Plug in the TV

Plug the flat end of the cable into the power jack on the back of the TV. Then plug the end of the power cord into an appropriate wall outlet. Be sure to insert the plug completely. Do not plug into an outlet controlled by a light switch. The TV needs some power to acquire guide listings, do recordings, etc.

Note: When you first plug your TV into an outlet, the Power LED indicator on the front panel will light for approximately 15 seconds and then go off during the initialization of the TV. The TV can only be turned on after the Power LED indicator goes off. This happens every time power is reapplied to the TV.

Put batteries in the remote

Remove the battery compartment cover from the back of the remote by pushing down on and sliding off the cover.

Insert 2 “AA” fresh batteries. Make sure the polarities (+ and -) are aligned correctly.

Replace the cover.

Use the Remote Control to Complete the Assisted Setup

The technical term is “Navigation” – how you move through the on- screen menus. The method is the same throughout the menu screens: highlight your choice and select it.

To highlight a menu item, put the remote into TV mode by pressing the TV button then MENU. Press the arrow buttons on the remote to highlight one of the items listed in the menu. Use the up or down arrow button to move up or down. Use the right or left arrow button to move right or left.

To select the item that you’ve highlighted, press OK.

Note: Highlighted means that the menu item stands out from other menu items on the list (appears darker, brighter, or a different color).

Turn on the TV

Press TV on the remote, or press POWER on the TV’s front panel.

Note: Pressing the TV button turns on the TV and puts the remote into TV mode. “TV mode” means that the buttons on the remote control operate the TV’s functions.
