Changing Channels
Chapter 3
CHANGING CHANNELS
There are two basic ways to change the channel on your satellite TV receiver:
• Use the UP and DOWN ARROWS on your remote control
• Enter a channel number using the remote’s NUMBER PAD buttons
Using the Up and Down Arrows
While watching live TV, if you want to change the channels one at a time
to see what’s on, press the UP and DOWN ARROWS on your remote
control. You can also change the channels the same way using the UP
and DOWN ARROWS on the receiver front panel.
Entering a Channel Number
While watching live TV, if you know the specific channel you
want to watch, enter the digits of the channel number using
the NUMBER PAD buttons on the remote control.
USING THE PROGRAM GUIDE
You can use the Electronic Program Guide (EPG) to see what programs are on, to change
channels, and to set up timed recordings. To access the program guide, press GUIDE.
• When a channel name and number are both in red, this means the channel is not in
your DISH package. After you add a channel to your package, you can watch it. To
add a channel, visit the website at www.mydish.com or call 1-800-333-DISH (3474).
• The Program Guide shows which Favorites List is active. If All Channels is the active
list, the Program Guide displays all the channels. The My Channels Favorites List
displays only the channels included in your current DISH package. And the My HD
Channels Favorites List displays only the high-definition channels in your package.
