inches away.
• Adjust antenna position to improve reception. Use SIGNAL LEVELS MENU to determine
best reception. You may be in an area of weak signal coverage.
• AM antenna must be upright.
• Move antennas farther from TV or other electronic equipment.
FM sound is distorted• Adjust antenna position to reduce interference.

A display button does not•Calibrate the display screen. When you can only initiate a function by pressing the button
activate its function when too far off center, then a display screen calibration may be necessary. Calibrating the
pressed on center display screen aligns the button icon with the appropriate area of the screen.
1. Press and hold the source display area (top center) until CAL appears.
2. Press the SOURCE button as close to its center as possible. The KEYPAD button
appears.
3. Press the KEYPAD button as close to its center as possible. A small round button
appears at the bottom right of the screen.
4. Press the small round button as close to its center as possible to exit the calibration
function with a newly calibrated screen.
