Completing the Basic Setup

Finding Your Channels

After you connect your cable and antenna sources, you are ready to find the available channels on those sources. These are the channels you can receive on the TV tuner using the Ch+ and Ch– buttons.

TIP: If you have a cable box or satellite receiver, you must set up that device to view channels from that source. The TV tuner receives channels from only the antenna and cable inputs.

NOTE: The following steps can take from one minute up to 30 minutes or more.

If you have an antenna connected to the antenna input:

1.On the remote control, press Settings and go to Setup > Channel setup > Auto search antenna, and then press OK.

2.Wait for the TV to scan all channels available from the antenna.

If you have cable service connected to the cable input:

1.Press Settings and go to Setup > Channel setup > Cable service. Ask your cable provider if either HRC or IRC is used and, if so, change this setting accordingly. For most cable providers, use the standard setting.

2.On the remote control, press Settings and go to Setup > Channel setup > Auto search cable, and then press OK.

3.Wait for the TV to scan all channels.

After all channels are found, you can manually add or remove channels from the list. See “Adding or Deleting a Channel” on page 51.
