contains schedule and program information for all
DIRECTV ® channels. The APG also provides local over-the-air channels information including
both conventional analog and digital channels if you receive satellite service.
Helping you to find a program easily and conveniently, the APG allows you to view schedule and
descriptive program information for the channels. The receiver offers five different channel lists:
ALL, CUSTOM, FAVORITE, MOVIES and SPORTS. You may edit the CUSTOM and FAVORITE chan-
nel lists to customize and design your favorite channels, respectively. In addition, you can easi-
ly find specific programs by using the CATEGORY search of KEYWORD search functions. An
explanation of each channel list is described in Section 7-2.
You can bring up the APG in two ways and exit from it in three ways.
To bring up the APG:
- Press the Guide button on your remote control.
or
- Press the Menu button on the remote control and select the DIRECTV menu. Several options

To exit the APG:
- Press the Exit button to return to the last channel you were tuned to.
or
- Press the Guide button on the remote control twice when a program or channel is highlighted.

ond time makes the APG disappear.
