Descriptions of video settings

The contrast setting controls the relation between the light and black areas of the screen. If the
light areas are too bright and are losing details, press the CVOL button; if the picture is gray
and lacks contrast, press the VOLB button.

The brightness settings controls the overall amount of light in the picture. If the picture is too
bright, press the CVOL button; if the picture is too dark, press the VOLB button.

Sharpness controls how the TV displays edges of objects on-screen. If the TV shows multiple
vertical lines at the edges of an object, press the CVOL button; if the vertical edges of
on-screen objects are fuzzy, press the VOLB button.

The color setting controls the intensity of color. If the color is over-saturated, press the CVOL
button; if the color is washed out, press the VOLB button.

The tint setting controls the relationship of red and green in a picture. Tint is especially notice-
able in flesh tones. If flesh tones seem too red or purple, press the CVOL button; if flesh tones
are too green, press the VOLB button.
