You do not need a special TV to watch two
programs at the same time. Use the picture-
in-picture (PIP) keys on the remote control, and
you will see a PIP screen on your TV.
Record One Program While
Watching Another
When two of your favorite programs are
scheduled at the same time, you can record
one program on the built-in DVR while
watching the other. Use the DVR keys on the
remote control to record programs or to play
back recorded programs.
Avoid Screen Burn-In!
Images such as letterbox bars or side bars, bright closed-captioning
backgrounds, station logos, or any other stationary images may cause the
picture tube in your TV to age unevenly; this is known as screen burn-in.
Refer to the user’s guide that came with your TV for more information.
