YOUR PICTURE-IN-PICTURE FEATURE The Picture-In-Picture (PIP) function allows you to put a smaller picture, called the "inset, " on the bigger screen, or the "main" picture. Normally you would need some other piece of equipment, like a VCR, to act as a tuner to receive and display a second channel at the same time. Your Entertainment Machine eliminates that need by giving you two tuners on one TV. PIP is always available, no matter what equipment you have. Don't want to miss any of the big game, but hate commercials? [. . . ] For warranty service information, contact any Zenith authorized service center.
