Using the TV’s Menu System
Tips
A shortcut method to access a menu item is to press
the number button on the remote that matches the
number next to the on-screen menu. For example, in
the Main Menu, press 2 to go straight to the Audio
menu.
Feel free to explore the menu system. If you’re ever
unsure where you are in the menu system, look at
the menu path at the top (for example, Main Menu,
Picture Quality) or if you’re just tired of exploring,
press CLEAR to remove the menus from the screen
and start over again.
