DISPLAY. Please see page 21.

remains on before turning off automatically. This is especially
convenient if you like to fall asleep with the television on.
Repeatedly press the SLEEP button to set the amount of time you
want the TV to remain on.
A display will appear in the corner of the screen.You can set the
timer for one of the following lengths of time: 10, 20, 30, 60, 90, 120,
150, 180, 210, 240, 270, 300, 330, or 360 minutes.

reads “Off.” You can also cancel the sleep timer by turning the TV
off, then turning it on again.
Viewing a VCR or camcorder tape
When you connect a VCR or camcorder to your TV with the A/V jacks,
you need to adjust your TV. To do this:
1 Press the TV/VIDEO button when you wish to view a video tape, a
video game, or any signal from equipment connected to the TV’s
A/V jacks.
✓ If you do not have any equipment connected to the A/V jacks, the TV will
display the message, “Connect the A/V jacks.”
If you have equipment connected to both the front and the rear A/V
jacks, the TV will only display the signal from the front A/V jacks.
If you have equipment connected to either the front jacks or the
rear jacks (but not both the front and the back), the TV will
automatically display the signal from the connected equipment.
