Typically, you'll want to place your home theater equipment as shown in the illustration: Left, Center, and Right channel

speakers are set in front of you, creating what is refered to as a "front sound stage" to provide dialog and stereo sound.

The Surround Sound speakers (rear-channel sound) are set behind you and to the side.

There are many ways a home theater system can be arranged. ]he example shown here, is just one possible setup.

PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP) OPERA TION

OVERVIEW--- TWO PICTURES TWO SOURCES

Picture-in-Picture (PIP) allows your single TV to perform like two "P/s. As illustrated below, two different pictures can

be watched at the same time - on one TV screen - using the PIP feature. With this kind of convenience, you'll no

longer need to place two TVs side-by-side to keep track of two important football games being played at the same time.

The pictures on the TV screen are provided by the equipment, or "sources," connected to the Connection Panel on the

back of the TV. Of the many input jacks available on this connection panel, you can specify one input viewing source for

the TV's main picture and a separate input viewing source for the PIP image..

back of the TV, as shown below, you can watch one

channel as the Main Picture of the TV while a com-

pletely different channel is showing in the PIP window.

rhe instructions for using the two-tuner PIP capabilities

are different, depending on the remote control being

used. Refer to the "PIP Features/Controls" sections on
