This chapter describes the contents of the package in which the TV is
shipped and provides an overview of the features of your Wega TV.
The FD Trinitron Wega (pronounced VAY-GAH) is characterized by
outstanding contrast, uncompromising accuracy, and corner-tocorner detail.
You will recognize the superiority of Wega technology almost
immediately. The first thing you will probably notice is minimal glare
from the flat picture tube. This flat-screen technology improves
picture detaii without distortion, unlike conventional curved screens.
The FD Trinitron delivers outstanding image detail not only at the
screen center, but also at the corners - so you can enjoy a bright,
clear picture from any location in a room.
Along with your new Trinitron TV, the packing box contains a remote
control and two AA (R6) batteries. These items are all you need to set
up
and use the TV.
Some of the features that you will enjoy with your new TV include:

equivalent, while doubling the number of vertical and horizontal

such as DVD, satellite, and digital camcorders. The Video Menu
allows you to select interlaced, progressive, or (lineMotion”‘”
output. The DRC Palette option lets you customize the level of
detail (Reality) and smoothness (Clarity) to create up to three
custom palettes.
