TO MEMORIZE CHANNELS

This TV is equipped with a channel memory feature which allows channels to skip up or down to the next channel set into memory, skipping over unwanted channels.

Before selecting channels, they must be programmed into the TV's memory. In addition to normal VHF and UHF channels, this TV can receive up to 113 Cable TV channels. To use this TV with an antenna, set the TV/CATV menu option to the TV setting. When shipped from the factory, this menu option is in the CATV setting.
