Today most television programs are broadcast in stereo. However, there are times you may wish to set the Tuner Audio to Mono, Stereo, SAP, or TV+SAP.

1Display Tuner Audio Status

Press the AUDIO button while the TV View is set to the Tuner (i.e., when you are watching TV).

•The current Tuner Audio status will appear in the upper right corner of the screen.

2Select Tuner Audio

Push the up/down to select from the following options, then press Enter to select:

•Mono - Monaural (single-channel) audio. Combines the left and right audio signals into one channel. Use when connecting the VCR to a Mono output device, such as a monitor.

•Stereo - Two-channel MTS stereo sound split into left and right channels. When a show is not broadcast in stereo, the sound reverts to Mono.

•SAP - Second Audio Program. Optional audio signal, often used to transmit a second language, news, or weather broadcasts.

•TV+SAP - Delivers Mono from the left channel and Second Audio Program (SAP) from the right channel. This is useful if you want to listen to a second language with headphones while the primary language is played through your TV speakers.

NOTE:	Only audio selections which are available for the
	selected TV program will be displayed.
