Questions about Channels • Your video cable may have come loose. Make sure all the cable connections on the back of your recorder are secure. • Verify that you are receiving a video signal by temporarily connecting the video source directly to the TV.

(From TiVo Central, select Messages & Setup, then Restart or Reset System, then Restart the Recorder. On the Restart the Recorder screen, press THUMBS DOWN three times, then press ENTER. You will see the Welcome screen, and the system will restart within about 45 seconds. You can also restart the recorder by unplugging it, waiting 15 seconds, then plugging it back in.) • The cables you are using to connect your recorder to your TV or other equipment may be damaged or defective. Try exchanging the cables connected to the recorder with other cables that you know are working properly. I can't go to one of my channels. • You may be using a channel list that does not include the channel you want. Use the numbers on the remote control to enter the channel number, then press ENTER/JUMP. For more information on using a channel list, see page 59. • The channel you want may be showing a program that exceeds a limit set with Parental Controls. In this case, you will see only a black screen with a notice that a limit has been exceeded. You will be able to tune to the channel if you use the Parental Controls password.
