Front Control Panel
The shaded buttons on the front control panel are duplicated on the remote control. The top row of labels shows the
control functions when there are no TV menus displayed on the screen. The bottom row of labels shows the control
functions when the TV menus are displayed on the screen or when a special function has been activated. See “Remote
Control Overview” for further details on the functions of these buttons.

If the TV does not respond to either the remote control or the front panel controls and/or
does not power off, press the SYSTEM RESET button with a pointed item, such as the end
point of a paperclip. The TV will turn off and the TIMER light will flash quickly for about one
minute. When the TIMER light stops flashing, you may again turn on the TV. The changes
you made the last time the TV was on before you used the SYSTEM RESET button may be
lost. Any changes that you previously saved are not lost.
A/ V Reset
There may be times when you wish to reset the A/V (Audio and Video) settings back to the factory defaults. To return
all the settings at once, press GUIDE and FORMAT on the front panel at the same time. To reset the defaults for
individual devices, use the A/V Memory Reset selection on the Audio/Video menu.
