For example, the keyword HELI* would find shows containing “helicopter,” “heliport,” “helium,” as well as the movie “Helicopter Cops.” To enter an asterisk, press the SLOW ( ) button as you are spelling out your keyword or title. The asterisk can be helpful when you’re looking for a range of similar words, as in the example above, or if you’re just not sure how something is spelled. Pop quiz: is it “irresistible” or “irresistable?” Use the keyword IRRESIST* and don’t worry about it! Two things to note about using the asterisk: • It can only be used at a word’s end; it cannot be used to omit letters at the beginning or in the middle of a word. (For example, HELI*ER or *COPTER would not work.) • Be as specific as possible. For example, do not use keywords like TH*. There will not be enough room to show all the results of a keyword that is too general.

You can place a space character by selecting SP on the grid of letters or by pressing FORWARD ( ). • Any other marks, such as apostrophes ( ’ ) and ampersands ( & ), are ignored.
