Tip
Since the program information provided by
the GUIDE Plus+ system is based on your
locale, you will need to run Setup again if
you move to a different zip or postal code.
Downloading Data
The GUIDE Plus+ system is not available until it completes its first download of
program listings. When the power is turl'led off, tile TV locates a "host channel"
that carries GUIDE Plus+ systet+a data containing program schedule and channel
lineup information. A channel lineup is the list of stations and their respective
channels.
To ensure that your first download of data is complete, you should leave your
TV off overnight. Downloads occur several times a day. The TV must be turned
off"for GUIDE Plus+ system data to download.
If the TV loses power or is unplugged, GUIDE Plus+ system program listings
may be lost. When power is restored, make sure the setup inforn'tation is still
correct. The GUIDE Plus+ system will receive ttpdated program inikmnation
during the next scheduled download.
Channel Lineup
If more than one cable company services your area, you may be prompted with
STEP 5: Choosing Your Channel Lineup after the first GUIDE Plus+ system
download. You will need to identify your cable company by selecting the
correct channel numbers for tile stations in question.
Use tile up and down arrow ])Llttons to chatlgL' th+., channel group and
press OK when tile correct channel gtoup is highlighted.
