Tips and Troubleshooting Zip Code. Antenna users: The TiVo service uses the channel lineup of a nearby cable service to determine which channels you receive. If there is no cable company that serves your zip code, enter the zip code of a nearby community that has cable service. Phone Dialing Options. If your phone system requires special dialing options, choose "Yes." (For example: do you dial "9" to get an outside line?) Most people won't need to change the settings. If you're not sure, or if you need help with specific dailing options, see page 62 for information about each option. Setup Call. This toll-free call takes a few minutes to get the dial-in numbers for your area code and the list of cable or satellite providers for your zip code. After hanging up, the recorder will take 5 to 15 minutes to organize the information. If the call doesn't succeed, see pages 73 to 74 for troubleshooting steps. Dial-In Number. The recorder will use the dial-in number you choose for its daily calls to the TiVo service. The list may be too long to fit on one screen. To see more phone numbers, press the DOWN arrow or CHAN DOWN. Note: TiVo uses a standard telephone line to provide the TiVo service and is available as a local call in most areas. In some areas, however, local and long distance toll charges may apply. You are responsible for any such telephone charges. Basic Steps 1 3

Basic Steps
Tips and Troubleshooting
Zip Code.
Antenna users: The TiVo service uses the channel lineup of a nearby cable
service to determine which channels you receive. If there is no cable company that serves
your zip code, enter the zip code of a nearby community that has cable service.
Phone Dialing Options.
If your phone system
requires special dialing options, choose “Yes.”
(For example: do you dial “9” to get an outside
line?) Most people won’t need to change the
settings. If you’re not sure, or if you need help
with specific dailing options, see page 62 for
information about each option.
Setup Call.
This toll-free call takes a few minutes
to get the dial-in numbers for your area code and
the list of cable or satellite providers for your zip code. After hanging up, the recorder will
take 5 to 15 minutes to organize the information. If the call doesn’t succeed, see pages 73
to 74 for troubleshooting steps.
Dial-In Number.
The recorder will use the dial-in number you choose for its daily calls to
the TiVo service. The list may be too long to fit on one screen. To see more phone
numbers, press the DOWN arrow or CHAN DOWN.
Note: TiVo uses a standard telephone line to provide the TiVo service and is available as a
local call in most areas. In some areas, however, local and long distance toll charges may
apply. You are responsible for any such telephone charges.
