Checking the Digital-Signal Strength

Unlike analog channels, which can vary in reception quality from “snowy” to clear, digital (HDTV) channels have either perfect reception quality or you will not receive them at all. So, unlike analog channels, you cannot fine tune a digital channel. You can, however, adjust your antenna to improve the reception of available digital channels.

Using the R.Surf Feature

This feature allows you to set the TV to return to a particular channel after a certain amount of time. For example, you may be watching a channel when commercials start. You can set the R.Surf to “5 minutes”, then switch channels. After 5 minutes, the TV will return to the original channel. To use the R.Surf feature:

Surf 1:30

1.While you are watching the channel to which you want to return, press the R.SURF button. The “Surf Off” is displayed.

2.Press the R.SURF button again to set the timer in thirty second intervals, up to five minutes.

The time will start decreasing while you are setting up the timer, and will reset after 5 minutes has passed or you turn it off.

3.The time you set will begin counting down on the screen. When the time runs out, the TV will return to the channel you were watching when you set the timer.
