When you press the MUTE button, you automatically activate the

Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts
The multi-channel TV sound (MTS) feature allows you to listen to
high-fidelity stereo sound while you watch TV. MTS can also transmit
a second audio program (SAP) containing a second language, music,
or other audio information (when provided by individual stations).
When the TV receives a stereo or SAP broadcast, the word STEREO
or SAP appears on-screen every time you turn the TV on, change the
channel, or press RECALL.
The MTS feature is not available when the TV is in VIDEO mode.
To listen to stereo sound:
1. Press MENU, and then press
x
or

until the AUDIO menu
appears.

2. Press

to highlight MTS.
3. Press

Note :
A second audio program (SAP) can be heard
only on those TV stations that offer it. For
example, some TV stations broadcast music
as a second audio program. If you have SAP
on, you will see the current program on the
screen but hear music instead of the
program’s normal audio.
If you have SAP on, and the station you are
watching is not currently broadcasting a
second audio program, you will see the
picture but not hear any sound. If this
happens, but the TV in STEREO mode so
you can hear the station’s normal audio.
