When connecting a device (such as S-VHS
VCR) which enables an S-VIDEO signal (Y/
C signal) to be output, you can enjoy highquality picture of the S-VIDEO signal (Y/C
signal).
Preparation:
• At first, read the Device Instruction
Manual and “Additional preparation” on
page 32 to connect the device to the TV
properly. Second, follow the Device
Instruction Manual to set the device so
that an S-VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) can
be output to the TV.
• Do not set y (S-VIDEO input) to the
EXT terminal connected to a device
which cannot output an S-VIDEO (Y/C
signal). If it is set wrongly, a picture
cannot appear.

• Setting y (S-VIDEO input) changes
the head character from “E” to “S”. For
example, “E2” is changed to “S2”.
• Even a device which enables the SVIDEO signal (Y/C signal) to be output
may output a regular video signal
(composite signal) depending on the
device setting. If a picture cannot appear
because y (S-VIDEO input) setting has
been made, read the device Instruction
Manual carefully again to check for the
device settings.

CC number.
• Find the CH/CC number (CC110 to CC161) corresponding to the TV channel (SECAM-L
system) from a French cable TV station, based on the broadcast frequency of the TV channel.
When you do not know the broadcast frequency, please contact the cable TV station.
• The CH/CC numbers of CH102-CH169 and CC110-CC161 correspond to the TV channels
being broadcast by a SECAM-L system. The other CH/CC numbers correspond to the TV
channels being broadcast by a method other than a SECAM-L system.

Troubleshooting
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this “Troubleshooting” well before
you request having the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, if
the AC plug is disconnected from the AC 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 cause are not easy to determine. If a
question arise when you are operating a function, read the page(s) corresponding to the
operation of the function well, not this Troubleshooting guide.
• After you have followed the Troubleshooting description or the operating description of the
functions concerned without any success, remove the AC plug from the AC outlet and request
a repair of your TV. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or remove the rear cover of
the TV.
• Flashing of the power lamp indicates a malfunction.
Unplug the mains plug and ask for your TV to be repaired.
If you cannot turn on the TV
• Is the AC plug connected to the AC
outlet?
No picture/No sound
• Have you chosen a TV channel whose
reception is extremely bad? In this case,
the BLUE BACK function will be
activated, the entire screen becomes blue,
and the sound is muted. In spite of this, if
you want to view the TV channel, follow
the description “BLUE BACK” on
page 22 to try 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 24 to use the
MANUAL function to try to change the
SYSTEM setting.
Poor picture
• If noise totally obscures the picture
(snow), the aerial or aerial cable may have
trouble. Check the following to try to
solve the trouble:
Has the TV and aerial been connected
properly?
Has the aerial cable been damaged?
Is the aerial pointed to the right
direction?
Is the aerial itself faulty?
• If the TV or aerial receives interference
from the other devices, stripes or noise
may appear in the picture. Move such
devices as an amplifier, personal
computer, or a hair drier that can cause
interference away from your TV, or try
changing its location. If the aerial suffers
interference from a radio tower or highvoltage wire, please contact your local
dealer.
• If the TV receives interference from
signal reflecting from mountains or
building, double-pictures (ghosting) will
occur. Try to change the aerial’s direction
or replace the antenna with the one with
better directionality.
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings for
the TV channels correct? Follow the
description “COLOUR SYSTEM” on
page 19 to try to solve the trouble.
• Has COLOUR or BRIGHT been
controlled properly? Follow the
description “BRIGHT” or “COLOUR” on
page 18 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
were coloured. It is a phenomenon
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.
36
Page 38
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, and not
because of malfunction.
Poor sound
• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE
properly? If not, follow the description
“BASS” or “TREBLE” on page 21 to try
to adjust them properly.
• When the TV channel reception is poor, it
can be hard to hear the stereo or bilingual
sound. In this case, follow the description
“STEREO / I • II” on page 21 to hear the
sound more easily by changing it to a
mono sound.
Operation disabled
• Have the batteries of the remote control
become exhausted? Follow the
description “Putting the batteries into the
Remote control” on page 4 and replace
them with new batteries to try to solve the
problem.
• Have you attempted to use the remote
control at the sides or rear of the TV or at
a location more than seven meters apart
from the TV location? Operate the remote
control in the front of your TV or a
location less than seven meters from your
TV to try to solve the problem.
• When you are viewing a teletext
programme, you cannot operate the
menus. Press the b button to return the
teletext programme to the ordinary TV
programme to try operating the menus.
• If the TV operation becomes disabled
suddenly, press the Main power button on
the TV and turn off the main power. Try
to press the Main power button again to
turn on the main power. If the TV returns
to a normal state, it is not a failure.
Other concerns
• When the SLEEP TIMER function
operates, the TV is automatically turned
off. If the TV is turned off suddenly, try to
press the # (Standby) button to turn on
the TV once again. At this time, if the TV
resumes a normal state, there is no
problem.
• When a WSS signal is included in the
broadcast signal or the signal from an
external device, or when the TV is
receiving a control signal from an external
device, the ZOOM mode will change
automatically. When you want to return to
the previous ZOOM mode, press the
c button to choose the ZOOM
mode again.
• If you bring a magnetised device such as a
speaker near to your TV, a picture may be
warped or unnatural colours appear at the
corners of the screen. In this case, keep
the device apart from your TV. If the
speakers causes such phenomena, use the
magnetic-shielded speakers instead.
• A picture may be tilted due to the
influence of the earth’s magnetism. In this
case, use the “PICTURE TILT (Only for
AV-32T4SP)” on page 31 to complete 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 malfunction. This
is the time required for the image to
stabilize before it can be displayed.
• The TV may emit a crackling sound due
to a sudden change in temperature. It does
not matter if a picture or sound does not
show any abnormality. If you hear
crackling sounds frequently while you are
viewing the TV, other causes may be
assumed. For precautionary purposes,
request your service technician to inspect
it.

Troubleshooting
• Touching the screen may cause you feel a
slight electric shock due to its static
electricity. It is an unavoidable
phenomenon due to the construction of
the picture tube. It is not a problem with
the TV. You can rest assured that this
static discharge does not have harmful
influence over the human body.
