a date, enter the numbers using the remote control in month/day format. The year will be set
automatically. Events can be scheduled up to eleven months in advance. Once you have set the
Frequency, advance using the key.
If the event appears as you would like it, choose OK, otherwise choose Cancel to abort the edits made

Check Mail
The CHECK MAIL feature of your digital satellite receiver enables service providers to notify you
about important information, upcoming special events, offers, and
other promotional programming.
When new messages are received, a “new mail” icon appears at the
top of all menu screens. This indicator will remain on the menus
until you have read the new message.
When you highlight the Check Mail button, the advisory message at
the bottom of the screen indicates if there are any messages to read.
If there are, you can press to access the CHECK MAIL
screen.
