The On Screen Menus

Your TV has two kinds of menus, the Main menu and the various

Tools menus. The Main menu gives you access to most or all of

the menu options available on your TV. The Tools menus display

a selected number of frequently used menu options that change

depending on the screen you are viewing. A Tools menu symbol

(T) in the lower right side of the screen indicates that a Tools menu

is available.
The Main menu has seven primary categories:

y

Setup

To view the Main menu, press the

MENU

button on your remote. To

view a Tools menu, press the

TOOLS

button on your remote.

The menu options that appear in the Main menu depend

on the Source you have selected. For example, if you have

selected the HDMI source, the Channel category will not

appear. To see the Channel category, you must first select TV

in the Source List.

The Menu options are presented below, arranged by Main menu
categories. A Tools button symbol

(

t)

next to an option

name indicates the option is also available in one of the Tools

menus.

Picture Options

When the TV is connected to a PC, you can only make

changes to the Color Tone, Size and HDMI Black Level.

Color Tone (Cool / Standard / Warm1 / Warm2): Cool makes

the picture bluer (cooler). Warm 1 and Warm 2 make the picture

redder (warmer).

Warm1 and Warm2 are deactivated when the picture

mode is set to Dynamic.

Size: Set the size and aspect ratio of the picture on the screen.
Your cable box or satellite receiver may have its own set of

screen sizes as well. However, we highly recommend you use

the TVs 16:9 mode most of the time.
16:9: Sets the picture to the 16:9 wide screen format.
Zoom1: Provides moderate magnification of the picture. Sides,

top, and bottom are cut off.
Zoom2: Provides larger magnification of the picture. Sides, top,

and bottom are cut off.
Wide Fit: Enlarges the aspect ratio of the picture so the picture

fits the entire screen.
4:3: Sets the picture to the old, 4:3 format and puts black or gray

borders on the right and left of the picture.

Do not watch your TV in the 4:3 format for a long time.

Traces of borders displayed on the left, right and center of

the screen may cause image retention (screen burn) which

is not covered by the warranty.

Screen Fit: Displays the full image without any cut-off when

your TV is inputting HDMI (720p / 1080i / 1080p) or Component

(1080i / 1080p) HD signals.

HD (High Definition) has a 16:9 aspect ratio and 1080i/1080p

(1920x1080) or 720p (1280x720) resolution.

You can adjust and store settings for each external device you

have connected to an input on the TV. Picture Sizes available

by Input Source are listed below:
