Chapter 4: Using the TV's Features

Sample displays on a Channel Banner.

Why You Should Use the Autotuning Feature

The autotuning feature automatically tunes the TV to the correct channel for different components you have connected to your TV/DVD (like a VCR)
When you set up autotuning in the menu system you don't have to remember to change your TV to channel 3, for example, when you want to watch
the tape in your VCR.

How to Set Up the Autotuning Feature

The way you set up the autotuning feature in the TV's menu corresponds to the component buttons on the remote and the way you have each
component connected to your TV/DVD. When you set up autotuning, you're telling the TV what channel to tune to when you press the VCR1, VCR2, or
SAT•CABLE button on the remote control.
1. Press MENU (the MAIN MENU appears).
2. Highlight Setup and press OK on your remote control.
3. Highlight Autotuning and press OK.
4. Choose which channel you would like to set:
Set VCR 1 Channel Lets you set up the channel the TV tunes to when you press the VCR1 button.
Set VCR 2 Channel Lets you set up the channel the TV tunes to when you press the VCR2 button.
Set SAT/Cable Channel Lets you set up the channel the TV tunes to when you press the SAT•CABLE button on an RCA satellite receiver remote.
(The RCA DTC100 HD receiver is considered a satellite device and can be set up for autotuning using this channel.)
