ADJUSTING THE PICTURE SETTINGS

Your TV can be adjusted to suit your preferences and viewing conditions.

To adjust the picture mode settings:

Menu > Picture > Picture Mode

1.Use the Navigation buttons on the remote to highlight Picture Mode, then use the Left/Right Navigation buttons to change the picture mode:

Vivid — Sets the picture settings to values that produce a brighter, more vivid picture.

Bright — Great for viewing everyday TV, such as news and TV shows, that requires a brighter image with motion enhancements.

Calibrated — Accurate colors intended for cinema content viewing in a bright room.

Calibrated Dark — Accurate colors intended for cinema content viewing in a dark room or at nighttime.

Game — Reduces throughput delays and optimizes the picture settings for displaying game console output. Also the preferred picture mode for computer mode.

Sports — Sets the picture settings to values ideal for watching sport events with motion control setting.

TIP: If you save changes to the setting for a picture mode, an asterick will appear after its name. See Saving a Custom Picture Mode on page 12.

2.To manually change each of the picture settings, use the Up/Down Navigation buttons on the remote to highlight that picture setting, then use the Left/Right Navigation buttons to adjust the setting:

Backlight (SDR content) or Tone Mapping (HDR content) — Adjusts the LED brightness to affect the overall brilliance of the picture.

Brightness — Adjusts the black level of the picture. When this setting is too low, the picture may be too dark to distinguish details. When this setting is too high, the picture may appear faded or washed out.

Contrast — Adjusts the white level of the picture. When this setting is too low, the picture may appear dark. When this setting is too high, the picture may appear faded or washed out. If the setting is too high or too low, detail may be difficult to distinguish in dark or bright areas of the picture.

Color — Adjusts the intensity of the picture colors.

Tint — Adjusts the hue of the picture. This setting is useful in adjusting the flesh tones in the picture. If flesh appears too orange, reduce the level of color before adjusting tint.

Sharpness — Adjusts the edge sharpness of picture elements. It can be used to sharpen non-HD (high definition) content; however, it will not produce detail that does not otherwise exist.
