Notes

Adjusting video settings on this TV requires an original remote. The necessary buttons are not present on the face of the TV, and universal remotes usually don't have a valid code for this model.

While it does have an on screen display, the PV-M2021 does not have a service menu. Adjustments are performed using trim pots on the chassis.
