Adjusting the sound
Muting the sound
Press MUTE to temporarily reduce (1/2 mute) or turn off (mute) the
sound. The screen will display “1/2 MUTE” or “MUTE” in the lower
right corner. Each time MUTE is pressed, the mute mode changes in
the following order:
→ 1/2 MUTE → MUTE → Normal
When the TV is muted, the closed caption feature (page 43) is
automatically activated (but only if the closed caption mode is set to
OFF). To turn off captions, press MUTE again.
Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts
The multi-channel TV sound (MTS) feature allows you to listen to
high-fidelity stereo sound while watching your TV. MTS can also
transmit a second audio program (SAP) containing a second language,
music, or other audio information (if available in your area).
When the TV receives a stereo or SAP broadcast, the word STEREO
or SAP appears on-screen every time the TV is turned on, the channel
is changed, or RECALL is pressed.
Note: The MTS feature is not available when the TV is in VIDEO or
ColorStream mode.
To listen to stereo sound:
1. Press MENU, and then press x or • until the AUDIO menu
appears.

appears.
2. Press y or z to highlight MTS.

Note:
A second audio program (SAP) can be heard
only on those TV stations that offer it. If you
have SAP on, and the station the TV is
currently tuned to is in SAP mode but is not
currently playing a second audio program,
you will see the picture but may not hear
sound. If this happens, turn SAP off.
