program to which channel the TV will automatically tune when you press the VCR1 button on the remote. This is handy if you connect a VCR to your TV. You will no longer have to remember to which input jacks the VCR is connected because the TV will remember for you.

For example, if you connect a VCR's

AUDIO/VIDEO OUT jacks to the TV's INPUT 1 jacks (as shown on page 35), you will no longer have to remember to select channel 91 on the TV to see what the VCR is playing. By entering channel 91 next to the VCR 1 CHAN function, the TV will automatically tune to channel 91 each time you press the VCR1 button on the remote.

This function is especially convenient if you have a compatible VCR that can be operated by the VCR1 button on the remote. Pressing VCR1 will then not only turn on the VCR but also automatically tune the TV to the proper channel for viewing the picture from the VCR. You can program most brands of remote- controllable VCRs to respond to the VCR1 button as described on

igage 38.

Notes about Entering Channel Number:

Enter channel 91 if VCR is connected to the TV's audio and Video INPUT 1 jacks.

Enter channel 92 if VCR is connected to the TV's audio and video INPUT 2 jacks.

Enter channel 90 if you have a Super-VHS VCR that is connected to the TV's S-VIDEOconnector and INPUT 1 audio jacks (labeled L and R/MONO).

Enter channel 03 (or 04) if you did not use any audio/video cables and connected the VCR to the TV's round antenna jack labeled ANTA or ANT B. Enter the same channel number (03 or 04) as the position of the VCR's CH3/CH4 switch. This is the channel to which you must tune your TV for viewing signals from your.VCR.
