on the left of the remote. To navigate through channels, use the control
labeled CH on the right as shown in Figure 1.

NOTE: If there are channels that have no sound or the sound is in Spanish,
select the ‘B’ button on your remote. Not all TV’s will auto program to the
remote control supplied with your set-top box.
Please contact us at 270-665-5186 for help with programming for your TV. If we
are unable to program to your TV, you will need to use the remote that came
