MTS/SAP stereo mode
The TV has a feature that allows reception of sound
other than the main audio for the program. This feature
is called Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS). The TV

and Secondary Audio Programs (SAP). The SAP
feature allows a TV station to broadcast other
information, which could be audio in another language
or something completely different like weather
information.
You can enjoy Hi-Fi stereo sound or SAP broadcasts
where available.
• Stereo broadcasts: View programs like live sporting
events, shows and concerts in dynamic stereo sound.
• SAP broadcasts: Receive TV broadcasts in either MAIN or
SAP sound. MAIN sound: The normal program soundtrack
(either in mono or stereo). SAP sound: Listen to a second
language, supplementary commentary or other information.
(SAP is mono sound.)

• Obtain a clearer sound by manually switching to fi xed
mono-sound mode.
