How do you tune channels on a Hitachi TV?
If you have misplaced your Hitachi TV instruction manual, first, you need to reset it before retunning. A soft reset requires you to remove the plug of your smart TV out of its plug point in the wall and to wait around a minute or two before plugging it back in.

Step 1. Click the ‘Menu’ button on your remote control
Step 2. Click on the ‘Settings’ option
Step 3. Press ‘System’ and then ‘Advanced System Settings’
Step 4. Find ‘Factory Reset’ and press this option
Step 5. Now click on ‘Factory Reset Everything’
Step 6. Confirm this action
NOTE: A soft reset will not erase any of your saved data already on your Hisense, as opposed to completing the factory reset.
Next, do these steps to retune your TV:
Step 1. Turn your Hitachi on
Step 2. Press down on the ‘TV’ button until a red light begins to flash
Step 3. Hold down the ‘Menu’ button, the program options will appear on your screen
Step 4. Click down on the ‘Menu’ button again
Step 5. You can now sift through the different available channels
Step 6. Once you have a channel you want to save, use the ‘arrow down’ button to choose it
Step 7. Click on the ‘arrow down’ button again to ensure the channel has been stored in the software
You can now keep repeating these steps for each channel you want to save on your TV.
