Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:
The Issue
If you are like most consumers, you have a TV in your home.
Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing
trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however, they are not always supported on the proper TV stands.
Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriately
situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over, causing
unnecessary injury.
Toshiba Cares!
The consumer electronics industry is committed
to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.
The Consumer Electronics Association formed
the Home Entertainment Support Safety Committee, comprised of TV and consumer
electronics furniture manufacturers, to advocate
childrens safety and educate consumers and their
families about television safety.
Tune Into Safety
One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate furniture large enough to
support the weight of your TV (and other electronic components).
Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure your
furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly into the TV).
Carefully read and understand the other enclosed instructions for
proper use of this product.
Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture and TVs.Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR, remote
control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.
Remember that children can become excited while watching
a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.
Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of
with your family and friends. Thank you!

Important notes about your Plasma TV
The following symptoms are not signs of malfunction, but rather technical limitations of plasma TV technology.
1) The display of this Plasma TV radiates infrared rays. It may affect other infrared communication equipment under certain operating conditions.
2) Under certain conditions, the display of this Plasma TV may cause interference with the audio and/or video of certain types of electronic equipment that easily receive electromagnetic waves (e.g., AM radios and video equipment). In particular, the display of this Plasma TV may affect certain types of electronic equipment that are located beyond the area where the Plasma TV is being used.
3) The display panel of this Plasma TV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology. However, occasionally some parts of the screen may be missing picture elements and/or have luminous spots.
4) You can enjoy playing video games on this Plasma TV. However, certain video games that utilize so-called “light gun joysticks for shooting at on-screen targets may not work with this Plasma TV.
5) Possible Adverse Effects on Plasma Display Like all phosphor-based display devices and all gas-based
plasma displays, the display of this Plasma TV may be susceptible to permanent ghost images (also known as phosphor burn-in) under certain circumstances. Certain operating conditions may accelerate the potential for phosphor burn-in, including but not limited to the following:
Displaying fixed (non-moving) images, including but
not limited to PIP/POP windows, closed captions, video game patterns, TV station logos, stock tickers, and websites.
About the Sticking Image Protection feature
This TV contains a Sticking Image Protection feature that automatically starts to decrease the picture brightness in small increments when a fixed (non-moving) image is displayed on-screen for an extended period of time. This feature helps to reduce and delay the potential for phosphor burn-in. The time delay and rate of decreasing picture brightness depend on the brightness of the displayed image.

from that to which the receiver is connected.
for help.
Displaying special formats that do not use the entire
screen, including but not limited to widescreen or letterbox format media viewed on a 4:3 aspect ratio display (with gray or black bars at the top and bottom of the screen) and 4:3 aspect ratio format media viewed on a widescreen/16:9 aspect ratio display (with gray or black bars on the left and right sides of the screen).
To minimize the potential for the occurrence of phosphor burn-in, Toshiba recommends the following:
Display a moving image on the display of your Plasma TV whenever possible.
Always turn off the power of your Plasma TV when you are finished using it.
Reduce the Brightness and Contrast levels as much as possible without impairing image quality.
Enable the Long Life settings (see page 94).
Try to display images that have many colors and color
gradations (i.e., photographic or photo-realistic images).
Try to display images that have minimal contrast between light and dark areas (e.g., avoid white characters on black backgrounds).
Try to avoid displaying images that have few colors and/ or that have distinct, sharply defined borders between colors.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Overview of cable types
Note: Two dual-wand IR blaster/G-LINK™ cables are included with your TV. All other required cables, if not provided with your other devices, can be purchased at many electronics accessory suppliers.
Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna, cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT 1 and/or ANT 2 RF inputs on your TV.
Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of three, and are for use with video devices with standard audio and standard (composite) video output. These cables (and the related inputs on your TV) are typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio.
S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection.
Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance than a composite video cable. If you connect an S-video cable, be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video cable or the picture performance will be unacceptable.
Component video cables come in sets of three and are for use with video devices with component video output. (ColorStream These cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection.
Note: Component video cables provide better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable.
HDMI cable is for use with devices with HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) output. HDMI cable delivers digital audio and video in its native format. This cable carries both video and audio information; therefore, separate audio cables are not required for a complete HDMI device connection. See page 20 for further details.
Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable.
IEEE1394 cable is for use with video devices with compressed digital video output that meet CEA specifications for IEEE1394. This cable carries both video and audio information; therefore, no separate audio cables are required for a complete connection. See pages 23–25.
Note:
•The transmission capability of any IEEE1394 cable used with this TV must be S400 (400 Mbps maximum).
•IEEE1394 cable provides better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable.
Dual-wand IR blaster/G-LINK™ cable is for use with video devices with IR (infrared) remote control. Two of these cables are included with your TV. One is for connection to the G-LINK
terminal (page 26) to enable TV Guide On Screen™ recording features (Chapters 5 and 7). The other can be used with the TVs IR pass-through feature (page 22) and TheaterNet
Note: The two IR blaster/G-LINK™ cables included with your TV have specific characteristics that allow them to work properly with this TV’s IR OUT and G-LINK™ ports. Never use other aftermarket IR blaster or G-LINK™ cables with this TV. Other cables may not function properly and can cause damage. THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR TOSHIBA WARRANTY.
Optical audio cable is for connecting receivers with Dolby Digital or PCM (pulse-code modulation) optical audio input to the TVs DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal. See page 21.

