This feature monitors and corrects both the sharpness control and noise reduction control. Audio/Video Jack Panels allows direct connections with VCRs, DVDs, PCs or other devices, providing quality TV picture and sound playback. Audio Volume Leveler (AVL) Control keeps the TV sound at an even level. Peaks and valleys that occur during program changes or commercial breaks are reduced, making for a more consistent, comfortable sound. AutoChron™ automatically sets the right time of day and maintains it with digital precision through brownouts, power failures, and even Daylight Savings Time adjustments. AutoLock™ allows you to block the viewing of certain channels or programs with certain ratings if you do not want your children to view inappropriate materials. Auto Programming scans (when activated) for all available channels from regular antenna or cable signals and stores only active broadcast stations in the TV's memory. AutoPicture™ allows you to change the picture settings (color, tint, contrast, etc.) for various types of programming, such as sports, movies, multimedia (games), or weak signals with the push of one button. AutoSound™ allows you to select from three factory-set controls and a personal control that you set according to your own preferences through the onscreen Sound menu. The three factory-set controls (Voice, Music, and Theatre) enable you to tailor the TV sound so as to enhance the particular programming you are watching. Closed Captioning allows the viewer to read TV program dialogue or voice conversations as onscreen text. Infrared Remote Control works your TV and other remote-controlled devices, such as VCRs, DVD players, cable converters, and satellite receivers. Surf Button allows you to easily switch among only the channels that are of interest to you (the ones that you have programmed into the TV's Surf control through the onscreen menu). Timer allows you to set your TV to turn itself ON and OFF once or daily like an alarm clock.
