Using Channel Zapping

Channel zapping lets you get a quick look at programs broadcast on up to seven additional channels while you’re watching a TV program on an eighth channel. If you see a different channel that you want to watch, you can make it your main program.

To use channel zapping, you must be watching a cable or broadcast program received through the ANT 1 port (as shown on page 17). The factory-installed jumper cable that connects the ANT 2 and RF Output ports also has to be in place. Follow the steps below to turn off the ANT 2 port; this frees the necessary tuner.

Turning Off the ANT 2 Port

1Make sure the jumper cable connecting the ANT 2 and RF Output ports is still installed on the back of your TV.

2Press the Menu button on the TV panel or remote control. You see the Video menu.

3Press Next > to highlight Channel, then press Enter.

4Press Select d to highlight Use of Ant. 2, then press Next > to select OFF.

5Press Menu to exit the menu system.

Note

You also need to turn off the V-Chip feature to use channel zapping. See page 55 for instructions.
