Setting the Time and Date (Auto Time Setup)

Your HDTV Tuner uses the signal from a digital channel to set the time automatically. So, in order to set the time on your HDTV Tuner,
you need to make sure you're tuned to a digital channel (on the AIR input) that you have no trouble receiving.

Setting the Screen Ratio

Your HDTV Tuner works with both widescreen (16:9) and regular 4:3 monitors or TVs. Choose the aspect ratio that matches your monitor
or TV.