About the connection illustrations
You can connect different types and brands of devices to your TV in several different configurations. The connection illustrations in this manual are representative of typical device connections only. The input/output terminals on your devices may differ from those illustrated herein. For details on connecting and using your specific devices, refer to each device’s owner’s manual.
Connecting a digital CableCARD
This digital television is capable of receiving analog basic, digital basic, and digital premium cable television programming by direct connection to a cable system providing such programming.
A security card (such as a digital CableCARD™), provided by your cable operator, is required to view encrypted digital programming.
Certain advanced and interactive digital cable services (such as video-on-demand, a cable operator’s enhanced program guide, and data-enhanced television services) will not work with the use of a CableCARD
and may require the use of a separate set-
top box from your cable operator. For more information, call your local cable operator.
You will need:
one digital CableCARD
(contact your cable operator)
digital cable subscription service (contact your cable
operator)
TV back panel
From digital Cable service (connect to ANT 1 only)
To view encrypted digital channels:
1. Connect your digital Cable TV cable to ANT 1.
2. With the front of the CableCARD the CableCARD
slot on the back of the TV (see
facing up, insert it into
illustration below left).
3. After the CableCARD™ is inserted, a CableCARD™ option appears in the Applications menu, with informational screens provided by your digital CableCARD
service. See
page 53 for additional information.
CableCard Connected -- Acquiring channel information.
CableCard services will only operate with cable signal connected to Antenna 1.
Note:
• Always use the EJECT button to remove the CableCARD™. Never
remove the CableCARD™ by hand.
• Never insert any object or card (including, without limitation, a
PCMCIA card) other than a CableCARD™ into the CableCARD™ slot.
• Always make sure the CableCARD™ is facing the correct direction.
• Connect the cable for your digital cable TV service to ANT 1 only.
•When using a CableCARD™, channel programming is unnecessary
because the CableCARD™ automatically loads the cable channel list into the TV’s channel memory (page 44).
•The CableCARD™ may take up to 5 minutes to “pair” with the TV
and download channel information. CableCARD™ information and channels will not be available until this process is completed.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Controlling infrared remote-controlled devices through the TV (IR pass-through)
Front of IR-controlled DVD player (for example)
You can use the TV’s IR OUT terminal (infrared pass-through) to remotely operate (through the TV) many infrared remote­controlled devices (such as a Toshiba infrared remote-controlled VCR or DVD player) enclosed within an entertainment center or similar cabinet. Without the IR OUT connection, the device typically would need to be visible to operate it remotely.
You will need:
one dual-wand IR blaster cable (included with your TV)other audio/video cables as required to connect the device(s)
to the TV (see pages 14–21)
To connect the IR blaster cable:
1. Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your device. This sensor is marked on some devices.*
2. Align one of the IR blaster cable’s wands about 1 inch away from the infrared sensor on the front of the device and attach it using double-sided mounting tape. If you have a second device, attach the second wand in a similar manner.
(See illustration at right.)
Note: If you do not have a second device, coil the second wand with a rubber band and leave it behind the TV.
3. Plug the IR blaster cable’s plug into one of the TV’s TheaterNet OUT terminals.

