Record
Press 3 on the remote to place a timer in the Schedule for

you have a cable box, changing channels on the TV will not cause
the cable box channel to change while recording.

have successfully created a timer to watch or record. If you have selected
two programs to watch or record which begin at the same time or
overlap, you will receive a timer conflict message. The GUIDE Plus+
