Using the Remote

The Point and Select Method

Point and Select is the two-step method you use to navigate through the
menu system and program guides. Once you know how to point and
select, you can explore the menus.
1. Point
You point by pressing the arrow keys on the remote control. Pressing
the arrow keys moves the on-screen highlight to different items in the
program guide and the menu screens. Pressing an arrow once moves the
highlight one space in the direction of the arrow.
For example, to point down (that is, to move the highlight toward the
bottom of the screen), press the down arrow. To point right, press the
right arrow.
2. Select
Once you have pointed to an item on the screen, select it by pressing the
OK button on the remote. Selecting an item tells the menu system to go
ahead and make the change you have indicated.
For example, the instructions in the User's Manual might tell you to
Point to the Exit button and press OK.