To control the device(s):
Point the TV remote control (programmed to operate the device; see Chapter 3) or the device’s remote control at the front of the TV and press the button for the desired function. The signal passes from the remote control through the TV to the device via the IR blaster cable.
Note:
• If you use the device’s remote control to operate the device, you also will need to use the TV’s remote control to operate the TV.
• For additional control options, see “TheaterNet on-screen device control” at right.
*
If you cannot locate the device’s infrared sensor:
1. Turn OFF the device.
2. Starting at the lower left corner of the device, place the end of the device’s remote control (with the infrared emitter) so it touches the front of the device and press POWER. (Do not use the TV’s remote control for this step.)
3. If the device turns on, the point at which the remote control touched the device is the location of the sensor.
4. If the device does not turn on, move the remote control slightly to the right and press POWER again.
5. Repeat step 4 until you locate the device’s infrared sensor.
TheaterNet™ on-screen device control
For additional control options for your home theater system, set up the TheaterNet on-screen device control feature. You can use this feature to control many IR remote-controlled devices and IEEE1394 devices using the on­screen control icons.
See pages 47–51 for details on setting up and using TheaterNet.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Connecting IEEE1394 video devices
You can use the two bi-directional IEEE1394 ports on the back of your TV to connect digital video devices that meet CEA specifications for IEEE1394.
Because these ports are bi-directional, they can be used for both playback and recording.
• Because IEEE1394 is an evolving technology, it is possible that some or all of the connectivity features of a device you connect to the TV through the IEEE1394 ports may not operate. You should confirm that the devices you desire to use with the IEEE1394 ports will operate with those ports.
•This TV does not support all possible IEEE1394 signal types. For information on signals supported by the IEEE1394 ports, see “Supported signals” at right.
•IEEE1394 cable carries both audio and video information; separate audio cables are not required.
You will need:
one (or two) IEEE1394 cable(s)
Note: The transmission capability of IEEE1394 cable used with this TV must be S400 (400 Mbps maximum).
additional A/V cables if your device is analog-compatible
(see Using analog-compatible IEEE1394 devices below).

{
Supported signals
The IEEE1394 ports support the signals listed below only. Although incompatible video, audio, and digital control signals cannot be decoded by the TV, these signals may be passed through the IEEE1394 cable to other compatible devices. Incompatible devices may not appear in the TheaterNet
MPEG-2 digital video signals
Other digital video signals—such as DV video—are incompatible and must be decoded by the source device and sent to the TV as analog video (composite or S-video).
Dolby Digital and MPEG digital audio signals
Other digital audio signals (such as DPM, MP3, and DTS) are incompatible and cannot be decoded by the TV.
EIA-775 and AV/C digital control
Your TV can serve as the control center for many devices that are compatible with EIA-775 or AV/C IEEE1394 control standards (described below).
The TV cannot control IEEE1394 devices that use any other control standards.
EIA-775 digital control allows tuning devices (such as
Cable boxes) to send simple graphics; however, this standard does not allow the TV to control the Cable box through IEEE1394.
AV/C (audio/video control) provides basic control (such
as power, play, stop rewind, fast-forward, pause, and record), as applicable to the specific device.

From IEEE1394 devices (such as AVHD or D-VHS)
Using analog-compatible IEEE1394 devices
Some digital IEEE1394 devices are compatible with analog signals. For example, some D-VHS VCRs can record and play VHS or S-VHS format videos. Such devices allow you to play analog tapes that you rented or recorded, or record analog programs from antenna or Cable TV systems. To use the
IEEE1394 device’s analog features, you need to connect the device to the TV using standard A/V cables (or S-video plus audio cables) in addition to connecting the IEEE1394 cable.
Note: If you have an IEEE1394 device connected to both digital and analog inputs on the TV, the TV automatically switches between analog and digital modes, as needed, when the initial device access is initiated using the TheaterNet button. See page 47 for details on using the TheaterNet feature.

