Questions and answers
Initial scan for channels failed how do I rescan?
To rescan channels on the Manhattan T3-R, go to the Retune option in the settings. You have two choices:
1. Smart Retune – This keeps your favourites, protected channels, scheduled recordings, reminders, and regional selection.
2. Full Retune – This clears all settings and is necessary if you have moved to a new address.
Both options will restore any deleted channels. You can also use Manual Tune to scan a specific UHF channel, which is quicker than a full or smart retune.
