GETTING AROUND THE TIVO
MENUS

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Before you begin, be sure to read the TiVo Remote Control Guide available on tivo.com/accessibility.
When you turn on your TiVo box for the first time, you will need to run Guided Setup. To turn on the screen
reader before you begin Guided Setup, press and hold the A button - the left-most button in the line of buttons
between the PAUSE circle and the number pad - when the Welcome screen appears, or on any Guided Setup
screen.
ACCESSIBILITY FEATURES
Your TiVo box is ready to help visually-impaired users get the most out of the TiVo experience. Find and enjoy
your favorite shows with a few clicks of your remote control.
SCREEN READER
Turn the screen reader on or off by pressing the A button - the left-most button in the line of buttons between
the PAUSE circle and the number pad - on your TiVo remote control for two seconds. You'll hear a voice say
"Screen reader on" or "Screen reader off."
When the screen reader is on, the TiVo menu text will be audible. In addition:
• When CHANNEL UP/DOWN button on the remote control is pressed, the channel and program information
will be audible.
• When the INFO button on the remote control is pressed, program information will be audible.
To adjust the volume of the screen reader, use the VOLUME button on your remote - the long oval shaped
button on the left between the arrow circle and the Pause circle. Or, if it is hard to heard the screen reader
because of audio from the video being watched, pause the video by pressing PAUSE - the round button in the
center of your remote.
Turn the screen reader off temporarily by pressing the A button quickly. Note that this function does not work
on the My Shows screen or when using the Guide.

AUDIO DESCRIPTION

Turn on Audio Description, when available, by pressing the C button - the second from the right in the line of
buttons between the PAUSE circle and the number pad on your remote - for two seconds. This will change the
audio track of the show to the secondary audio track, which is often the Audio Description track.
Note that:
• If there are multiple audio tracks, pressing the C button for two seconds will cycle through all available
tracks.
• This function will not work if any overlays are present (like the Info Banner that appears over the video
when you change channels, or the TrickPlay Bar that appears when you pause, fast forward, or rewind
video). If you press and hold C but get no response, try pressing CLEAR - the leftmost button on the
bottom row of your remote - to clear any overlays. Then press and hold C again.

MENU STRUCTURE

The first screen you reach when you press the TiVo button - the button at the top of your remote - is the TiVo
Central screen. The TiVo menus consist of the top-level menu items on the TiVo Central screen, and sub-menus
that branch off from the top-level items. For example, selecting the TiVo Central item "Find TV, Movies, &
