What To Expect

Watching TV

•Remember: Look for an A at the bottom of the screen to see if you're watching an analog channel.

Analog video is sent in a 4/3 format, which your TV displays these channels in a 16/9 format. Press the ZOOM+/- button to view the different formats available. Go to page 32 for more explanation of screen formats.

•Remember: Look for a D at the bottom of the screen to see if you're watching a digital channel.

Most digital video is sent in a 16/9 format which does ﬁll your screen, but sometimes is sent in 4/3 which does not ﬁll your screen. It depends on how the station or source device is formatting the video. If there are bars on-screen, press the

ZOOM+/- button to try a different format that may eliminate the bars. Some bars can't be removed because of the way

the format is sent by the broadcaster. Go to page 32 for more explanation of screen formats.

Changing Channels

•Digital channels can have both primary channels (like the analog channel number) and sub-channels. To tune to a digital channel with a sub-channel, such as 10-1 as shown in the graphic to the left, enter the primary channel number (10), then press either the right arrow or the SUB CH button. Enter the sub-channel number

(1) and press OK.

•Depending upon the type of signals you have connected to your HDTV, you might notice that the channels change slower than you’re used to. This is perfectly normal. Digital cable channels sometimes take longer to tune.
