•Your TV remote control may not operate certain features on your external device. Refer to the owner’s manual for your other device to determine its available features. If your TV remote control does not operate a specific feature on another device, use the remote control that came with the device (- pages 25–29).

Channel tuning problems

•The channel may be blocked by the Channels Block feature. Unblock the channel (- page 52).

•If you are unable to tune digital channels, check the antenna configuration (- page 32). If you are still unable to tune digital channels, clear all channels from the channel list (- page 34) and reprogram channels into the channel memory (- page 33). If you are still unable to tune digital channels, use the Reset Factory Defaults procedure (- page 37). Also see “TV stops responding to controls” and “Other problems”
