Advanced Twin Tuner
™
Picture-In-Picture
Two built-in, independent tuning
systems allow both large-picture
and small-picture viewing without
the need for a second external
video source (e.g., VCR). In addition
to the standard RCA PIP feature of
Swap, the Twin Tuner PIP System
also provides:
–Continuous Move
Permits placement of the small
picture anywhere on the screen.
–Commercial Skip-to-PIP
This exclusive RCA feature allows
the main picture to move to the
PIP window simultaneously with
the activation of an on-screen
countdown timer. The viewer
can then monitor the original
program while browsing
through other channels
during commercial breaks.
•
Countdown timer returns TV
to original channel, so other
channels can be browsed
during program breaks.
• Auto Tune
After initial setup, just pressing
one component button on the
TV’s remote (either VCR, RCA

System, cable, or DVD)
turns on both the TV and the

tunes the TV to the correct
viewing channel. Just one press!
