The "Listen to" function allows you to determine how your rIWwill
receive an audio signal and play back the sound that you hear. You
can set this function to "Stereo," "S.A.P.," and[ "Mono."
• For almost all situations, you should choose "Stereo." W:[th this
setting, the TV will play stereo broadcasts in stereo and mono
broadcasts in mono. If a channel is broadcasting in stereo, the
word "Stereo" will be displayed when you tune to that channel.
• Some TV stations will broadcast a separate audio programming,
or S.A.P., signal. This signal i!s an additional audio soundtrack
that you can't hear during normal TV Viewing. An S.A.P. signal
might be related to the program you are watching (e.g. a
soundtrack in a foreign language), or it might be unrelated (e.g.
a weather report). If a channel is broadea,_ting an S.A.P. signal,
the letters "SAP" will appear on-screen when you tune to that
channel. Choose "Listen to: SAP" to hear the S.A.P. signal.
• Use the "Mono" setting if you are receiving a weak audio
signal. This setting will reduce background noise. However,
with this setting, the TV will only play in m_no, even if tlhe
program you are watching is in stereo.
An on-screen display appears when programs are broadcast in
stereo or when a separate audio programming (S.A.P.) is awdlable.
