successfully changed, select
Yes
to confirm.
If the channel did not change, select
No
. The GUIDE
Plus+ system will try other codes assigned to your

It will wake up automatically and download new codes
from the host channel. The next day, try this setup
process again:

to display the GUIDE Plus+ setup
menu.
• Press
to highlight the Menu bar, then use
