How to remove the channel name, volume bar and mute icon from Philips TV screen?

2) Use the cursor buttons [Up][Down][Left][Right] to select [Setup] and press the [OK] button to confirm
3) Select [TV Settings] and press the [OK] button

After selecting TV settings:

4) Press the cursor [Down] to select [Preference] and press the cursor [Right]
5) Press the cursor [Down] to select [TV settings size] and press the cursor [Right]
