Switching between two channels using Channel Return

The Channel Return feature allows you to switch between two channels without entering an actual channel number each time.

1 Select the first channel you want to view.

2 Select a second channel using the Channel Number buttons (and the dash (=) button if selecting a digital channel).

3 Press Ron the remote control. The previous channel will display. Each time you press R, the TV will switch back and forth between the last two channels that were tuned.

Note: If you press Rfrom a non-antenna input, the TV will return to the last-viewed ANT input and channel.

Switching between two channels using SurfLock

The SurfLockfeature temporarily “memorizes” one channel in the Rbutton, so you can return to that channel quickly from any other channel by pressing R.

To memorize a channel in the Rbutton:

1 Tune the TV to the channel you want to program into the

Rbutton.

2 Press and hold Rfor about 2 seconds until the message “Channel Memorized” appears on-screen. The channel has been programmed into the Rbutton.

3 You can then change channels repeatedly, and when you press R, the memorized channel will be tuned.

The TV will return to the memorized channel one time only. Once you press Rand then change channels again, the CH RTN memory will be cleared and the button will function as Channel Return, by switching back and forth between the last two channels that are tuned.
