Changing Lists and Labels

The List & Labels part of the setup lets you edit your channel list and choose or 
create a personal six-character label for each channel.

Note: Changing List and Labels can be time consuming. You can change 
these at a later time by accessing the Setup menu. 

1.    Press the left or right arrow to scroll through the channels and choose the 

one you want to edit.

2.

   

Press the down arrow to highlight the 

In channel list

 option. Press the left 

or right arrow button to add (the box is checked) or remove (the box is 
unchecked) the channel from the list.

3.

   

Press the down arrow to highlight the 

Channel label

 option. Press the left 

or right arrow button to scroll through the available list of 25 most common 
labels. The last option in the list allows you to create your own six-
character label for the channel (the first letter of the label is highlighted). 

4.    Press the 1 or 2 number button to change the first letter of the label. 

5.    Press the right arrow to highlight the second letter, then press the 1 or 2 

number button to change the second letter, etc...  

6.    When you are finished creating your label, press OK. Select 

Go back

 to go 

to the 

Auto Convergence

 menu.

Auto Convergence

Your TV’s picture tubes might have been disturbed during delivery or after you 
moved the TV, causing the color in your TV to be out of alignment. The colors 
adjust by starting auto convergence.

IMPORTANT: Auto convergence works best once the TV has warmed up 
for at least an hour. If you've just unpacked your TV, it's a good idea to 
repeat the Auto convergence function when the TV's been running for at 
least an hour. See page 38 for more information about Auto convergence. 

1.    Press OK to begin auto convergence.

2.    When the auto convergence is complete, the 

Red center convergence

 menu 

appears. The cross in the middle of the screen should be yellow. If it is not, 
use the arrow buttons to move the red cross to overlap the green cross. 
Press OK when adjustments are complete.

3.    The 

Blue center convergence

 menu appears with a cyan cross in the middle 

of the screen. If it is not, use the arrow buttons to move the blue cross 
to overlap the green cross. Press OK (the TV tunes to the last selected/
available channel in the channel list).

Note:

If you're using an HD source (such as an 
HDTV tuner or HDTV satellite receiver) on the 
CMPNT or DVI input, you should run Auto 
convergence separately for that input as well. 
Tune to the input you're using for the HD 
source, then go to page 38 for information 
on Auto convergence.
