Additional Features
There are additional features available unrelated to parental controls. These features can be found in other menus.
Fetch Feature
This is a unique “Fetch” remote control finder function on the HDTV. Pressing the MENU and VOLUME UP button on the side panel of the TV set at the same time will cause the remote control to bark from its current location. (only available for models L42FHD38, L46FHD38, L52FHD38, and L40FHD380)
Screen Formats
Screen format is the way the picture is displayed on your TV. Press the FORMAT button on your remote to see if a different format is available for the video you are viewing. The format changes as you press the FORMAT button and the format type is displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Analog video is sent in a 4/3 format, which your TV displays in a 16/9 format. Most digital video is sent in a 16/9 format which does fill your screen, but it sometimes is sent in 4/3 which does not fill your screen. It depends on how the station or device connected to your TV is formatting the video. If there are bars on the screen, press the FORMAT button to try a different format that may eliminate the bars. Some bars can't be removed because of the way the format is sent by the broadcaster.
The different formats available and what they look like follow. Each format is available for analog video, but it might not be available for digital video.
