al channels (up to 10) to each of the the
SURF lists.
To remove a channel from one of the
SURF lists;
4
Press the COLORED Quadra
Surf button until the desired chan-
nel appears. The screen will display
the channel number with a colored
“Smiley” face to indicate the
Colored button it relates to.

While the “Smiley” face channel
indicator is displayed, press the
FROWNIE face button. The
screen will read, “Remove item? -
Press .”

channels per button (40 total). You can
even program the A/V Input channels for
each button making them a “source” but-
ton.
Assuming channels have now been added
to the four Quadra Surf lists (the four col-
ored buttons, see the previous page), let’s
review how the feature works.
1
Press one of the pre-programmed
COLORED buttons on the remote
(Red, Green, Yellow or Blue). The
screen will display a smiley face with
the first programmed channel for that
surf list.
2
While the colored “smiley” face still
appears on the screen, press the
same COLORED button on the
remote to tune the second channel pro-
grammed for that specific surf list.
3
Repeatedly pressing the same COL-
ORED button while the “smiley”
face appears will tune all the pro-
grammed channels. Pressing the COL-
ORED button again will return you to
the first channel in the list.
If the “smiley” face disappears from the
screen and the same COLORED button is
pressed, the surf channels will be displayed
starting with the FIRST programmed chan-
nel again.
4
Repeat steps 1-3 for the other three
COLORED buttons (Surf lists) if
desired.
5
Any time the “smiley” face appears
with the channel number, pressing
the “frownie” face button will allow
you to remove it from the list (see the
previous page for more details).

T
he AutoLock™ feature is an integrated
circuit that receives and processes data
sent by broadcasters, or other program
providers, that contain program content advi-
sories. When programmed by the viewer, a
TV with AutoLock™ can respond to the con-
tent advisories and block program content
that may be found objectionable (such as
offensive language, violence, sexual situa-
tions, etc.). This is a great feature to censor
the type of viewing children may watch.
AutoLock™ offers various BLOCKING
controls from which to choose:
Access Code -
An Access Code must be
set to prevent children from unblocking ques-
tionable or censored programming set by
their parents.
Channel Block -
After an access code has
been programmed, you can block individual
channels including the A/V inputs.
Clear All -
Allows you clear all channels
being blocked from your viewing set with the
Channel Block Control.
Block All -
Allows you to block ALL chan-
nels and A/V inputs at one time.
Movie Ratings -
Certain blocking options
exist which will block programming based
on ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures
Association of America.
TV Ratings -
Just like the Movie Ratings,
programs can be blocked from viewing using
standard TV ratings set by TV broadcasters.
