Chapter 5: Setting up your TV
Programming channels into the TV’s channel memory
When you press or on the remote control or
TV control panel, your TV will stop only on the
channels you programmed into the TV’s channel
memory.
Follow the steps below to program channels into
the TV’s channel memory.

Programming channels automatically

Your TV can automatically detect all active
channels in your area and store them in its
memory. After the channels are programmed
automatically, you can manually add or skip
individual channels in the channel memory.
Note:
•You must configure the ANT/CABLE input
source before programming channels
( Page 28).
•The automatic channel programming
process will erase channels that were
previously programmed into the TV’s
memory.
•To tune the TV to a channel not
programmed in the channel memory, you
must use the Channel Number buttons on
the remote control.
•Programming channels when the ANT/
CABLE input is configured for Cable will
take substantially longer than when the
antenna input is configured for Antenna.
This is normal; however, once channel
programming is finished, you should not
have to repeat the programming process
again unless your Cable TV service lineup
changes significantly.
