Notes
• Some DVD player terminals may be labeled differently:
• Since the high quality pictures on a DVD disc contain a lot of information,
picture noise may appear. In this case, adjust the sharpness (“SHARP”) in the
PERSONAL ADJUST menu of the PICTURE MODE menu (see page 30).
• Connect your DVD player directly to your TV. Connecting the DVD player
through other video equipment will cause unwanted picture noise.
