Key Features Overview
Your TV is equipped with features that will ad to your TV watching experience. The following
information summarizes a few of these features. Chapter 2 provides more information about the
rest of the TV’s features and how to use them.
On-screen Program Guide
Description: The GUIDE Plus+ system is an on-screen interactive list of
programs and information that is built into your TV. You can scroll through the
guide to see what’s on and tune directly to that program from the guide. You
can also browse programs by category with the sort feature.
When you access the News feature, MSNBC will appear in your video window if
it’s available through your TV.
One-Touch VCR Recording is another benefit of the GUIDE Plus+ system. You
don’t have to remember to program your VCR or use the menus in your VCR to
set up a recording.
Requirements:
• Remove the Demo Pin from the G-LINK jack.
• Complete the on-screen interactive setup. You’ll find detailed instructions in
Chapter 1.
• One-Touch VCR Recording: You must connect the G-LINK cable to the TV
and place one of the wands in front of the remote sensor on the VCR.
• If you have a cable box, connect the G-LINK cable to the TV and place one
of the wands in front of the remote sensor on the cable box.
V-Chip: Parental Controls
Description: You can block programs and movies by content, age-based
ratings, and/or movie ratings.
Requirements:
• Set up the Parental Controls menu in the TV’s main menu (Chapter 2 has
details).
• The broadcasters must use the rating system when they send the program to
your TV in order for your TV to block the program.
