How to Use the Remote Control to

your choice and select it.

To move the cursor, use the up and down arrow buttons. To change an item’s
setting, use the left and right arrow buttons.

Press OK or the right arrow button to select an item.

Turn on the TV

Press the ON•OFF button on the remote control or the POWER button on the
TV itself.
