To access, or bring up, the guide press the back button on your remote.  This will bring you all the channels in the current category you are viewing.  If this is your first time the default category is All Channels, this may take a few seconds to populate.

Hide/Remove Channel Categories

In here you can also sort the categories alphabetically (easier to find for most) or any other way you'd like.]]> Access the EPG (guide)
