- Use the arrow buttons on the remote to navigate the letters on the letter pad and press SELECT.
- Search results appear after the first letter selected.
- When the title of the program you’re looking for appears, you can set recording options.
The more you use Smart Search feature, the smarter it gets. It’ll save all your recent searches to help you find what you’re looking for the next time you search.
