Key Features Overview

Your TV is equipped with features that will add to your TV viewing experience. The following information summarizes a few of these features. Chapter 3 provides more information about the rest of the TV’s features and how to use them.

On-Screen Program Guide

The GUIDE Plus+™ system is a “no-fee,” on-screen interactive list of programs and information that is built into your TV. You can scroll through the guide to see what’s on and tune directly to that program from the guide. You can also browse programs by category with the Sort feature or sort them alphabetically. When you access the News feature, MSNBC will appear in your video window if available and display current news stories by headline. One-Touch VCR Recording is another benefit of the GUIDE Plus+ system. You don’t have to remember to program your VCR or use the menus in your VCR to set up a recording.

Complete the on-screen assisted setup. You’ll find detailed instructions in Chapter 1.

V-Chip: Parental Controls

You can block programs and movies by content, age-based ratings, and/or movie ratings. Set up the Parental Controls menu in the TV’s main menu (Chapter 3 has details). The broadcasters must use the rating system when they send the program to your TV in order for your TV to block the program. The TV must be locked for the parental controls settings to take effect.

DTVLink® (Digital Television Link)

Better known to some as IEEE 1394 or FireWire*, these jacks enable connection of high- speed digital technology to devices with a DTVLink logo on them. With the two DTVLink connectors, you can network your digital devices by linking them together.

Web Browser

A web browsing software package is built into your television that allows access to the Internet including the World Wide Web. The browser interprets HTML (HyperText Markup Language), the programming language of the Internet, into the words and graphics (jpeg and gif files) that you see when viewing a web page. This browser has some limitations and might not be equipped to interpret all files, such as streaming video and audio. You’ll need a high-speed connection, such as a DSL (digital subscriber line) unit or cable modem to use the web browser.

DTVLINK® Certification Logo is a U.S. registered mark of CEA.
