Switching between two channels using
Channel Return
The Channel Return feature allows you to switch between two
channels without entering an actual channel number each time.
Select the first channel you want to view.
Select a second channel using the Channel Number
buttons (and the dash (
) button if selecting a digital
channel).
Press
on the remote control. The previous channel
will display. Each time you press
, the TV will switch
back and forth between the last two channels that were
tuned.
Note:
If you press
from a non-antenna input, the TV
will return to the last-viewed input.
Switching between two channels using
SurfLock™
The SurfLock™ feature temporarily “memorizes” one channel
to the
button, so you can return to that channel quickly
from any other channel by pressing
. To memorize a
channel to the
button:
Tune the TV to the channel you want to program into the
button.
Press and hold
for about 2 seconds until the message
“Memorized” appears on-screen. The channel has been
programmed to the
button.
You can then change channels repeatedly, and when you
press
, the memorized channel will be tuned.
The TV will return to the memorized channel one time only.
Once you press
and then change channels again, the CH
RTN memory will be cleared and the button will function as
Channel Return, by switching back and forth between the
last two channels that are tuned.This feature also works for
external inputs.
