the
right arrow and enter a subchannel
number. These numbers appear in the
box to the right of the primary channel
number. Press OK to tune.

To tune to an analog channel, enter
channel numbers that are up to three
digits long. Press OK to tune.

In DIRECTV mode, you tune to channels
that come from the DIRECTV satellite
signal (if you subscribe to DIRECTV

®

programming). Enter channel numbers
that are three or four digits long. Then
press OK to tune.
