SOUND ADJUSTMENT
ADJUSTING PICTURE
The TV is equipped with a feature known as Multi-channel TV
Sound or MTS. MTS broadcasts greatly enhance TV viewing by
bringing you programs with high fidelity stereo sound.
MTS also provides an extra channel called the Separate
Audio Program or SAP which broadcasters can use to
transmit a second language for bilingual transmission or for
other purposes.
LISTENING TO STEREO SOUND
When the TV is turned on or a channel selection is made, make
certain that the word “STEREO” appears on the screen. This
means that "Stereo" broadcasting is available. You can enjoy
stereo sound from the left and right speakers.
• When "Mono" broadcasting is received, no indication is
displayed.
• If the broadcast signal is not strong enough or clear stereo
sound is not available, press the AUDIO SELECT button to
change to mono sound. The noise should be eliminated.
Press it again to return to stereo sound.
LISTENING TO SAP (SEPARATE AUDIO PROGRAM)
When the TV is turned on or a channel selection is made, make
certain that the letters “SAP” appear on the screen. This means
