The video menu will automatically disappear from the screen if
you do not press + or - within a few seconds.
Via remote control, your TV will “remember” which function
you displayed last-even after the menu has disappeared from
the screen. So, if you want to adjust the same function again,
simply press the + or - button on the remote control. The last
function you adjusted will reappear on the TV screen.
PAtmÒN: 'ake extreme cieultion if you plan to display
^ideo games or computer screens on your TV. If a fixed •
t‘Xnon-moving) pattern is left on the screen for sevcnl
?hours, the image can be permanently imprinted onto the
’’ screen. For this reason, we do not recommend connecting
^Idco games, computers, or similar devices to your TV,
^jKeeping the TV’s
BFUGHTNESS
and
CONTRAST
r^jfiinctions at low settings will help delay the imprinting but
^ is often too easy for someone in your family to leave the
V pattern displayed too long and imprint the screen. These
‘stvnes of imprints are not covered by your warranty because
y are the result of misuse. • ■

Adjusting for a Color Picture that Pleases You
1. Decrease color to minimum. This will leave a black-and-white
image on the screen.
2. Adjust contrast until the picture pleases you.
3. Adjust brightness until the black parts of the picture appear
black. You may need to wait until the picture shows something
you’re sure is black to make this adjustment. Be careful not to
lose the details in darkly shaded areas.
4. Increase color until you reach a pleasing level of intensity.
5. Adjust tint until flesh tones or other color objects appear natural.
6. Adjust sharpness for a pleasing level of picture sharpness. (For
weak signals, the picture may be more pleasing with sharpness
decreased.)
Custom Picture Memory for Input Channels
The channel numbers you select to see signals from components
(like a VCR) that are connected to the /YPC/T jacks on the back of
the TV are called input channels. Selecting channel 90 lets you see
the signal coming from whatever component is attached to the
S-VIDEO connector, channel 91 lets you see the signal from the
INPUT 1
jacks, and channel 92 lets you see the signal from the
INPUT 2
jacks. Your TV is equipped with a custom picture
memory for these input channels. When the TV is tuned to one of
these channels (90, 91,92), you can change the picture settings for
that component’s signal as desired without changing the settings of
any other channel. This is very useful because you’ll be able to
adjust for the best picture from each of your components and the
TV will remember those settings automatically the next time you
tune that input channel.
