Contrast provides a slider to adjust the white-to-black level. Low contrast shows a variety of shades in darker images, while high contrast shows darker images more uniformly black and makes colors appear more vibrant.

Brightness provides a slider to adjust the overall brightness of the picture.

Sharpness provides a slider to adjust the detail and clarity.

Tint provides a slider to adjust the proportion of red to green.

Color provides a slider to adjust the color intensity.

Color Temp (Color Temperature) allows you to adjust how white images are dis- played. Your choices are:

•Low 6500K or Low: White images will have a warm cast to them. This adjustment is an average and can vary due to ambient room lighting, video scene brightness and the TV’s age. The Low 6500K represents the 6500K industry standard for NTSC pictures.

•Medium: White images will be balanced between the Low (warm) and High (cool) settings.

•High: White images will have a cool cast to them. This setting may provide the most realistic picture under bright lighting.

Video NR (Video Noise Reduction) adjusts the picture noise. When Video NR is ON, you will notice a reduction of video noise and a coresponding reduction in the sparpness of detail. Video NR can improve the appearance of a low quality picture due to a poor signal or older VHS tapes. When Video NR is OFF, there is no change the video noise levels.
