Gamma: The Gamma control determines how gray shades are displayed between 
minimum input (black) and maximum input (white) for all signals. A good gamma setting 
helps to optimize blacks and whites while ensuring smooth transitions for the 
“in-between” values utilized in other grays.
Unlike brightness and contrast controls, Gamma allows you to lighten or darken the 
overall tone of your images without changing the extremes. All images will be more vibrant 
while still showing good detail in dark areas.
The default Gamma setting of 2.20 is appropriate for most typical home theater 
environments.
Save Settings (not available for RGB input): The Crystal Series LCD Display lets you 
save image quality settings for each input and supported resolution to a preset. You can 
recall this preset at a later time by simply pressing a button on the remote control or using 
the Restore Settings menu command (see below).
You should save changes to any of the following settings to a preset; otherwise they will 
be lost when a new input source or resolution is selected:
• Brightness
• Contrast
• Color saturation
• Tint
• Sharpness
• Gamma
• Color temperature and white balance
Restore Settings (not available for RGB input): To recall a preset, choose Restore 
Settings from the Picture Adjust menu and select “Custom,” “ISF Day” or “ISF Night.” Or, 
use the corresponding buttons on the remote control. 
Audio  
To adjust the Crystal Series LCD Display audio settings, select Audio from the Main Menu 
and press ENTER
Balance: To adjust the left/right speaker balance, select Balance from the Audio Menu 
and press ENTER. Use the left- and/or right-arrow buttons to make one channel louder 
than the other. 
Equalizer: The Crystal Series LCD Display has a five-band graphic equalizer that you can 
use to boost or cut certain audio frequencies. To use it, select Equalizer from the Audio 
menu and press ENTER. Select one of four equalizer presets – Standard (flat), Music, Film 
or Speech – or select Custom to create your own according to taste. The five frequency 
bands are 100, 300, 1000, 3000 and 10,000 Hertz (Hz).
Surround: The Crystal Series LCD Display has a “surround sound” mode that simulates a 
multi-channel sound system. To use the surround mode, select Surround from the Audio 
menu and set it to On. 
When Surround is set to On, the graphic equalizer is disabled.
