Picture
SmartPicture™
A touch of the SMART button on the remote control provides the option
of selecting one of four factory preset positions to enhance enjoyment
of video games, sports, movies or weak signals. Select the desired option
and all important picture elements are instantly adjusted to optimize
viewing pleasure.
25" Dark Glass Picture Tube
Our standard dark glass picture tube combines an advanced electron gun
design, 36% transmission dark glass faceplate, black matrix, specially tinted
phosphors and a 100˚ deflection angle to provide greater contrast ratio
than ever before in a standard tube–as well as offering a higher degree of
picture sharpness, fine focus, bright detail, and color picture clarity.
Black Stretch
Special circuitry has been incorporated into this television receiver to
enhance the darker portions of the picture for added realism and overall
picture quality.
Remote Control
Universal TV/VCR/Cable Remote
Controls all features and functions of this monitor/receiver with direct
menu access plus activates exclusive SmartSound and SmartPicture options.
In addition, this remote controls all important operating features and
functions of virtually all infrared VCRs, and on/off and CHANNEL ▲▼
on most cable converter/decoders. (Remote #Y227JA-AA)
Convenience
Surf™
Eliminates the frustration of trying to remember what channels had
programs of interest while channel surfing. After establishing the Surf™
configuration with the user-friendly menu, the viewer can store up to
eight stations in the Surf™ memory and then surf only those channels at
the touch of a button.
SmartMute™
An audio mute advancement that automatically activates closed captioning
when the MUTE button is pressed. Now dialogue and narratives (on
Closed Caption telecasts) can be displayed on screen whenever the MUTE
button is pressed, without the aid of an optional, external decoding device.
Easy First Time Setup
This friendly, useful, smart, and easy feature is available the first time this
TV is turned on with a signal connected. SETUP can be accessed through
the main onscreen menu offering language selection (English, Spanish, or
French) and auto program (automatically selecting and storing all available
CATV and/or ANTENNA channels in the tuner memory).
Onscreen Clock with Sleep Timer
The correct time appears on screen for a few seconds whenever channels
are changed or the STATUS button on the remote control is pushed.
The Sleep Timer automatically turns off the TV at a preset time of up to
120 minutes from the time the feature is activated. Sleep timer settings
are programmed in 15-minute increments.
Trilingual Onscreen Display
Onscreen displays assist in selecting preferred picture performance
levels, choice of regular or cable viewing source, and indicate the
activation of special features. Displays may be put on screen in English,
Spanish, or French.
Auto Programming
When activated, this feature automatically scans all available channels–from
regular antenna or cable–and programs only active broadcast stations into
memory. CHANNEL ▲ or CHANNEL ▼ buttons, on the remote or at the
set, will then sequence through only those preprogrammed channels.
Closed Caption
Onscreen Volume Bar
Sound
SmartSound™
When activated, SmartSound™ keeps volume levels constant between
programs and commercials, and from one channel to another. SmartSound™
constantly monitors the audio signal, reducing a signal that’s too loud and
increasing a signal that’s too weak.
dbx ® Hi-Fi Stereo Sound System
The stereo sound system built into this monitor/receiver incorporates an
MTS/SAP decoder which permits reception and reproduction of broadcast
stereo television programs, as well as Second Audio Program transmissions
(where available). dbx
® noise reduction eliminates hiss and high-frequency
interference from the stereo sound reproduction.
