scheduled reminder or recording.
When scheduled reminder is about to progress

Depending on the settings you made, your program reminder
will appear on your TV screen around the time the program is
scheduled to start. This happens when you have selected “NO”

minutes before it automatically disappears.
Press
ENTER
to tune to the highlighted program in the
reminder; or highlight “hide reminders” to dismiss the reminder.

program you want by pressing / .
