Watching TV
Now that everything’s set up, you’re ready to grab your remote and start surfing!
With the MODE switch to the left (under the DIRECTV logo), press PWR. To access the channel of
your choice, simply key in its numbers on your remote (the channel will appear in a second or two, or
press ENTER after the numbers and it will appear right away). You can also navigate to different chan-
nels through the Guide, described in detail later in this chapter. Keep in mind, either way, you’ll only be
able to access those channels in your chosen DIRECTV® programming package. For a list of the channels
available in the DIRECTV programming packages, visit DIRECTV.com.
Use the black keys on the left side of your remote control to adjust volume up or down (VOL) or mute
the sound (MUTE). The black keys on the right side can take you to the next channel numerically up or
down (CHAN), or jump to the previous channel you watched (PREV).
Use the Channel Lineup (included
in your Welcome package) to get
familiar with our channel numbers.
