NexTView is an electronic programme guide with up to 1 week* of programme information on those channels included in
the selected provider.

*If the data exceeds the memory of NexTView, you will get information on less than 7 days.

When looking for information you can search by theme (sports, art etc.), date or time (e.g. broadcasts between 8 and 9

p.m.). When you’ve found a programme you can go directly to this programme, use the timer to remind you of it or preset
your VCR with Smartlink.

The NexTView provider is responsible for the contents of the guide. The TV set is responsible for the presentation, that is
the menu structure and the navigation, if there is none from the provider. If there is a navigation from the provider the basic  
operation with the joystick is the same as described in the Sony navigation.

At first you need to select a channel providing a NexTView service. In this case the indication “NexTView” is displayed 
as soon as all data is available. When you later change the channel you can still select this NexTView service.
