Getting started
❖ Using Instant Rewind
If the Instant Rewind feature is switched on (see pages 51 to 53), at any 
moment while you are watching TV, you can rewind the programme 
you are watching to catch something you missed.
◆ To start Instant Rewind, press rewind on your FOXTEL remote 
control. Depending on your settings, you can rewind up to 60 
minutes before live TV. You can increase the rewind speed by 
pressing rewind again. (To slow down the rewind speed, press 
fast forward.)
◆ When you reach the point you want to watch from, press play. 
A symbol briefly displays on-screen (see right). The number 
shows the number of minutes you are ‘behind’ the actual live TV 
programmes.
You can continue watching the entire programme from that point - 
your FOXTEL iQ will continue recording until the end of the 
programme. Or you can press fast forward to catch up with normal 
TV again.
While you are watching an Instant Rewind recording, symbols display 
on your TV screen to show you what is happening (see page 78), and 
the lights on the playback indicator light up (see page 62).
You can press FOXTEL at any point to stop Instant Rewind and 
resume normal TV viewing. When you stop Instant Rewind, the 
recording is deleted.
If you change channel, or select TV Guide, Box Office, Active or your 
Personal Planner, this will also stop and delete Instant Rewind.
Closed Captions are not available whilst you are using Instant Rewind.
Note
The Instant Rewind feature is off by default. To activate Instant Rewind 
see page 51.
