Check fewer boxes to make the search faster (but less

5 Special Features complete) and vice versa. A complete search takes about 50 minutes.

To add a channel that Channel Search didn't find, clear all menus and tune to the channel with the number keys.

Start Search

Two lines of help text will appear in this area to explain the feature and instruct the user on how to use it.

Tip

You can still add a channel that was not found by Channel Search. Clear any on-screen menus, and tune to it by using the number buttons on the remote. If the channel can be tuned, it will be added to the channel list for that tuner.

Channel Search

Engaging in a channel search tells the TV to search for all the TV channels available through the Antenna and Cable inputs. When the TV finds an active channel, it places it in the channel list. Inactive channels (weak stations or channels with no signal at all) aren’t placed in the channel list.

To do a full channel search, check each box that pertains to your TV. For example, if you’re only receiving cable from the CABLE INPUT, highlight Cable Input and press OK to place a check mark in the box. Select Start to begin the setup.

Notes: Channel Search with all options selected takes some time to complete because all possible analog and digital channels are being searched.

If a cable box is connected to your TV’s CABLE INPUT or the CableCARD slot is in use, don’t check the Cable Input box.
