Toshiba 46HM15, 62HM15A Tuning your favorite channels, Tuning to the next programmed channel

Chapter 8: Using the TV’s features

Tuning channels (continued)

Tuning your favorite channels

To tune to the channels you programmed as Favorite Channels, see page 44.

Tuning to the next programmed channel

To tune to the next programmed channel:

Press CHANNEL y or z on the remote control or TV front panel.

Note:

•This feature will not work unless you program channels into the TV’s channel memory (see page 42).

•If you are recording a digital channel, you will only be able to change analog channels while the recording is in progress. If you are recording an analog channel, you will only be able to change digital channels while the recording is in progress. This is because the TV tuner that is being recorded (digital or analog) will be locked on the channel that is currently recording.

Tuning to a specific channel (programmed or unprogrammed)

Tuning analog channels:

Press the Channel Number buttons (0–9) on the remote control. For example, to select channel 125, press 1, 2, 5.

Tuning digital channels:

Press the Channel Number buttons (0–9) on the remote control, followed by the – (dash) button and then the sub- channel number. For example, to select digital channel 125-1, press 1, 2, 5, –, 1.

Note: If a digital channel is not programmed—either through the automatic channel scan (page 42) or the channel add/ delete function (page 43)—you will have to tune the RF channel using the Channel Number and Dash buttons on the remote control.

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 CH RTN on the remote control. The previous channel will display. Each time you press CH RTN, the TV will switch back and forth between the last two channels that were selected.

Note:

•If you press CH RTN from a non-antenna input, the TV will return to the last-viewed ANT input and channel.

•If you are currently recording a program, this feature will not be available.

Switching between two channels using SurfLock™

The SurfLock™ feature temporarily “memorizes” one channel in the CH RTN button, so you can return to that channel quickly from any other channel by pressing CH RTN.

To memorize a channel in the CH RTN button:

1.Select the channel you want to program into the CH RTN button.

2.Press and hold CH RTN for about 2 seconds until the message “Channel Memorized” appears on the screen. The channel has been programmed into the CH RTN button.

3.You can then change channels repeatedly, and when you press press CH RTN, the memorized channel will be selected.

The TV will return to the memorized channel one time only. Once you press CH RTN and 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 were selected.
