NOTE
• Once “MONO” mode is selected, the sound remains mono
even if the System receives a stereo broadcast. You must
switch the mode back to “STEREO” if you want to hear
stereo sound again.
• Selecting MTS while in the input mode does not change
the type of sound. In this case, sound is determined by
the video source.
Each time you press
MTS, MTS toggles as
shown below.

Setting MTS/SAP stereo mode
The System has a feature that allows reception of
sound other than the main audio for the program. This
feature is called Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS).
The System with MTS can receive mono sound, stereo
sound and Secondary Audio Programs (SAP). The SAP
feature allows a TV station to broadcast other
information, which could be audio in another language
or something completely different like weather
information.
You can enjoy Hi-Fi stereo sound or SAP
broadcasts where available.
• Stereo broadcasts
View programs like live sporting events, shows and
concerts in dynamic stereo sound.
• SAP broadcasts

mono or stereo).
SAP sound: Listen to second language, supplementary
commentary and other information. (SAP is mono sound.)
If stereo sound is difficult to hear.
• Obtain a clearer sound by manually switching to fixed
mono-sound mode.
