Setting MTS/SAP stereo mode

The TV has a feature that allows reception of sound 
other than the main audio for the program. This feature 
is called Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS). The TV 
with MTS can receive mono sound, stereo sound and 
Secondary Audio Programs (SAP). The SAP feature 
allows a TV station to broadcast other information, 
which could be audio in another language or something 
completely different like weather information. 

You can enjoy Hi-Fi stereo sound or SAP 
broadcasts where available.

• 

Stereo broadcasts

  View programs like live sporting events, shows and 

concerts in dynamic stereo sound.

• 

SAP broadcasts

  Receive TV broadcasts in either MAIN or SAP sound.
  MAIN sound: The normal program soundtrack (either in 

mono or stereo).

  SAP sound: Listen to a second language, supplementary 

commentary or other information. (SAP is mono sound.)

If stereo sound is diffi cult to hear.

•  Obtain a clearer sound by manually switching to 

fi xed mono-sound mode.

NOTE

 

MTS only operates while in TV mode.

You can change MTS as 
shown below to match the 
television broadcast signal.
