Troubleshooting

2.1

Channels

No digital channels found during the installation

Make sure that all cables are properly connected and that the correct network is selected.

Previously installed channels are not in the channel list

Make sure that the correct channel list is selected.

2.2

General

The TV does not switch on

•Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet. Wait for one minute then reconnect it.

•Make sure that the power cable is securely connected.

Creaking sound at startup or power off

When you are turning the TV on, off or to standby, you hear a creaking sound from the TV chassis. The creaking sound is due to the normal expansion and contraction of the TV as it cools and warms up. This does not affect performance.

TV does not respond to the remote control

The TV requires some time to start up. During this time, the TV does not respond to the remote control or TV controls. This is normal behavior.

If the TV continues to be unresponsive to the remote control, you can check if the remote control is working by means of a mobile phone camera. Put the phone in camera mode and point the remote control to the camera lens. If you press any key on the remote control and you notice the infra-red LED flicker through the camera, the remote control is working. The TV needs to be checked.

If you do not notice the flickering, the remote control might be broken or its batteries are low.

This method of checking the remote control is not possible with remote controls which are wirelessly paired with the TV.

The TV goes back to standby after showing the startup screen

When the TV is in standby, a startup screen is displayed, then the TV returns to standby mode. This is normal behavior. When the TV is disconnected and reconnected to the power supply, the startup screen is displayed at the next startup. To turn the TV on from standby, press on the remote control or the TV.

The standby light keeps on blinking

Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet. Wait 5

minutes before you reconnect the power cable. If the blinking reoccurs, contact AOC TV Consumer Care.

Wireless connection

What you need

To connect the TV to the Internet wirelessly, you need a Wi-Fi router with a connection to the Internet.

Use a high-speed (broadband) Internet connection.

Make the connection

To make a wireless connection…

Step 1 - Make sure that your wireless network router is switched on.

Step 2 - Press the Settings key, select Network and press (right) to enter the menu.

Step 3 - Select Connect to network > Start now and press OK.

Step 4 - Select Connect and press OK. Step 5 - Select Wireless and press OK.

Step 6 - Select Scan to scan for your wireless network. If you have a router with WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can select WPS. Select your choice and press OK.

• Scan

Select Scan to scan for your wireless network (your wireless

router). The TV might find several wireless networks in your proximity.

• WPS

If your router has WPS, you can directly connect to the router without scanning. Go to the router, press the WPS button and return to the TV within 2 minutes. Then press Connect to make the connection.

If you have devices in your wireless network that use the WEP security encryption system, you cannot use WPS.

If you must use the WPS PIN code to connect, select Scan instead of WPS.

Step 7 - From the list of networks found, select your wireless network and press OK.

If your network is not in the list because the network name is hidden (you turned off the SSID broadcast of the router), select Manual entry to enter the network name yourself.

Step 8 - Depending on the type of router, you can now enter your encryption key (WEP, WPA or WPA2). If you have entered the encryption key for this network before, you can select Next to make the connection immediately.

If your router supports WPS or WPS PIN, you select WPS, WPS PIN or Standard. Select your choice and press OK.

• Standard

Select Standard to enter the encryption key (password, passphrase, or security key) manually. You can use the keyboard on the remote control to enter the encryption key. Once you have entered the key, press Connect.

• WPS PIN

To make a secured WPS connection with a PIN code, select WPS PIN and press OK. Write down the 8-digit PIN code shown and enter it in the router software on your PC. Return to the TV and press Connect. Consult the router manual on where to enter the PIN code in the router software.

Step 9 - A message will be shown when the connection is successful.

Problems

Wireless network not found or distorted

•Microwave ovens, DECT phones or other Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n devices in your proximity might disturb the wireless network.

•Make sure that the firewalls in your network allow access to the TV's wireless connection.

•If the wireless network does not work properly in your home, try the wired network installation.

Internet does not work

• If the connection to the router is OK, check the router connection to the Internet.

The PC and Internet connection are slow

•Look in your wireless router's user manual for information on indoor range, transfer rate and other factors of signal quality.

•Use a high-speed (broadband) Internet connection for your router.