Using TheaterNet™ on-screen device control
You can use the TheaterNet feature to control some IEEE1394 devices using on-screen control icons. See page 47 for details on setting up and using the TheaterNet feature.
Note: If the TheaterNet feature does not control your IEEE1394 device, you can either use the device’s remote control or try using IR pass-through with the TV’s remote control (page 22).

Important information regarding IEEE1394
device interconnection
Never loop the last device in the chain back to the TV.
If the device chain is looped, the TV may not work properly with the other devices in the chain.
Always place devices with the slowest communication speed at the end of each chain. If a device with a slower communication speed is placed ahead of a faster device in the chain, the signal from the slower device will interfere with the signal from the faster device. To determine the communication speed of an IEEE1394 device, look for an “S” number near the device’s IEEE1394 connector. The higher the “S” number, the faster the device. If your device is not marked with an “S” number, look in the device’s user manual or call the device manufacturer’s technical support number.
If your IEEE1394 device has a two-position power
switch, always place the device at the end of the chain and turn ON the power switch when any device is used.
If the power switch is OFF, it will interfere with signals from devices behind it in the chain.
The maximum length for an IEEE1394 cable between
each device is 15 feet.
•This TV is an IEEE1394A device. The IEEE1394B protocol is faster and intended to allow for longer distances between devices and multi-room systems. IEEE1394A–to–IEEE1394B converters (available at some electronics suppliers) may allow compatibility of IEEE1394B devices with your existing IEEE1394A devices.
•The transmission capability of IEEE1394 cable used with this TV must be S400 (400 Mbps maximum).

Chapter 3: Using the remote control
Installing the remote control batteries
To install the remote control batteries:
Caution: Always dispose of batteries in a designated disposal location. Never throw batteries into a fire.
1. Slide the battery cover off the back of the remote control.
2. Install two “AA size alkaline batteries. Match the + and – symbols on the batteries to the symbols on the battery compartment.
3. Slide the battery cover on to the remote control until the lock snaps.
Caution:
Never throw batteries into a fire.
Note:
Be sure to use AA size batteries.
Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.
Batteries should always be disposed of with the
environment in mind. Always dispose of batteries in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if
the operating range becomes reduced, replace batteries with new ones.
When necessary to replace batteries in the remote
control, always replace both batteries with new ones. Never mix battery types or use new and used batteries in combination.
Always remove batteries from remote control if they
are dead or if the remote control is not to be used for an extended period of time. This will prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.
Using the remote control MODE button to control your other devices

Chapter 3: Using the remote control
Programming the remote control to operate your other devices
Device code setup
1. Refer to the multi-brand remote control device code table on pages 35 and 36 to find the code for the brand of your device.
If more than one code is listed, try each one separately until you find one that works.
2. Press MODE until the Mode indicator for the device (CBL/SAT, VCR/PVR, DVD, AUDIO 1, AUDIO 2) lights up.
3. While holding down the RECALL button, press the Channel Number buttons to enter the four-digit code for your brand of device. If a valid code is entered, the mode indicator will blink twice. If an invalid code is entered, the mode indicator will blink one long blink.
4. Point the remote control at the device and press POWER to test the code.
If the device responds to the remote control:
You have entered the correct code.
If the device does not respond to the remote control:
You may have entered the wrong code. Repeat steps 3 and 4 using another code.
Note: In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on the TV remote control operate your device. If some keys are not operational, repeat the device code setup using another code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after trying all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate your device, use the device’s original remote control.
5. To control the TV, repeatedly press MODE to select “TV.
Note:
• Although the TV remote control includes codes for many devices, it may not include codes for some or all of the features on certain devices you wish to control. If you are unable to program the TV remote control to operate your device or some of the features on that device, use the device’s remote control or the controls on the device.
• Each time you change the batteries you will need to reprogram the remote control.
• Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has this kind of switch and does not respond to the codes for your VCR brand, set the switch to the other position (“VCR1” or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.
Searching and sampling the code of a device (8500)
If you do not know the device code for a particular device, you can cycle the remote control through the available codes for that device mode and sample the functions to find the code that operates the target device. The keys available to be sampled, provided they are applicable to that mode, are POWER, 1, VOL y, CH y, and PLAY. Invalid keys will be ignored while in program mode.
To cycle through each available device code and sample its functions:
1. Press MODE to select the mode you want to set up.
2. While holding down RECALL, press 8 – 5 – 0 – 0. The remote control will enter program mode.
3. Point the remote control at the target device and press POWER (or other function buttons that are available to be sampled).
4. If the device responds to the remote control:
Press RECALL to store the device code. The mode indicator will blink twice and the remote control will exit the program mode.
If the device does not respond to the remote control:
Press y, and then press POWER. Repeat this step until the device responds to the remote control, and then press RECALL.
Note: When a search cycle is completed, the mode indicator will blink three times. The remote control will begin to cycle through the available codes again. If no key is pressed within 10 seconds while programming, the remote control will exit the program mode and return to the previous code.

