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.
ENGLISH
If you cannot turn on the TV
• Are the AC plug on the power cord from the TV is
connected to AC outlet?
• Make sure to set the VCR/TV/DVD switch to the TV
position. You cannot turn the TV on when the VCR/TV/
DVD switch is set to the VCR or DVD position.
If you cannot turn off the TV
• Make sure to set the VCR/TV/DVD switch to the TV
position. You cannot turn the TV off when the VCR/TV/
DVD switch is set to the VCR or DVD position.
No picture
• Have you chosen a TV channel with very poor
reception? If so, the NOISE MUTING 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 “NOISE MUTING” on page 17 to
change the NOISE MUTING function setting to OFF.
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 high-voltage
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.
• Have the COLOR and BRIGHT settings been adjusted
properly? Follow the description “Picture Adjustment”
on page 15 to try to adjust them properly.
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended because it may
not record correctly.
• 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 “Sound Adjustment” on page 16.
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 7 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 the front of
your TV or from less than seven metres away.
• If the TV suddenly stops responding, disconnect the
power cord of the TV from the AC outlet.
Connect them to the AC outlet again to turn on the TV.
If the TV returns to a normal state, it is not a failure.
25
Page 27
Troubleshooting
Other concerns
• 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.
• 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 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.
• The top of the TV and the screen may become hot during
use but this has no affect on the performance of the TV.
Ensure that the ventilation holes are not blocked.
• When the picture is unstable, the screen may become
white for a moment. This occurs when the signal which
drives the liquid crystal is missing. This is not a
malfunction.
• When a still image has been displayed for a long period,
a faint residual image may remain on the screen for a
short time after the power has been turned off or when
another image is displayed. This is not a malfunction and
the image will eventually disappear.
• When the correct picture has not been displayed on screen,
the following error messages will display on screen.
NO SIGNAL - TV recived no signal from PC, you may
check your PC is working correctly or not.
CABLE NO INSERT - The cable is not connected correctly.
Ensure that the cable is connected correctly.
OUT OF RANGE - The picture resolution is out of limit.
Ensure that the PC picture resolution is set correctly.
