Adjusting the picture
Selecting the picture mode
You can select your desired picture settings from four different
modes, as described below.
To select the picture mode:
1 Press Y and open the Video menu.
2 Highlight Picture Settings and press T.
3 In the Mode field, select the picture mode you prefer.
4 To save the new settings, highlight Done and press T.
To revert to the factory defaults, highlight Reset and
press T.
Note:
• The picture mode you select affects the current input
only (ANT 1 in the example above). You can select a
different picture mode for each input.
• If you select one of the factory-set picture modes
(Sports, Standard, or Movie) and then change a
picture quality setting (for example, increase the
contrast or change the color temperature), the picture
mode automatically changes to Preference in the
Picture Settings menu.
• If you previously set the TV to High Bright mode, and
chose Reset in item 4 above, the TV will default to Low
Power mode. To set the TV back to High Bright mode,
see page 55.
