How to reset the TV to factory settings

•You have selected a text option and no text is available (see page 38). To turn off this feature, set the CC Display option to Oil. If you were trying to select closed captioning, select CC1 instead of Text1-4.

•Some wide screen programs are filmed in aspect ratios that are greater than 16:9 (this is especially common with theatrical releases). Your TV will show these

details, check the documentation that came with your DVD (or contact your programs with black bands at the top and bottom of the screen. For more program provider).

•Programs in 4:3 aspect ratio will have bands on left and right sides of the screen.

•Programs broadcast in HD formats (720p and 1080i) with 4:3 content will commonly have black bands on the left and right sides of the screen which are added by the broadcaster (see image on left).

•Auto Wide will not expand the picture when the black bands on the sides of the screen are added by the broadcaster. You can manually change the Wide Mode to Wide Zoom, H Stretch or Zoom to fill the screen, which will remain in affect until you change the channel or input or manually change the

Wide Mode again.

•This is due to the digital compression of the source content used by certain digital broadcasts and DVDs which may cause your TV's screen to display less detail than usual, or cause artifacts (small blocks or dots, pixelations) to appear on your screen. These signal compressions are more visible and are dependent on the clarity and resolution of the TV.