Chapter 6: Setting up your TV
Programming channels into the TVs channel memory
When you press CHANNEL y or z on the remote control or TV side panel, your TV will stop only on the channels stored in the TVs channel memory.
Follow the steps below to program channels into the TV’s channel memory.
Programming channels automatically
Your TV can automatically detect all active channels in your area and store them in its memory. After the channels are programmed automatically, you can manually add or erase individual channels.
Note:
•You must configure the antenna input sources before programming channels (see page 43).
• If the input signal type is set to CABLE for an antenna input, the automatic channel programming process erases channels that were previously programmed into the TV’s memory.
• If the input signal type is set to ANTENNA, the automatic channel programming process does NOT erase channels that were previously programmed into the TV’s memory, but adds newly found channels to the existing set of programmed channels. To remove a channel from the memory, you must manually delete it (see next page).
•To tune the TV to a channel not programmed in the channel memory, you must use the Channel Number buttons on the remote control.
• Programming channels for an antenna input configured for CABLE will take substantially longer than for an antenna input configured for ANTENNA. This is normal; however, once channel programming is completed, you should not have to repeat the programming process again unless your Cable TV service lineup changes significantly.
• If you have a CableCARD™ inserted (page 13), channel programming for ANT 1 is disabled because the CableCARD™ automatically loads the Cable channel list into the TV’s channel memory.
To program channels automatically:
1. Make sure you have configured the antenna input sources. See page 43 for details.
2. Press MENU and open the Setup menu.
3. Highlight Installation and press ENTER. (A new set of Installation menu icons will appear on-screen).
4. Open the Terrestrial menu, highlight Channel Program, and press ENTER.
5. Highlight ANT 1 or ANT 2, depending on which antenna input you want to program channels for, and then

Setting up and using TheaterNet on-screen device control
The TheaterNet feature allows you to control many brands of IEEE1394 and/or infrared remote-controlled A/V devices through your TV using on-screen control icons and the TV’s remote control.
Note:
• Although the TheaterNet on-screen device control feature includes codes for many devices, it may not include codes for some or all of the features on certain devices you wish to control. If you are unable to program the TheaterNet feature to operate your device or some of the features on that device, use the device’s remote control or the controls on the device.
• For IR pass-through device control information, see “Controlling infrared remote-controlled devices through the TV (IR pass­through)” on page 22.
Setting up TheaterNet
All device types except IEEE1394 require the following setup process before you can control them using the TheaterNet on­screen icons.
All compatible IEEE1394 devices are automatically recognized by the TheaterNet feature and do not require setup.
Note: See page 23 for details about the IEEE1394 ports. If your IEEE1394 device is not recognized through the IEEE1394 port or through the TheaterNet feature, it may be possible to set it up for IR pass-through control as an infrared device (see page 22).
To set up TheaterNet device control:
1. Make sure you have properly connected your infrared remote-controlled device(s). See page 22 for details.
2. Press MENU and open the Setup menu.
3. Highlight Installation and press ENTER. (A new set of Installation menu icons will appear on-screen, as shown in step 4).

