Why You Should Use the Autotuning Feature
The autotuning feature automatically tunes the TV to the correct channel for different
components you have connected to your TV (like a VCR, DVD Player, etc.) When you set up
autotuning in the menu system you don’t have to remember to change your TV to channel 3, for
example, when you want to watch the tape in your VCR.
How to Set Up the Autotuning Feature
The way you set up the autotuning feature in the TV’s menu corresponds to the component
buttons on the remote and the way you have each component connected to your TV. When you
set up autotuning, you’re telling the TV what channel to tune to when you press the VCR1, VCR2,
DVD, or SAT•CABLE button on the remote control.
