Using the TV’s Menu System
Tip
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 MenuPicture Quality) or you’re just
plain tired of exploring, press CLEAR to remove
the menus from the screen and start over
again.
Menus, On-screen Help and Control Panels
This section explores menus of your TV beginning with some information on using menus and control panels. Each menu is
outlined and detailed to help you get the most from your TV. The Guide Plus+ Menu, Parental Controls, and Web Browser
menu items are discussed in the Features chapter while Assisted Setup is discussed in the Connections and Setup chapter.
The first menu you see when you press the MENU button on the remote is
called the Main Menu. To access the Main Menu.
1. Press the MENU button (the Main Menu appears).
2. Use the arrow buttons (left,right,up,down) to move through the menu
items.
3. Press the OK button or right arrow to select a highlighted item in the menu.
Or, press the number beside of the menu item to go directly to the menu
item. For example, in the Main menu press 3 to go straight to the Audio
menu.
Exiting a menu
There are three ways to exit a menu:
• Highlight 0 (Go Back) menu button and press OK, or press GO BACK on
the remote.
• Press 0 on the remote when you are highlighting the left side of the menu.
• Press CLEAR. The on-screen displays are cleared from the screen and you
return to TV viewing.
On-Screen Help
Information appears on the screen to assist you in understanding your menu
selection. To the right of the highlighted menu item is a display area that
might provide on-screen help text of the item selected along with any submenu
items. In addition, a menu path appears at the top of the screen to let you know
where you are in the menu system. And at the bottom of the screen are two
lines of text that explain the currently highlighted item.
Controls
Controls let you adjust the default settings of your TV. You can choose a setting,
enter a number, or adjust a level such as tint or brightness. There are four types
of controls: sliders, choice lists (check boxes, radio buttons), alpha/numeric
entries, and menu (action, choice fields) buttons.
