Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts

The multi-channel TV sound (MTS) feature allows you to listen to high-fidelity stereo sound while watching TV. MTS can also transmit a second audio program (SAP) containing a second language, music, or other audio information (when provided by individual stations).

When the TV receives a stereo or SAP broadcast, the word STEREO or SAP appears on-screen every time the TV is turned on, the channel is changed, or the RECALL button is pressed.

The MTS feature is not available when the TV is in VIDEO mode.

You can leave your TV in STEREO mode because it will automatically output the type of sound being broadcast (stereo or monaural). The word ÒSTEREOÓ or ÒSAPÓ displays in yellow in the menu when the TV receives the signal.

If the stereo sound is noisy, select MONO to reduce the noise. To listen to SAP (if available):

1.Press MENU, and then press x or • until the AUDIO menu appears.

2.Press y or z to highlight MTS.

3.Press x or • to highlight SAP. You will hear the stationÕs second audio program (if available) from the speakers, while viewing the original programÕs picture (see note at right).

Note :

A second audio program (SAP) can be heard only on those TV stations that offer it.

For example, a station might broadcast music as a second audio program. If you have SAP on, you will see the current program on the screen but hear music instead of the program’s normal audio.

If you have SAP on and the station you are watching is not broadcasting a second audio program, the station’s normal audio will be output.

However, occasionally there is no sound at all in this instance.

If this happens, set the MTS feature to STEREO mode.
