Setting up your TV
Pre-set download
The VCR will automatically download the registered data on the TV channels from the TV. This means you do not need to set up the program channels on your VCR manually. The preset download function automatically begins when the initial setting is complete or whenever you carry out the AUTO PROGRAM or EDIT/MANUAL functions.
You can also carry out this function using your VCR controls.
When “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is displayed:
If “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is displayed, the download was not performed correctly. Before trying to download again, check that:
• the VCR power is turned on
• the VCR is T-V LINK compatible
• the VCR is connected to the EXT-2 terminal
• the SCART cable is fully wired.
Direct Rec
“What You See Is What You Record”
You can easily record to VCR the images that you are watching on the TV.
For details, read the manual for your VCR. Use your VCR controls. “VCR IS RECORDING” is displayed.
In the following situations, the VCR will stop recording if the TV is turned off, if the TV channel or input is changed, or if the menu is displayed on the TV:
• when recording images from an external device connected to the TV (for example a camcorder)
• when recording a TV channel after it has been unscrambled on a decoder
• when recording a TV channel by using the TV’s output because the VCR’s own tuner cannot properly receive that channel.
When the VCR is not ready (for example when there is no tape inserted), “NO RECORDING” is displayed. You cannot carry out Direct Rec using your TV’s control. Generally, the VCR cannot record a TV channel that it cannot receive properly on its own tuner, even if you can view that TV channel on the TV. However, some VCRs can record a TV channel by using the TV’s output if that channel can be viewed on the TV. For details, see your VCR instruction manual.

An y (S-VIDEO input) mark is displayed. You can view an S-VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) instead of the regular video signal (composite signal).
To cancel the y (S-VIDEO input) setting:
Press the yellow button and turn off y (S­VIDEO input) mark. The regular video signal (composite signal) pictures are resumed.
• The EXT-1 terminal does not support S­VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) and you cannot set y (S-VIDEO input) in the EXT-1 terminal.
• Setting y (S-VIDEO input) changes the head character from “E” to “S”. When an EXT terminal receives a normal video signal, “E1”, “E2”, “E3” or “E4” appears on the display. This changes to “S2” or “S3” when it receives an S-VIDEO signal.
• Even a device which can output an S-VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) may output a regular video signal (composite signal) depending on the device setting. If a picture cannot appear because the y (S-VIDEO input) setting has been made, read the device instruction manual carefully again to check for the device settings.

Additional preparation
Equipment which can output the
S-VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) such as an S-VHS VCR
Connect the equipment to an EXT terminal (but not the EXT-1 terminal).
You can choose between an S-VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) and a regular video signal (composite signal). For details of how to operate the equipment, see “y (S-VIDEO input)” on page 34.
T-V LINK compatible VCR
Be sure to connect the T-V LINK compatible VCR to the EXT-2 terminal. If not, the T-V LINK function will not work properly.
• When connecting a T-V LINK compatible VCR to the EXT-2 terminal, be sure to connect the decoder to the VCR. If not, the T-V LINK function may not work properly. After you have stored TV channels in the programme numbers (PR) list, set the DECODER (EXT-2) function for the programme number (PR) to ON to unscramble a scrambled TV channel. For details, see “EXT SETTING” on page 34.
Connecting headphones
Connect the headphones with a stereo mini­jack (3.5 mm diameter) to the headphone socket at the TV rear panel.
• No sound comes from the TV speakers when the headphones are connected.
Video or sound signal output from
the EXT-2 terminal
You can change over the output of the video/ sound signal from the EXT-2 terminal. This is useful when you want to dub the video/ sound from another device onto the VCR connected to the EXT-2 terminal. For details on how to do this, see “DUBBING” on page 35.
TV output from the EXT-1 terminal
The video/sound signal of a TV channel you are viewing is always output from the EXT-1 terminal.
• Changing over a programme number (PR) also changes over the TV output from the EXT-1 terminal.
• The video/sound signal from an EXT terminal cannot be output.
• Teletext programmes cannot be output.

Connecting speakers or an amplifier

See the audio equipment diagram, and connect the audio equipment to the TV.
Before connecting anything:
• Read the manuals that came with the amplifier and speakers.
• Turn the TV and amplifier off.
• Use impedance 8-ohm type speakers for surround speakers.
• To prevent magnetism from the speakers affecting the TV screen, use magnetic­shielded speakers for the front speakers.
• Connecting cables are not supplied.
• Pay attention to the positive + and negative - polarities when connecting the surround speakers to your TV.
• For the best effect, position the surround speakers at least 1 metre above the heads of seated viewers.
• If you want to use your external Dolby Surround decoder, connect it to the AUDIO OUT terminals. Then set all surround functions of the TV to OFF.
• The output from the AUDIO OUT terminal is not cut off by connecting headphones to the TV.

Additional preparation
Audio amplifier and front speakers
You can use external front speakers to listen to the TV sound instead of the TV speakers. Also note that when you want to use the DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MUSIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MOVIE, you can set it to issue sound from both of the TV speakers and external front speakers so that you can listen to spoken dialogues more clearly and easily. For details, see “Surround function (Dolby Pro Logic II)” on page 16.
• You cannot cut the sound from the front speaker even if you connect headphones to the TV.
External surround speakers
You can connect external surround speakers to the TV so that you can use the “DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MUSIC:” or “DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MOVIE:” on page 17. Before using the DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MUSIC or DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MOVIE, however, follow “Surround settings (Dolby Pro Logic II)” on page 17.

Troubleshooting

If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully before you ask to have the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may think there is a problem with the TV itself.
Important:
• This troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose causes are not easy to decide. If you have a question when you are operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully, not this troubleshooting guide.
• If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains plug and ask for your TV to be repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to remove the rear cover of the TV.
• If the power lamp flashes, there is a problem with the TV. Unplug the mains plug and ask for your TV to be repaired.
If you cannot turn on the TV
• Is the mains plug connected to the mains outlet?
No picture or no sound
• Have you chosen a TV channel with very poor reception? If so, the BLUE BACK function will be activated: the entire screen becomes blue, and the sound is muted. If you still want to view the TV channel, follow the description “BLUE BACK” on page 27 to change the BLUE BACK function setting to OFF.
• If the SYSTEM setting for a TV channel is incorrect, it may prevent the sound from being issued. Follow the description “EDIT/MANUAL” on page 29 to use the MANUAL function to try to change the SYSTEM setting.
Poor picture
• If noise (snow) totally blocks out the picture, there may be a problem with the aerial or aerial cable. Check the following to try to solve the problem:
–Have the TV and aerial been connected
properly? –Has the aerial cable been damaged? –Is the aerial pointing in the right
direction? –Is the aerial itself faulty?
• If the TV or aerial suffers interference from other equipment, stripes or noise may appear in the picture. Move any equipment such as an amplifier, personal computer, or a hair drier, that can cause interference away from your TV. Or try moving the TV. If the aerial suffers interference from a radio tower or high­voltage wire, please contact your local dealer.
• If the TV suffers interference from signals reflecting from mountains or buildings, double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try to change the aerial’s direction or replace it with one with better directionality.
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings correct? Follow the description “COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 24 to try to solve the trouble.
• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings been adjusted properly? Follow the description “BRIGHT” and “COLOUR” on page 23 to try to adjust them properly.
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended because it may not record correctly.
• When a white and bright still image (such as a white dress) is displayed on the screen, the white part may look as if it is coloured. This is unavoidable due to the nature of the picture tube itself, and not due to a TV failure. When the picture disappears from the screen, the unnatural colours will also disappear.

Troubleshooting
• When viewing images from commercially available video software products, or videos from videotapes which have been recorded improperly, the top of the image may be distorted. This is due to the condition of the video signal. There is nothing wrong with the TV.
Poor sound
• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE properly? If not, follow the description “BASS” or “TREBLE” on page 26.
• When TV channel reception is poor, it can be hard to hear stereo or bilingual sound. In this case, follow the description “STEREO / I • II” on page 26 to hear the sound more easily by changing it to a mono sound.
If the TV does not respond to the
remote control
• Have the batteries of the remote control worn out? Follow the description “Putting the batteries into the remote control” on page 8 and replace them with new batteries.
• Have you attempted to use the remote control from the sides or rear of the TV or from more than seven metres away from the TV? Use the remote control in front of your TV or from less than seven metres away.
• When you are viewing a teletext programme, you cannot operate the menus. Press the b button to return to the ordinary TV programme, and then try operating the menus.
• If the TV suddenly stops responding, press the main power button on the TV and turn off the main power. Press the main power button again to turn on the TV. If the TV returns to a normal state, it is not a failure.
Other issues
• When the SLEEP TIMER function operates, the TV is automatically turned off. If the TV suddenly turns off, try to press the # (standby) button to turn on the TV once again. If the TV goes back to normal, there is no problem.
• When the TV is receiving a wide-screen signal (WSS) or a signal from an external device affecting the screen size, the ZOOM mode automatically changes. When you want to resume the previous ZOOM mode, press the c button again.
• If you bring magnetised equipment such as a speaker near to your TV, the picture may be warped or unnatural colours may appear at the corners of the screen. In this case, keep the equipment away from your TV. If speakers cause this to happen, use magnetically-shielded speakers instead.
• A picture may be tilted due to the earth’s magnetic field. If so, use the “PICTURE TILT (Only for AV-32R47SK)” on page 36 to correct the tilt.
• It takes a short period of time from the time an operation such as changing channels is performed until an image is displayed. This is not a fault. This is the time needed for the image to stabilize before it can be displayed.
• The TV may make a crackling sound due to a sudden change in temperature. The picture or sound may be normal. If you hear crackling sounds frequently while you are viewing the TV, there may be other causes. As a precaution, ask your service technician to inspect it.
• Touching the screen may cause you to feel a slight electric shock due to its static electricity. This is unavoidable due to the construction of the picture tube. It is not a problem with the TV. You can rest assured that this static discharge is not harmful.
