TDC777D OPERATOR’S MANUAL (501-3432100)

USING THE SETUP MENUS

In addition to the user settings described on pages 16 through 23, setup menus may be available in your on-screen guide. These should be described in 
the information provided by your service-provider. There may also be on-screen information to explain these menus.

However, certain settings may affect how your set-top and TV work. See the table below for information about typical menu items and settings (they 
depend on which on-screen guide is running on your set-top, so may vary from those given below).
