Once you have set up the TV, you can choose the language of the  
menu. Then, you should preset the channels (up to 100 channels)  
by choosing either the automatic or manual method. The  
GB  
automatic method is easier if you want to preset all receivable  
channels at once. Use the manual method if you only have a few  
channels and want to preset channels one by one.
