Setting Up an Automatic Timer

1

Press MENU and select Daily Schedule (7).

2

Use the ARROWS to select a future program if you want to Skip or Restore a timer. You
can also choose to Protect it, or view the start early/end late settings.

To change the start early/end late setting, select the event within the Timers List.

If the program is a DISH Pass timer, you cannot change the start early or end late
times on an individual program; it must be changed on the DISH Pass timer, from the
Timers List.

Press PAGE UP to see the previous days' timers. Review these timers if you want to
see the result of your timers (e.g. if it recorded successfully or why it might have been
skipped).
