Empowering Key: Scenario Mode and Favorite Channels
Use the OSD to define your “e” Empowering key setting: Scenario mode and Favorite channel. The default value for the “e” key is the Scenario mode. Use the following method: Menu -> Empowering -> e Key Setting. Choose between “Favorite channel” or “Scenario Mode”. Now, when you press the “e” key, your chosen selection will be accessed.
Scenario Mode
Press the“e”Empowering key and use the Scenario Mode to select pre-defined audio and video settings for optimal enjoyment of the following scenarios: Standard, Movie, Sport, Concert, Game, User.
Mode Scenario Mode Design Direction
Standard
Standard mode allows you to watch your favourite channels with sharp, brilliant imagery via adaptive brightness and contrast adjustments. Clear-sounding audio is provided by SRS performance.
Movie
For comfortably enjoying movies at home, Movie mode displays dim scenes in clear detail; compensates for colour; and smoothly presents motion images. This is accomplished through optimal Gamma correction plus saturation, brightness and contrast adjustments. Movie mode makes the most of high-definition movie soundtracks by using SRS WOW technology.
Game
Game mode carefully details the exquisite graphics of modern video games, pro­viding lifelike entertainment while protecting your eyesight by adjusting bright­ness and contrast. What’s more, Game mode provides a heightened audio experi­ence via SRS WOW technology.
Sports
Sports mode is suited for outdoor sports programmes, with accurate background depth and clear gradation between the bright, outdoor playing field and darker auditoriums. Sports mode also brilliantly enhances colours and presents swiftly moving pictures without residual images. All of this is achieved via specific Gamma corrections and saturation adjustments. Precise audio can be heard, thanks to Tru­Bass performance.
Concert
Concert mode places you in a virtual concert hall, opera house or other dim envi­ronment by means of adaptive brightness and contrast adjustments. Concert mode accentuates symphonic harmonies and the tenor audio range using SRS WOW technology.

Troubleshooting
Before you call the Acer service center, please check the following items:
The following is a list of possible situations that may arise during the use of your LCD TV. Easy answers and solutions are provided for each one.
There is no picture or sound.
• Make sure the power cord is properly inserted in the power outlet.
• Make sure the input mode is correctly set by your selected input.
• Make sure the antenna at the rear of the TV is properly connected.
• Make sure the main power switch is turned on.
• Make sure the volume is not set to minimum or the sound is not set to mute.
• Make sure the headphones are not connected.
• Reception other than those of broadcasting stations can be considered.
Picture is not clear.
• Make sure the antenna cable is properly connected.
• Consider whether TV signals are being properly received.
• Poor picture quality can occur due to A-VHS camera or camcorder and other peripheral connections at
the same time. Switch off one of the other peripheral.
• The ‘ghost’ or double image may be caused by obstruction to the antenna due to high rise buildings
or hills. Using a highly directional antenna may improve the picture quality.
• The horizontal dotted lines shown on the pictures may be caused by electrical interference, e.g. hair
dryer, nearby neon lights and etc. Turn off or remove these equipment.
Picture is too dark, too light or tinted.
• Check the color adjustment.
• Check the brightness setting.
• Check the sharpness function.
• Fluorescent lamp may have reached the end of service life.
Remote control does not work.
