Make sure you have already connected your TV to devices and a signal source, plugged in the TV, and put batteries in the remote. Now, turn on the TV and start the setup. • Set the Menu Language. Press OK to select English and continue to the next step. Press the down arrow button to choose another language for the menu system and then press OK. • Choose the Signal Source. Press the right arrow button to select Cable or Antenna. Press the down arrow button to highlight Auto Channel Search. Go to Complete the Channel Search below. • Complete the Channel Search. With Auto Channel Search highlighted, press OK to begin the channel search. There are several things to be aware of when the TV's searches for channels. If you chose Cable as your signal type, the search takes a while because it's looking for analog and digital channels, and then it's removing scrambled channels found. Here is what happens during the search: 1. The search first looks for digital channels and places the number of channels found next to Digital Channels found. This number will probably seem like a lot. This is because the number includes both scrambled (for example, Pay Per View) and non-scrambled channels. These channels are dependent upon what your cable company is sending. 2. The search then looks for analog channels and places the number of channels found next to Analog Channels found. 3. The search might appear as if it is complete, but as long as the search says Running, it is still in progress. What's happening at this point is the TV is removing scrambled channels from the channel list. When the search is finally complete, the Channel setup menu will look as the picture to the left shows. To exit the menu system, press CLEAR.

Watching TV Changing Channels • If you have both analog and digital cable channels these will be put into the same channel list. When you change channels, look for an A at the bottom of the screen to see if you're viewing an analog channel; look for a D to see if you're viewing a digital channel. • Depending upon the type of signals you have connected to your HDTV, you might notice the channels change slower than you're used to. This is perfectly normal. Digital channels sometimes take longer to tune. Entering Channel Numbers To tune to a channel, enter the channel number and press OK or wait a few seconds for the channel to tune. Digital channels can have both primary channels (like the analog channel number) and subchannels. If 6 is the primary channel and 1 is the subchannel, for example, the channel looks like 6.1 on screen. To tune to a digital channel with a subchannel, such as 6.1, enter the primary channel number (6), then press the SUB CH button. Enter the subchannel number (1) and press OK. Changing Screen Formats Your TV allows you to change the format of the picture you're viewing by pressing the ZOOM +/- button on your remote. Depending on the type of signal you're viewing, you might not be able to change the format. Viewing Devices Connected to Your TV To view devices connected to your TV, press the INPUT button to toggle through the inputs. Choose the input name that matches the input of the device you connected. Your choices are VID1, VID2, CMP1, CMP2, VGA, HDMI1, and HDMI2. Thank you for your purchase.
