audio commentary is quieter than the programme sound. 
Should positive values result (those in the area of +1… 
+50), the audio commentary is louder than the programme 
sound. If the value 0 results, then the audio commentary

 Explanations of the sound settings:
For analogue stations: In the case of programmes with 
twin sound, you can select separately between Mono/
Stereo or Sound 1 or Sound 2 for the loudspeakers and 
the headphones. 
For DVB channels: You can choose here if you wish to 
listen to a special soundtrack for the visually impaired over 
the speakers. This soundtrack uses an  audio commentary 
to describe the action taking place on-screen.
The menu item only appears if an audio commentary is 
offered by the current channel.
Reduces volume differences, e.g. for advertisements that 
are too loud.
You can indicate here which sound is output via the AV 
socket for dual sound programmes: Sound 1 (e.g. main 
language), sound 2 (e.g. foreign language), or sound 1+2 
(both simultaneously).
  Determining the maximum volume that can be set.
Specify the volume that is set when switching on the TV 
set with the mains switch. 
If the volume is higher when switching the TV set to the 
standby mode than specified here, then it is reduced 
automatically to the fixed maximum switching on volume 
when it is turned on again.
The volume can differ according to the individual stations. 
If the sound is too loud or too quiet in relation to other 
stations, adjust the volume. When the menu is open, you 
can select the stations one after another with P+/P– and 
adjust every single station conveniently.
Set stereo balance so that the volume impression is identical 
on the left and right.
If the automatic speech detection is activated, the sound 
of the current programme is automatically output with 
optimum comprehensibility when speech is detected.

   Adjusting the picture 
MENU: Call TV menu.
 Select Picture,
 go to the menu line below.
 Select the desired picture function,
  go to the menu line below.
  Make  changes.
Explanations of the picture settings:
Select the settings for your TV set‘s 3D display (see page 38).
You can switch between three fixed picture setting vari-
ants and the three personal picture values that you have 
set here (see page 37).
The contrast setting depends on the brightness of the 
room. The brighter the surroundings the higher the 
contrast should be set.
The power consumption of the TV set is directly depend-
ent on the value set here (see also page 24).
Set the colour intensity to suit your personal taste. The 
colours should appear natural.
Here, you can give the TV picture a warmer or colder hue 
according to your personal taste.
Set the brightness so that the black areas of the picture 
only just appear black.
Here you can adjust picture sharpness to obtain the best 
definition.
With active DNC (Digital Noise Control) you can eliminate 
or reduce picture noise.
Call with OK (see right hand column).Explanations of the picture settings (continuation):
Picture improvement on/off and demo mode for Image+
 
Active.
If this auto dimming is active then the television picture 
contrast is automatically reduced when the room bright-
ness diminishes (Optical Power Control –  OPC). This will 
also reduce the power consumption of the TV.
➠  Owing to a reduction in the luminance in 3D mode 
for technical reasons, this function is deactivated when 
showing 3D content. 
If this automatic dimming (“Video compensating Back-
light Dimming”) is active then, dependant on the current 
video content, the background lighting is reduced and 
concurrently the video signal is enhanced resulting in 
improved contrast to your television picture. This will also 
reduce the power consumption of the TV.
DMM reduces jolt in rapid picture object movements and 
rolling text displays. This applies especially for movies.

the 3D display format is normally recognised correctly when the factory 
setting 3D mode Ø automatic is selected. You may need to set the 3D 
mode manually to view 3D content from broadcasters.
  ➠  Owing to a reduction in the luminance in 3D mode for technical re-
asons, the 
  Auto dimming - Room (see page 36) is deactivated when
