Complete the Interactive Setup

The menu system in your TV allows the TV’s features to work properly. In this book, we call it the “interactive setup” because the TV asks you questions, you answer, and the TV makes the appropriate adjustments. The first time you turn on your TV, the setup screens appear automatically.

Note: If you skip Auto Channel Search now, you can access it later through the Channel menu. See Chapter 3 for more details.

The GUIDE Plus+ System Setup

The GUIDE Plus+ system is an on-screen interactive program guide that lists what shows are on TV in your area. In order to receive program listings, you need to complete the following steps.
