5. The "settings EDIT CHANNELS" page appears with a list of channels available in the program guide.

* Check and uncheck channels to add/remove them from the guide.

* Click "Select All" to select all channels for placement in the guide.

* Click "Clear All" to clear all channel information from the guide.

* Click "Auto Select" to test each channel for signal strength, and uncheck channels with weak signals from this list.
