Scanning for TV channels
Before you can watch TV channels in your area, you need to let the TV
scan for available TV channels and store them in the TV channel list.
To scan for channels:
1 Make sure that you have inserted the batteries in the remote
control, connected the antenna to the TV, and connect the AC
power.
2 Press (Power), then wait several seconds.
3 Press MENU. The initial on-screen menu opens.
4 Press or to highlight TV. The TV menu opens.
5 Press to highlight Antenna/Cable, then press or to
select Air or Cable, depending on the type of antenna
connection you have.
6 Press to highlight Auto Scan, then press to open the
Channel Scan submenu.
7 Press or to select Start, then press ENTER to automatically
scan for available channels.
Auto Scan may take a while to complete. A progress report is
displayed while your TV is scanning for available channels. You
can press ENTER or EXIT to exit Auto Scan prior to completion,
but you will need to run Auto Scan later to complete the process.
Auto Scan creates a list of available/receivable channels for the
selected signal input.
