Chapter 4: Using the TV’s Menu System

How to Use Your TV’s Menu System

The buttons on the remote or the front of your TV access the menu system and can change the settings.

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.

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

Use your arrow buttons on your remote control to highlight your choice, and press OK.

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

Exiting a menu

There are three ways to exit a menu:

Highlight Exit and press OK.

Press 0 on the remote.

Press CLEAR. The on-screen displays are cleared from the screen and you return to TV viewing.

Audio Menu

Mute Press OK to reduce the TV’s volume to its minimum level. Press OK again to restore the volume.

Tone Controls Displays the slider controls for adjusting the TV’s treble, bass and balance.

Audio Processor Displays a choice list of available audio modes, which control the way the sound comes through your speakers. You can also access the AUDIO PROCESSOR menu by pressing the SOUND button on the remote.

Mono Plays the sound in mono only. Use this setting when receiving broadcasts with weak stereo signals.

Stereo Splits the incoming stereo audio signal into left and right channels. Most TV programs and recorded materials have stereo audio. The word STEREO appears on the TV when you tune to a program that is broadcast in stereo.

Expanded Stereo Electronically “widens” sound from stereo broadcasts, stereo VCRs, digital satellite systems, DVD players, and laserdisc players for a fuller, more spacious sound.

Sound Logic Stereo Reduces the annoying blasts in volume during commercial breaks, and also amplifies softer sounds in program material. Eliminates the need to constantly adjust volume control.

Second Audio Program (SAP) Plays the program’s audio in a second language, if one is available. The word SAP appears on the TV when you tune to a program that is broadcast with SAP information. SAP audio is broadcast in mono. SAP is also used to broadcast a program’s audio with descriptions of the video for the visually impaired.
