Using the TV’s Menu System
Channel Menu
Signal Type Displays a choice list that lets you select the current antenna
type. This option does not appear when the GUIDE Plus+ system is set up.
UHF/VHF Antenna Choose this if you are currently using an off-air
antenna for TV signals.
Cable TV Choose this if you are currently using cable or a cable box for
TV signals.
Auto Channel Search Tells the TV to search automatically for all the channels
available through the antenna input. When the TV finds an active channel, it
places it in the Normal channel list; inactive channels (weak stations or
channels with no signal at all) will be removed from the channel list. If you are
using a cable box and have set up the GUIDE Plus+ system, this option does
not appear.
List and Labels Displays a control panel that lets you edit your Normal
channel list and choose a six-character label for each channel. Follow the on-
screen directions to enter your channels and other information.
Channel # Use the up and down arrows to scroll up and down through
the channels available via your antenna. You can enter the channel number
directly using the number buttons.
Normal List Only the channels included in the Normal list are available
when you scan up and down using channel up and down. Use the up and
down arrow buttons to indicate whether the channel number indicated is
included (Yes) or is not included (No) in the Normal channel list.
Channel Label Use the up and down arrow buttons to enter a six-
character label for each channel. Hold the button down to scroll quickly
through the characters. The TV can store up to 27 labels in memory.
Time Menu
Sleep Timer Displays a control panel that lets you select the amount of time
you want to give the TV before it shuts itself off.
Schedule Displays a control panel that lets you set up a schedule for turning
the TV on and off automatically. Reminder: you must turn the schedule On. The
on-screen directions guide you through the steps needed to set the schedule.
Set Time Displays a control panel that lets you enter the current time. The on-
screen directions guide you through the steps needed to set the time. If your
GUIDE Plus+ system is set up, it will automatically update your time and this
option will not appear.
