Introduction to the EPG

What is EPG?
The Electronic Program Guide (EPG) is a convenient way to find out what is on
your TV and to view a list of upcoming programs. Lists of programs are available
for any date in the next 7 days depending on the network provider.
Features of the EPG
The following list provides an overview of the features of an EPG:
• With the browsing features, you can see what is on TV for a particular channel,
program channel, or program title.
• Instant program descriptions appear while using the browsing feature to view
detailed channel information.
• Timers help you keep track of upcoming programs by providing reminders on
the screen before the program starts.
• You can set up Favorite profiles for a quick browse of your favorite channels.
Browsing By Channel
