Connections & Setup  
TV Setup  
To set up your TV to tune to channels, you must first choose which type of signal it is receiving.  
Choosing Your Signal  
1. Locate the TV/CATV button underneath your unit.  
2. If you have a dipole antenna connected to your TV, press the button so that TV is displayed to  
the left of the channel number on the LCD panel display. If you are using cable or a cable box  
for your TV signals, press the button until the LCD panel display shows the correct signal type:  
STD for standard cable or HRC or IRC for certain cable systems.  
Complete Auto Channel Search  
1. Locate the AUTO PROGRAM button underneath your unit.  
2. Press the button to begin channel search. This 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 channel list; inactive channels (weak stations or channels with no signal at all) will be  
removed from the channel list.  
Adding or Removing Channels  
You might want to add or remove channels if some of them are not active, have weak signals, or  
you do not want them in your channel memory. A channel that has been removed can still be  
selected by pressing the remote control’s number buttons.  
1. If your TV is not on, press the TV button.  
2. Tune to the station you want to delete by using the CH up or down button. To tune to a station  
you want to add, enter the number using the number buttons on the remote control.  
3. Press the ADD/DELETE button underneath your unit to add or delete the station.
