CTI
The CTI (Colour Transient Improvement) circuit is an electronic circuit which provides a perfect tran- sition between neighbouring areas of different colours on the screen and prevents "smudging" of the colours. This function is effective for both TV signals and signals from AV devices.
Forced mono
It may happen that your TV set switches to stereo mode although the programme you are watching is not broadcast with stereo sound. This is normal- ly due to the local reception conditions. If you set the selected programme position to "forced mono" all programmes received at this programme posi- tion are reproduced with mono sound.
Noise reduction
This function allows you to improve the picture quality of "snowy" pictures which result from poor reception conditions. Various levels of noise reduction can be selected and the settings can be made separately for each programme position.
Panorama 2)
The panorama function can be used to expand "normal" TV programmes broadcast in the 4:3 format to fill the full width of a 16:9 screen. This is done by expanding the picture width accordingly.
Picture position, vertical
With widescreen films, subtitles are sometimes transmitted in the black area at the bottom of the screen. You can move the picture upwards on the screen to ensure that these subtitles remain visible.
2) Possible only on sets equipped with this function.
