QUICK TOUR - SKIPMODE™
With the touch of a button, skip to the end of a commercial break and resume watching 
instantly.
The SkipMode feature is available only on certain recorded shows; we hope to make it 
available for the most popular shows on the most popular channels watched by TiVo 
subscribers. That means you’ll find SkipMode availability on many shows that you record 
between 4:30 p.m. and midnight (or 12:30 a.m. on major networks) on the most widely-
watched channels. 
A few minutes after the show has finished recording, you’ll see a 
 icon next to the title 
in My Shows. That means it’s ready for skipping!
1. Choose a recorded show with the 
 icon visible.
2. When you get to the end of a show segment, press the 
 button or CHANNEL UP on 
your remote.
3. Voilà! You’re at the beginning of the next segment.
4. At any time during the show, CHANNEL UP takes you to the next show segment. For 
instance, want to skip the judging on your favorite reality show competition (like The 
Voice or Dancing with the Stars)? Just press CHANNEL UP when the judging starts. 
You’ll skip past the judging and through the next commercial break. Your show will start 
playing at the beginning of the next segment.
5. To skip back to the beginning of a previous show segment, press CHANNEL DOWN.

Happy skipping!