Using the Channel Browser (continued)
Adding and clearing channels in the channel history
Adding channels to the channel history
The channel browser automatically creates a history of the last 32 channels that were tuned in the current input (ANT 1, ANT 2, and Cable Box inputs only). A separate history will be stored for each of these inputs.
If you change the input you are viewing:
a) you will begin a channel history for that input if one did
not exist; or
b) you will return to the existing channel history for that input
if one had already been started.
The channel browser will store the following channels:
All channels that are tuned using the numeric buttons on the remote control.
All channels that are tuned for at least 7 seconds using the CH yz buttons or the FAV CH yz buttons on the remote control.
Note:
•The channel browser banner will not appear when the POP double
window is open; however, channels tuned while the POP double window is open will be added to the channel browser history for the current input.
•The channel browser banner will not appear in the FAV SCAN
(favorite scan) multi-window. Channels that appear in the FAV SCAN multi-window will not be added to the channel browser history; however, channels that are tuned from the FAV SCAN multi-window for at least 7 seconds will be added to the channel history.
Clearing channels from the channel history
Turning off the TV will clear all three channel histories (ANT 1, ANT 2, and Cable Box).
Removing the CableCARD
will clear the channel history
for the ANT 1 input.
Reconfiguring the ANT 1, ANT 2, or Cable Box input will clear the channel history for the newly configured input(s).
Note:
See page 43 for details on configuring the antenna inputs.
Setting a channel as the “Home” channel for an input
To set a channel as Home using the remote control:
1. Tune the TV to the channel you would like to set as the Home channel for the current antenna input.
2. Press and hold the HOME (
) button on the remote control for 3 seconds. When the Home channel is saved, the channel browser banner will appear at the bottom of the screen with the home icon flashing green.
Note: You can set a different Home channel for each input (ANT 1, ANT 2, and Cable Box inputs only).
To set a channel as Home using the menus:
1. Press MENU and open the Preferences menu.
2. Highlight Home CH Setup and press ENTER. The Home CH Setup window will display.

Tuning channels (continued)
Chapter 8: Using the TV’s features
Tuning your favorite channels
To tune to the channels you programmed as Favorite Channels, see page 46.
Tuning to the next programmed channel
To tune to the next programmed channel:
Press CHANNEL yz on the remote control or TV side panel.
Note:
•This feature will not work unless you program channels into the TV’s channel memory (see page 44).
• If you are recording a digital channel, you will only be able to change analog channels while the recording is in progress. If you are recording an analog channel, you will only be able to change digital channels while the recording is in progress. This is because the TV tuner that is being recorded (digital or analog) will be locked on the channel that is currently recording.
Tuning to a specific channel (programmed or unprogrammed)
Tuning analog channels:
Press the Channel Number buttons (0–9) on the remote control. For example, to select channel 125, press 1, 2, 5.
Tuning digital channels:
Press the Channel Number buttons (0–9) on the remote control, followed by the – (dash) button and then the sub­channel number. For example, to select digital channel 125-1, press 1, 2, 5, –, 1.
Note: If a digital channel is not programmed—either through the automatic channel scan (page 44) or the channel add/ delete function (page 45)—you will have to tune the RF channel using the Channel Number and Dash buttons on the remote control.
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.
1. Select the first channel you want to view.
2. Select a second channel using the Channel Number buttons (and the dash (–) button if selecting a digital channel).
3. Press CH RTN on the remote control. The previous channel will display. Each time you press CH RTN, the TV will switch back and forth between the last two channels that were selected.
Note:
• If you press CH RTN from a non-antenna input, the TV will return to the last-viewed ANT input and channel.
• If you are currently recording a program, this feature will not be available.
Switching between two channels using SurfLock
The SurfLock feature temporarily “memorizes” one channel in the CH RTN button, so you can return to that channel quickly from any other channel by pressing CH RTN. To memorize a channel in the CH RTN button:
1. Select the channel you want to program into the CH RTN button.
2. Press and hold CH RTN for about 2 seconds until the message Channel Memorized appears on the screen. The channel has been programmed into the CH RTN button.
3. You can then change channels repeatedly, and when you press CH RTN, the memorized channel will be selected.
Press CH RTN. The memorized channel will be selected. The TV will return to the memorized channel one time only. Once you press CH RTN and then change channels again, the CH RTN button memory will be cleared and the button will function as Channel Return, by switching back and forth between the last two channels that were selected.
