then Recorder & Phone Setup, then Cable/Satellite Box, then Control Cable/Sat. Setup

• Your recorder is having trouble tuning to the channel you are on. Follow these steps to

restore the video:

• Try changing channels. If the blue screen appears on just a few channels, you may

be tuned to a channel to which you do not subscribe, or you may be experiencing a
weak signal on a channel to which you do subscribe. If you do not subscribe to the
channel, you should take it off the “Channels You Receive” list. (For more
information, see page 59.) If you do subscribe to the channel, wait 24 hours to see
if the signal improves, or call your cable or satellite provider.

• If you have a satellite or cable box, go to Messages & Setup, Cable/Satellite Box,

Connection to Recorder. Verify that you chose the same cable on this screen that
you used to connect your satellite or cable box to the recorder.

• If the blue screen appears on every channel, and you have a cable or satellite box,

make sure it is turned on.

• You may be experiencing a temporary cable or satellite outage; check with your

cable or satellite provider.
