Warnings

We have an important note for customers who subscribe to basic cable services (do not have a separate cable box) and plan to use their JVC TV remote control to select channels.

Once you run the Auto Tuner Setup (which detects and programs all the channels your TV is receiving through the RF input), every channel number available from your cable company will appear in your television’s Channel Summary and they will all be marked as available for scanning. Even though every channel is detected and appears as available, you will only be able to view those that you speciﬁcally subscribe to from your cable company. This will likely mean there are blank channels between those channels you wish to scan or “surf”.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause but it is important to note that this is not a malfunction of your television. If you want to sequentially scan those channels you subscribe to without blank ones in between, you can contact your cable company for their cable box and remote.
