Chapter 6: Using the TV’s features

Clearing channels from the History List:

Reconfiguring the ANT input will clear the History List.

Note: See page 39 for details on configuring the antenna input.

Once 32 channels or inputs are stored in the History List, the oldest item will be removed from the list when a new channel or input is tuned.

If History List in the Channel Browser Setup is set to “Power Off Clear (On),” turning off the TV will clear the History List.

Switching between two channels using SurfLock

The SurfLockfeature temporarily “memorizes” one channel to the Rbutton, so you can return to that channel quickly from any other channel by pressing R. To memorize a channel to the Rbutton:

1 Tune the TV to the channel you want to program into the

Rbutton.

2 Press and hold Rfor about 2 seconds until the message “Channel Memorized” appears on-screen. The channel has been programmed to the Rbutton.

3 You can then change channels repeatedly, and when you press R, the memorized channel will be tuned.

The TV will return to the memorized channel one time only. Once you press Rand then change channels again, the CH RTN memory will be cleared and the button will function as Channel Return, by switching back and forth between the last two channels that are tuned.This feature also works for external inputs.
