Introducing the TV

sCableCARD™ slot: Provides cable subscribers with access to digitally encrypted cable channels — without the need for a set-top box — that will enable you to receive not only standard definition but also high definition television. The CableCARD device, which is provided by your cable TV company, is inserted into the TV’s rear panel CableCARD slot. After the service is activated with your cable TV company, the card replaces the need for a separate set-top box. (Check with your cable TV company about CableCARD service details, limitations, pricing, and availability. For more information about CableCARD device in this manual, see page 29.)

sComponent Video Input: Offers the best video quality for DVD (480p and 480i), and digital set-top box (1080i, 720p, 480p and 480i) connections.

sFavorite Channels: With the WEGA GATE function, allows you to navigate a list of up to 16 favorite channels without leaving the current channel.

sSteady Sound®: Equalizes volume levels so there is consistent output between programs and commercials.

sHDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface): Provides an uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface between this TV and any HDMI-equipped audio/video component, such as a set-top box, DVD player, and A/V receiver. HDMI supports enhanced, or high- definition video, plus two-channel digital audio.

sLight Sensor: Allows the picture brightness level to be optimized to ambient light. The effect from the Light Sensor depends on the setting of Picture Mode and Power Saving. The factory setting is Off.
