section. If it is not yet connected, then the Voice Interaction section will not be relevant.
Accessibility short cut menu
The accessibility short cut menu allows you to change a number of settings that might help you use the TV including 
turning voice guide on and off. Voice Guide is text-to-speech that speaks the menu items on screen making the TV 
usable by people who cannot see or read the information on screen.
The menu contains a number of items including:
 ●Voice Guide. This works on every screen on the TV and when turned on speaks to identify items displayed on 
screen. For example, it tells you the selected volume, the current channel and program information. It also 
reads out the program information in the Electronic Program Guide (EPG).
 ●High Contrast mode allows you to display all menus with an opaque black background and a white font, 
providing maximum contrast.
 ●Enlarge enables the important elements on the screen such as the name of programs to be larger.
 ●Learn TV Remote opens a menu screen containing a picture of the remote control. On this screen, pressing 
the power button (top left button) will turn off the TV, but when any other button is pressed the TV will say 
the button name and briefly tell what that button does. This teaching mode helps you to learn the location 
and operation of the buttons on the Samsung Smart Remote without affecting normal TV operation. Press the 
return button twice to return to the previous screen.
