Interactive Setup

Labeling the Channels

This last step in the Interactive Setup lets you edit your channel list and
label your channels. (For more, see List and Labels in the 

Features and

Menus 

section.)

SETUP

Would you like to name each
channel?

1 Name channels

2 Skip this step

1.

Press MENU or OK to bring up the 

List and Labels

 control panel.

LIST AND LABELS

Channel

Normal 

 Channel

 #     

List   

 Label

 59      

 Yes   

------

Use   or  , keypad,  or CH ^/v 
to set channel, MENU to exit.

2.

Use the left and right arrows to point to the three different areas of
the control panel (called “fields”).

3.

Use the up and down arrows to scroll through the numbers in the

Channel #

 field, letters in the 

Channel Label

 field, and select 

Yes 

or

No 

in the 

Normal List

 field. You may wish to refer to the call letters

listed in your newspaper’s TV section for ideas on labeling the
channels.

4.

Repeat this process for each of your channels. Then press MENU or
OK to continue. The TV can store up to 27 labels in memory.

Use the CH ^ (channel up) or CH v
(channel down) buttons to change
channels in the Channel # field. This
works even if you’re not in the Channel #
field. Or, enter the channel number
directly using the number buttons on the
universal remote. To enter a number
greater than 99, press and hold “1” to
enter the hundreds digit, then press the
two remaining numbers.

The 

List and Labels

 feature can also be

accessed from the Channel menu. Because
this procedure can be time consuming,
feel free to skip this step and come back
to it later.
