(For analogue
broadcasting only)
Introduction to the
GUIDE Plus+ System
®
The GUIDE Plus+ system is a free
interactive programme guide. It displays up
to seven days of programme listings,
including programme titles, promotions, and
broadcast information. GUIDE Plus+ data for
the television programme listings are carried
by your local broadcast host channel and are
received through your aerial, set top box
receiver, or direct cable connection from the
wall.
Visit www.europe.guideplus.com for a list of
all European host channels.
These are just a few of the ways to use the
GUIDE Plus+ system.
– Search for programmes by listing them
according to category (such as Movies or
Sport) or by using the Keyword Search
function (page 66).
– Once you have found the programme you
are looking for, use the GUIDE Plus+
system to set the timer for recording
(page 73).
– You can set the system to display your
favourite programmes according to
conditions that you set, such as category
and keyword (page 67).
