Feel free to explore the menu system. If you’re ever unsure where you are in the menu system, or you’re just plain tired of exploring, press CLEAR to remove the menus from the screen and start over again.

Menus

The first menu is called the Main menu. Press MENU on the remote or on the front panel to bring up the Main menu. Note that holding MENU for 2 seconds displays the GUIDE Plus+ system.

Menus take you to another menu or a control panel. There are two ways to select a choice in a menu:

Press a number button on the remote. For example, in the Main menu press 3 to go straight to the Screen menu.
