What To Expect
Watching TV
If you have both analog and digital cable channels these will be put into the same channel list. To
tell the difference between these channels, press the INFO button and look in the channel banner
for these things: a subchannel, the format, an A or D (analog or digital) icon and resolution the
TV is receiving.
• Analog channels only display one channel number. Digital channels received through the
digital cable card also have one channel number. Digital channels received through cable or
an off-air antenna might have a primary channel and a subchannel. In the example below, 6 is
the primary channel; 1 is the subchannel.
• Analog channels are sent in a 4 x 3 format. Digital channels can be sent in a format of 4 x 3,
but usually 16 x 9.
• Analog channels are sent in a resolution up to 480i. Digital channels are sent in a resolution
of 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, or 1080p.

Changing Channels
Depending upon the type of signals you have connected to your HDTV, you might notice that
the channels change slower than you’re used to. This is perfectly normal. Digital cable channels
sometimes take longer to tune.
Some channels might be found during the channel search that aren’t available. Some channels are
enabled by the cable company that don’t carry programming, such as video-on-demand. When
channels are unavailable, your TV’s screen displays Weak or No Signal. You probably want to
remove these so they no longer appear in your channel list. Remove these in the Channel Setup
menu. Go to page 45 for more information.
Next Steps
Now that you’ve nished the Assisted Setup, you’re ready to watch TV. This might be a good time
to program your remote control. The remote control that came with this TV can be programmed
to operate other devices. Go to the next chapter to nd out how to program your remote.
