VCR Channels List
Your VCR may come with a list of channels preset at the factory. Even though it
may come with such a list, you may want to add or delete certain channels.
Note : If you use a cable box to view all channels , this step is not necessary.
Auto Channel Searching
Note : Use Auto Channel Search to place all available channels in memory.
If you ever change cable or antenna signals, you may need to run the Auto
Channel Search feature again.
1. Press the MENU button to display the main MENU .
2. Press 3 to select CHANNELS SET .
3. Press 1 to select AUTO CHANNEL SEARCH .
4. Select one of the three options:
Cable TV searches for cable stations.
Antenna searches for local broadcast stations.
Detect Automatically decides which input to use for you.
Note : With Detect Automatically , a strong cable or antenna signal in your
area may cause channels to be detected inaccurately. If this should
happen, manually select the input signal for the system you have.
The VCR begins scanning for channels available in the area (taking about
one-to-two minutes). When scanning is complete, the VCR tunes to the
lowest channel available. After completing Auto Channel Search, pressing
