What’s on the first Tuning menu… Freq
The frequency of the stations. You prompt the TV to search for a station. The tuning stops at the first station producing an acceptable signal. If you wish to continue searching, press ▲ or ▼ again. If you know the exact frequency, you can key it in directly*.
*Note: See the list on page 11 for a conversion of TV channel numbers to frequencies.

Fine tuning of a station. The TV automatically tunes to the best possible picture. If neighbouring channels blur the picture slightly, fine tuning may be necessary.
You fine tune by 1 step below or above the standard frequency.

For example:

Note: Not all TVs are equipped to receive all systems.
Decoder
If you need a decoder for a station – the TV can cut in a decoder automatically for the station in question. On indicates cutting the decoder in and Off no decoder. In order for Decoder to appear on the menu, however, you must register your Decoder, see Registering extra equipment, pages
What’s on the second Tuning menu… Pg
Program number – you can use the program numbers
If the station/frequency has already been stored, a program number appears under Pg when you call up the second tuning menu.
Name
A name may contain 10 characters (indicated by the 10 dots in the menu), including the letters from A to Z, numbers and full stop. The first of the 10 dots blinks, indicating that you can start “writing” a name.
You must reveal the characters for the positions you wish to fill in. Press ▲ until the letter you want is revealed, press tt to move to next position and press ▲ or ▼ to reveal letters. To switch from upper to lower case, or vice versa, press 0.
When you start “writing” a name, the dots disappear. The name is automatically transferred to the program list. See the next page for further details of the program list.
Every time you select a station you have named, the name appears briefly on the screen.
Sound
Several types of sound may be available for a TV station e.g. both stereo and mono sound, or two or three different languages. You can choose to store a specific type of sound or language with your station.
The options are… |
| |
Mono | Mono sound | |
Stereo | Stereo sound | |
Language 1 – mono | ||
Language 2 | – mono | |
Language 3 | – mono | |
Language 2 | – stereo | |
Store
Finally, accepting Store stores your station and returns you to Tuning in the Setup menu. You still have an opportunity, though, to remove all the data you have entered by revealing Clear instead of Store in the menu. Use ▲ or ▼ to reveal Clear instead of Store and then press GO.
Clearing a stored station…
If you want to clear a station, you have tuned in already, switch on to the program number you want to clear, then call up the second Tuning menu as explained on these two pages. Once the menu appears, make sure the correct program number is displayed, move to Store and press ▼ to reveal Clear instead of Store and press GO.
