Introducing the FD Trinitron Wega

Overview

This chapter describes the contents of the package in which the TV is

shipped and provides an overview of the features of your Wega TV.

Presenting the FD Trinitron Wega

The FD Trinitron Wega (pronounced VAY-GAH) is characterized by

outstanding contrast, uncompromising accuracy, and corner-to-

corner detail.

You will recognize the superiority of Wega technology almost

immediately. The first thing you will probably notice is minimal glare

from the flat picture tube. This flat-screen technology improves

picture detail without distortion, unlike conventional curved screens.

The FD Trinitron delivers outstanding image detail not only at the

screen center, but also at the corners — so you can enjoy a bright,

clear picture from any location in a room.

Package Contents Along with your new Trinitron TV, the packing box contains a remote

control and two AA batteries. These items are all you need to set up

and use the TV.

Features Some of the features that you will enjoy with your new TV include:

❑Built-in Digital Television Receiver: You can watch digital

television programs and enjoy the improved audio/video quality

offered by these programs. With high-definition signal reception,

you can watch TV signals broadcast in HDTV for the clearest

possible broadcast picture.

❑Screen Mode: Enables you to resize the picture.

❑DRC® (Digital Reality Creation) Mult ifunction: Unlike

conventional line doublers, the DRC Multifunction feature

replaces the signal’s NTSC waveform with the near-HD

equivalent, while doubling the number of vertical and horizontal

lines. This results in four times the density for quality sources,

such as DVD, satellite, and digital camcorders. The Picture

Settings allow you to select interlaced, progressive, or

CineMotion™ output.

❑Favorites Menu: Allows you to select from 16 of your favorite

channels.
