You can order Pay Per View events using your remote control. Some events have
dedicated channels that allow ordering more than 24 hours in advance, but for most
events, pricing information becomes available within 24 hours before the event begins.
Once that information is available, you can select and record the event as you would
any other program. When you select an event, a special Pay Per View
$&
&
screen will appear with options to purchase it. For a complete description,
see page 77.
