Using Your New TV

Notes
• Some DVD player terminals may be labeled differently:

• Since the high quality pictures on a DVD disc contain a lot of information,

picture noise may appear. In this case, adjust the sharpness (“SHARP”) in the
“ADJUST” menu of the “PICTURE MODE” menu (see page 25).

• Connect your DVD player directly to your TV. Connecting the DVD player

through other video equipment will cause unwanted picture noise.
