STEP 2 Complete Guided Setup Stepping through Guided Setup Guided Setup is the last step before you can start using your SVR Recorder with the TiVo® service. The TiVo service lets you schedule Season Pass™ recordings, create WishList™ searches, use TiVo Suggestions, and take advantage of other exclusive TiVo DVR (digital video recorder) features. When you see the Welcome screen, you are ready to begin Guided Setup. The first several screens ask simple questions about your program source, zip code, and time zone. Use the SELECT button on the remote to select or deselect options, and the LEFT and RIGHT arrow buttons to move from screen to screen. The Welcome screen is the first screen in Guided Setup. Helpful Hints (see the Viewer's Guide for more information) Phone If you don't have a phone jack close to the SVR Recorder, you can use the included 25-foot phone cord to complete Guided Setup. Afterward, plug it in just once a week to make a call. Just press the TiVo button to go to TiVo Central®, then go to Messages & Setup, then Recorder & Phone Setup, then Phone Connection, and then choose Make Daily Call Now. Or purchase a wireless modem jack. Having trouble with the Guided Setup phone calls? Use the LEFT arrow button on the remote to go back to the Phone Dialing Options screen and try these steps: If you have call waiting, take out any prefix you may have inserted. Turn off dial tone detection. Turn off phone availability detection. (See the Viewer's Guide for details.) If you need to use your phone while a Guided Setup call is in progress, pick up the phone, wait 5 to 10 seconds, then hang up. When you pick up the phone again, the line should be free. You can complete Guided Setup later. Channels Billing During Guided Setup, you are asked to select a channel lineup. A channel lineup is the set of channels you subscribe to-like "Digital Extended Basic" or "DIRECTV-Boston, MA." If you aren't sure of your lineup, check your channel lineup card (you may have been provided with one when you signed up for service) or guess. You will be able to check your guess on the screen that follows. The channel numbers shown on the Channels You Receive screen should match your lineup. If not, use LEFT arrow to go back for a different lineup. Don't forget to customize the list of channels you watch. It will make the SVR Recorder easier to use. Use the Channels You Receive screen to remove check marks for channels you don't receive or never watch. If you want to make changes after you complete Guided Setup, you can find the Channels You Receive screen by selecting Messages & Setup, then My Preferences, then Channel Lists. Do you want to change your billing method or credit card information? After you activate the TiVo service, you can do all this and more by using Manage My Account, at www.tivo.com/manage. Over
