cable. Audio Return Channel-enabled (ARC) TVs allow 
audio to be sent over an already connected HDMI 
cable, eliminating the need for a separate audio cable.

CHANGING THE INPUT SOURCE
External devices such as DVD players, Blu-ray Players, and video 
game consoles can be connected to your TV.  To use one of 
these devices with your TV, you must first change the input 
source in the on-screen menu.
To change the input device:
1 . Press the INPUT button on 
the remote. The input menu is 
displayed.
2 .  Use the Up/Down  Arrow 
buttons or the INPUT button 
on the remote to highlight the 
input you wish to view and 
press  OK. The selected input is 
displayed.  
 
 
 
Note: Inputs may vary by TV.
CHANGING THE  SCREEN ASPECT RATIO
The TV can display images in five different modes: Normal, Stretch, 
Panoramic, Wide, and Zoom. Each mode displays the picture 
differently.
To change the screen aspect ratio:
1 . Press the WIDE  button on the 
remote.
2 .  Use the Arrow buttons to 
highlight the aspect ratio you 
wish to view and press OK.
• Normal  preserves the content’s 
original aspect ratio. Since the 
4:3 aspect ratio is not large 
enough to fill the TV’s screen, 
black bars are added to the left 
and right of the display image.
•  Stretch expands the display image to fill the screen. 
Images may appear wider than intended. If you are 
watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1) content, black 
bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the display 
image.  This option is only available when the TV is 
displaying a 720p/1080i source.
•  Panoramic  expands the display image to fill the screen. 
Images may appear wider than intended. If you are 
watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1) content, black 
bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the display 
image.  This option is only available when the TV is 
displaying a 480i/480p source.
•  Wide  stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio picture to the edges 
of the screen. Since the picture is being stretched, the 
display image may appear distorted. If the program 
is already formatted for widescreen viewing (1.85:1 or 
2.35:1), then black bars will appear on the top and 
bottom of the display image.
•  Zoom  expands images with black bars to fit the screen.

distinguish details. When this setting is too high, the 
picture may appear faded or washed out.
•  Contrast - Adjusts the white level of the picture. When 
this setting is too low, the picture may appear dark. When

elements. It can be used to sharpen non-HD (high 
definition) content; however, it will not produce detail that 
does not otherwise exist.
