About the TV Guide On Screen™ system
The TV Guide On Screen™ system is a free, interactive on-screen
television program guide. The system offers program listings,
searching by keyword, reminders and more. The TV Guide On
Screen™ system is a convenient way to find out what’s on right
now or during the coming week, by channel or by genre. It also
allows you to automatically set your viewing and recording
selections quickly and easily.
Before you can start using the TV Guide On Screen™ system,
you’ll need to set it up.

Setting up the TV Guide On Screen™
system

starting with the Welcome Screen. Setup may be accessed from
the initial Setup reminder screens, or by pressing TV GUIDE for a
device in which TV Guide On Screen™ has not yet been setup.
Note

up to 24 hours to begin to receive TV program listings. Receipt
of all eight days of listings may take up to one week (see Screen

• Press ENTER to display Screen 1 (shown on the right column
of this page).
Reminder Screen
If you previously skipped Guide setup, you see the Reminder
Screen when you power on your TV.
To make a selection, press / to highlight an option, and press
ENTER.
• “Start setup” displays Screen 1.
• “Remind me to set it up later” returns you to watching TV.
• “Don’t remind me again” returns you to watching TV and stops
the reminder screen from appearing upon power on.
Note
• If you decide not to set up the Guide now, this reminder screen
will appear each time you power on the TV (except if you
selected “Don’t remind me again”).
