The Users function lets each member of the
household set up a personal profile that includes
his or her Favorite Channels, preferred Guide View,
preferred Keyboard, and Saved Searches. In the
near future, the Contour Program Guide will be
able to offer a range of other features, including
recommendations for additional shows you might
like but weren’t aware of and the ability to send
messages to other Cox subscribers.
In homes with more than one television, different
users are able to enjoy their personalized settings
from different televisions. The Contour Program
Guide comes with a default user – called Valued
Customer – that you can personalize with your
Favorite Channels and other preferences.
To get the most advantage from the Users function, you should begin by setting up User profiles for one or more
household members.
