Notes:
The GUIDE Plus+ system screens illustrated in this book are representations of what you are likely to see. Not all channels, programs, and GUIDE
Plus+ information depicted will be available in your area.
New features and options can be downloaded to the GUIDE Plus+ system, so these are subject to change also.
