Why You Should Use the Autotuning Feature

The autotuning feature automatically tunes the TV to the correct channel for different components you have connected to your TV (like a VCR, DVD Player, etc.) When you set up autotuning in the menu system you don’t have to remember to change your TV to channel 3, for example, when you want to watch the tape in your VCR.

How to Set Up the Autotuning Feature

With the autotuning feature, you can set up the TV to tune to the channel you need to watch by pressing that component’s button.

1. Press MENU (the MAIN MENU appears).

The way you set up the autotuning feature in the TV’s menu corresponds to the component buttons on the remote and the way you have each component connected to your TV. When you set up autotuning, you’re telling the TV what channel to tune to when you press the VCR1, VCR2, DVD, or SAT•CABLE button on the remote control.

2.Highlight Setup and press OK on your remote control.

3.Highlight Autotuning and press OK.

4.Choose which channel you would like to set:

Set VCR 1 Channel Lets you set up the channel the TV tunes to when you press the VCR1 button. Set VCR 2 Channel Lets you set up the channel the TV tunes to when you press the VCR2 button. Set DVD Channel Lets you set up the channel the TV tunes to when you press the DVD button.

Set SAT/Cable Channel Lets you set up the channel the TV tunes to when you press the SAT•CABLE button on an RCA satellite receiver remote. (The RCA DTC100 HD receiver is considered a satellite device and can be set up for autotuning using this channel.)

5.Press the right arrow button to select the choice that matches the way you have the component connected to this TV, and press OK.

The choices and a brief explanation follow:
