Opening the Menus
You can open the menus in either of two ways:
Press MENU to open the Main Menu
,
 then select any of the other menus 
from the Main Menu
.
Use the matching button on the remote control. For example, to open the
 
Program Guide, press GUIDE.
Closing the Menus
To close a menu and return to watching a program, press the VIEW TV button, 
or the CANCEL
 
button.
Note: The menu closes if you do not do anything in a menu for several minutes. 
Any unsaved changes you made will be lost.
Menu Options
A menu option looks like this.
Highlighting a Menu Option
Use the ARROW buttons to move the on-screen highlight to the menu option. 
The selected option then appears lighter than the other options. 
The highlight is like the one you may have seen on a computer screen. 
Compare the highlighted menu option with the non-
highlighted menu option in the previous example. 
Selecting a Menu Option
When you select a menu option, that option takes effect right away. You can 
select a menu option in either of two ways:
If the option has a number next to it, press the same number on the remote’s 
NUMBER PAD. If you do this, you do not need to highlight the option 
first.
Move the highlight to the menu option using the ARROW buttons. Then 
press the SELECT button.
Lists of Choices in the Menus
When you make a choice in a list, the receiver does not apply the change until 
you select the
 
Save
 
or OK option. If you do not want to save any changes, 
select the Cancel option to discard all the changes made in the menu.
There are two types of lists:
single choice list allows you to select only one choice at a time. If you 
select another choice, your previous choice is deselected.
multiple choice list allows you to select more than one choice at one 
time. If you select another choice, your previous choice(s) stays selected.
Tip: To quickly go 
to any menu 
option with a 
number next to it, 
just press the 
number on the 
remote that 
matches that 
option number.
