To watch TV on antenna, cable, a VCR, DVD or any other piece of equipment,
you have to make sure you’ve set your Entertainment Machine to the
correct source. Check page 20 to see how to use the Source menu. The
current source is displayed on the top line of the Channel/Time display.
It will show a channel number if the source is Ant/Cable 1 or 2, and
read the name of the source (such as VCR) for anything else.
Click the Ch. Up/Ch. Down text to move through the channels, or use
the CHANNEL UP/DOWN arrows on your remote to move through your
channel list.
Skip to a specific channel by clicking on the ALL CH text and then
double-clicking on a number, or by entering the number of the channel
on the NUMBER KEYPAD on your remote.
To instantly return to the last channel you were watching, click FLSHBK,
or press the FLSHBK button on your remote.
This is while the source is set to Ant/Cable 1 or 2. For any other
source, such as a VCR or DVD player, the Main Picture channel
changing will be controlled by that equipment.
Click on any part of the Volume bar to jump to that sound level, or click
on the small arrows to move in small increments. You can also use the
VOLUME RIGHT/LEFT buttons on your remote to adjust the volume level.
Clicking once on the Speaker Icon in the Volume display will put your
Entertainment Machine into SOFT MUTE. Clicking again will MUTE it
completely, and once more will bring the sound back. Or, using the
buttons on your remote, press MUTE once to reduce the sound level to
the SOFT MUTE level. Press once more to completely MUTE the sound.
Press again to return to full sound level.
