QUICK TOUR - CONTROLLING LIVE
TV
When you're watching a show as it's broadcast, you're watching live TV. Press the LIVE TV button - on the right
of the TiVo button at the top of your remote - to go to live TV from any TiVo screen.
USING TRICKPLAY
1. First, press the PAUSE button in the center of your remote. You can pause live TV for up to 30 minutes.
When you pause live TV, a status bar is displayed showing a one-hour period. The green segment shows the
portion of the hour that has been saved by your TiVo box. The thick white line marks your current point in
time. When the white line is back in the green segment, you're "behind" live TV.
2. Press PLAY - at the top of the circle around the PAUSE button in the center of your remote - to continue
watching the show. Next, press REWIND - in the circle to the left of the round PAUSE button in the center of
your remote - and the show rewinds. Press REWIND a second time to rewind faster, and a third time to go at
triple speed. Press PLAY at any time to return to normal speed.
3. Press PAUSE again, and, with the show paused, press FAST FORWARD - in the circle to the right of the
round PAUSE button in the center of your remote - to move a small step forward. Press REWIND to move a
small step back. Press PLAY to resume watching at normal speed.
4. Press REPLAY - the round button on the left below the PAUSE circle. The show jumps back 8 seconds —
useful for when you miss a great sports play or a bit of dialog, or for when you fast forward too far.
5. Press REPLAY again, then immediately press SLOW - at the bottom of the circle around the PAUSE button in
the center of your remote - to see your own slow-motion replay.
6. Press ADVANCE - the round button on the right below the PAUSE circle - button. You'll instantly move
forward 30 seconds.
7. Press and hold the ADVANCE and presto! You're caught up to live TV.
8. Press and hold the REPLAY button to skip back to the beginning of the saved portion.

CHANGING CHANNELS

To move one channel at a time, press CHANNEL UP/DOWN - the vertical oval button on the right between the
arrow circle and the PAUSE circle on your remote.
To go to a specific channel, use the number pad - 10 buttons arranged in rows in the lower third of the remote
control, then press ENTER - the bottom-most button on the right of remote. (If you don't press ENTER, the
channel changes automatically after a few seconds.) To jump back to the previous channel on the same tuner,
press ENTER again.
Tired of channel surfing? Press GUIDE - the horizontal oval button just below the arrow circle - to display the
program guide. Highlight any show and press SELECT- the round button at the center of the arrows circle. If the
