Watching picture-in-picture (PIP)
The picture-in-picture (PIP) feature allows you to watch two pictures
on-screen at the same time. The small PIP window can display a
signal from an antenna or cable TV broadcast, or from another device
connected to your TV, such as a VCR or DVD player.
To use the PIP feature:
1. Tune the TV to the channel you want to watch on the main
screen.
Note:
If you want to watch a signal from another device in the PIP
window, make sure you have connected the device properly. For
connection details, see “Connecting your TV,” pages 7–13.
2. Press PIP once to open a PIP window 1/9 the size of the screen.
Press PIP a second time to open a PIP window 1/16 the size of
the screen.

for the main screen, but you cannot view an ANT2 signal in the PIP
window.

source for the main screen, and you cannot view a ColorStream signal in
the PIP window.

NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE
EFFECTS ON TV PICTURE TUBE
Avoid displaying stationary images on
your TV screen for extended periods of
time. Fixed (non-moving) images (such
as a still PIP window) can become
permanently engrained in the picture
tube.
This type of damage is NOT
COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY
because it is the result of misuse.
See item 33 on page 4.
