Chapter 6: Using the TV’s features
Using the blue screen function
When a TV is on but not receiving a signal, the screen typically
displays a “snowy” image and the speakers transmit a “static”
sound.
With the blue screen function set to On, the TV will
automatically mute the sound and replace the snowy image
with a solid blue screen until the TV receives a signal. Once a
signal is received, the normal image and sound are restored.
To turn on the blue screen function:
1 Press Y and open the Function menu.
2 Press B or b to highlight Blue Screen.
3 Press C or c to select On.
To turn off the blue screen function:
Select Off in step 3 above.
