BASIC TV OPERATION

SELECTING CHANNELS

To select a channel, press CHANNEL /\ or \/.  The tuner automatically
advances to the next channel stored in the tuner's memory.

Note:  If you press CHANNEL /\ when the tuner is at the highest programmed
       channel or CHANNEL \/ when the tuner is at lowest programmed
       channel, the Model 36 enters the audio/video mode and AUX appears
       (see "Viewing an External Device" below).  If you press CHANNEL /\
       or \/ again, the Model 36 tunes to the lowest or highest programmed
       channel.

       You can also select channels directly using the number keys on the
       remote control.  You can choose any channel in the tuner's range,
       even if you have not programmed the channel, there is no broadcast
       present, or the channel is scrambled (the tuner does not unscramble
       the channel).

Notes:  Precede a single-digit number with a 0 - for example, 01, 02, and
        so on.

        If you selected the CATV input signal (see "Selecting the Input
        Signal" in Faxback Doc. # 50429), press +100 on the remote control
        to enter the first digit of a 3-digit channel number.  Then use
        the number keys to enter the second and third digits.
