HOW TO SETUP AND FINE-TUNE
VIF AND URF CHANNELS
TOUCH-COMMAND CHANNEL SELECTION
Zenith’s 14-position Touch-Command Channel
Selection System makes channel selection easy. After you
complete the simple setup and fine-tuning steps, you can
select up to 14 VHF and UHF channels with just the touch
of a button. Channel change is instant and direct. To
change channels, lightly press the proper button. There is
no need to fine-tune each time you change channels—
not even on UHF channels!
The control panel to the left shows you where to find the
controls you need. Open the panel door at the right
side of receiver for access to the controls. Remove Dial
Scale Cover Panel for access to Dial Scales and Fine
Tuning Controls. Follow these steps:
1. Hook up your VHF and UHF antennas.
(See antenna section on pages 11 and 12.)
2. Plug in your set. (See page 3.)
3. Push the ON-OFF switch to turn the set ON and allow
it to warm up for two or three minutes. (To turn the set
OFF, just push the ON-OFF switch again.) The COLOR
SENTRY control can be set either ON or OFF while you
are fine-tuning the color picture.
4, AFC (AUTOMATIC FINE-TUNING CONTROL)
IMPORTANT: Set the AFC switch to the OFF position
and leave it in the OFF position while fine-tuning
each channel. 3
5. Twelve of the fourteen positions in the channel selector
have been preset for you at the factory with VHF
channels in a sequence 2 through 13. However, signal
conditions vary from station to station. To compensate
for this, each VHF channel available in your area should
be fine-tuned to give you the sharpest possible picture.
These VHF channels (2-13) can be left as set up at the
factory or rearranged in any order whicli you find
convenient. It is not possible to preset UHF channels
(14 through 83) at the factory because different areas of
the country have different UHF channels available. The
U1 and U2 positions can be used for VHF and/or UHF
channels. Also, UHF channels (14-83) may be set up on
any unused VHF position.
6. To set up a Channel, you first remove the tab you wish
to replace. You do this by pushing back on the exposed
part and pulling to the RIGHT. Then insert the VHF or -
UHF channel tab which you have selected.
NOTE: UHF channel number tabs are supplied on a
separate sheet and must be inserted before you can
tune a UHF channel.
