Chapter 6: Using the TV’s features

Adding and clearing channels and inputs in the History List

Adding channels and inputs to the History List:

As a channel or input is tuned, the Channel Browser™ adds it to the History List and displays it on the “right side” of the Channel Browser™. Previously tuned channels/inputs are “shifted” to the left, eventually moving off the left side. Press 3 C to surf backward through the previously tuned channels/ inputs. Any channel or input that is tuned repeatedly will not be repeated in the History List, but instead is moved to the end of the list on the right side of the Channel Browser™.

The Channel Browser™ will store the following channels:

•All channels that are tuned using the numeric buttons on the remote control.

•All channels that are tuned using <or ,on the remote control.

Note: Whenever an item is selected that cannot be tuned (for various reasons), the TV will automatically tune to the previously viewed channel or input.

Clearing channels from the History List:

•Reconfiguring the ANT/CABLE input will clear the History List.

Note: See page 36 for details on configuring the ANT/ CABLE input.

•Once 32 channels or inputs are stored in the History List, the oldest item will be removed from the list when a new channel or input is tuned.

•Turning off the TV will clear the History List.
