Tips

Care Of The Screen

Clean the screen with a slightly damp, soft
cloth. Do not use abrasive solvents as they

may damage the TV screen coating layer.

Poor Picture

Have you selected the correct TV system? Is
your TV set or house aerial located too close

to non-earthed audio equipment or neon
lights,etc.?

Mountains or high buildings can cause
double pictures or ghost images. Sometimes

you can improve the picturequality by chang­ing the direction of the aerial.

Is the picture or Teletext unrecognisable?
Check if you have entered the correct fre-

quency.
The picture quality may degrade when two

peripherals are connected to the TV at the
same time. In such a case, disconnect one of

the peripherals.

No Picture

Sound

You can not hear any sound. Did you per­haps interrupt the sound, pressing the

button?
Sound is coming from only one of the

speakers.Is the balance set to one extreme?
See Sound menu.

Remote Control

Your TV no longer responds to the remote
control. Perhaps the batteries are exhausted.

If so you can still use the local buttons at the
bottomof the TV.

Have you selected the wrong menu? Press
the

button to return to TV mode or press

the

buttonto return to the previous menu.

No solution

Switchyour TV set off and on. If this does not
work, call the service personnel; never at­tempt to repair it yourself.

Is the aerial connected properly? Are the
plugs connected tightly to the aerial socket?

Is the aerial cable damaged? Are suitable
plugs used to connect the aerial? If you are
in doubt,consult your dealer.

No Picture could mean that your TV is not
receiving a transmission. Have you selected

the correct button on the remote control?Try
once more.
