IR Code List. Each code has a slow, medium, and fast version. First test the slow codes by highlighting them and pressing the CHAN UP/DOWN button slowly 10-15 times. When you find a slow code that changes channels every time, try a faster speed for that code. (Slow may take longer, but fast may be too fast for your cable box or satellite receiver.) You want to find the code with the fastest speed that changes the channel every time. When you find it, press SELECT to choose that code. If channels don't change at all, see page 77 for troubleshooting steps. Program Call. During this call, the TiVo service downloads all your program information-which includes program titles, times, channels, and descriptions-for up to the next two weeks. If the call doesn't succeed, see pages 73 to 74 for troubleshooting steps. If you need to use the phone during the program call, pick up your telephone, then hang it up and wait a few seconds. The next time you pick the phone up there will be a dial tone. You will need to re-initiate the program call later. Congratulations! When the recorder has finished downloading your program information, press SELECT to continue, and you'll see the Congratulations! screen. You can now watch live TV and use your recorder's features to control live TV (pause, instant replay, slow motion). After Guided Setup, the recorder works behind the scenes for about four to eight hours to organize program information for the first time. During this process, you will have to wait to search for programs and set up recordings. A message at the bottom of the Pick Programs to Record screen will let you know if you can search for programs yet. If the message appears, try again after a few hours. onscreen message Basic Steps 1 7
