SECTION 1

PRECAUTION

1.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS [EXCEPT FOR UK]

(1) The design of this product contains special hardware,

many circuits and components specially for safety purposes. For continued protection, no changes should be made to the original design unless authorized in writing by the manufacturer. Replacement parts must be identical to those used in the original circuits. Service should be performed by qualified personnel only.

(2) Alterations of the design or circuitry of the products should

not be made. Any design alterations or additions will void the manufacturer's warranty and will further relieve the manufacturer of responsibility for personal injury or property damage resulting therefrom.

(3) Many electrical and mechanical parts in the products have

special safety-related characteristics. These characteristics are often not evident from visual inspection nor can the protection afforded by them necessarily be obtained by using replacement components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Replacement parts which have these special safety characteristics are identified in the parts list of Service manual. Electrical components

having such features are identified by shading on the schematics and by ( ) on the parts list in Service manual. The use of a substitute replacement which does

not have the same safety characteristics as the recommended replacement part shown in the parts list of Service manual may cause shock, fire, or other hazards.

(4) Don't short between the LIVE side ground and

ISOLATED (NEUTRAL) side ground or EARTH side ground when repairing.

Some model's power circuit is partly different in the GND. The difference of the GND is shown by the LIVE : ( ) side GND, the ISOLATED (NEUTRAL) : ( ) side GND and EARTH : ( ) side GND. Don't short between the LIVE side GND and ISOLATED (NEUTRAL) side GND or EARTH side GND and never measure the LIVE side GND and ISOLATED (NEUTRAL) side GND or EARTH side GND at the same time with a measuring apparatus (oscilloscope etc.). If above note will not be kept, a fuse or any parts will be broken.

(5) When service is required, observe the original lead dress.

Extra precaution should be given to assure correct lead dress in the high voltage circuit area. Where a short circuit has occurred, those components that indicate evidence of overheating should be replaced. Always use the manufacturer's replacement components.

(6) Isolation Check (Safety for Electrical Shock Hazard)

After re-assembling the product, always perform an isolation check on the exposed metal parts of the cabinet (antenna terminals, video/audio input and output terminals, Control knobs, metal cabinet, screw heads, earphone jack, control shafts, etc.) to be sure the product is safe to operate without danger of electrical shock.

a) Dielectric Strength Test

The isolation between the AC primary circuit and all metal parts exposed to the user, particularly any exposed metal part having a return path to the chassis should withstand a voltage of 3000V AC (r.m.s.) for a period of one second. (. . . . Withstand a voltage of 1100V AC (r.m.s.) to an appliance rated up to 120V, and 3000V AC (r.m.s.) to an appliance rated 200V or more, for a period of one second.) This method of test requires a test equipment not generally found in the service trade.

b) Leakage Current Check

Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet (do not use a line isolation transformer during this check.). Using a "Leakage Current Tester", measure the leakage current from each exposed metal part of the cabinet, particularly any exposed metal part having a return path to the chassis, to a known good earth ground (water pipe, etc.). Any leakage current must not exceed 0.5mA AC (r.m.s.). However, in tropical area, this must not exceed 0.2mA AC (r.m.s.).

Alternate Check Method

Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet (do not use a line isolation transformer during this check.). Use

an AC voltmeter having 1000Ω per volt or more sensitivity in the following manner. Connect a 1500Ω 10W resistor paralleled by a 0.15µF AC-type capacitor

between an exposed metal part and a known good earth ground (water pipe, etc.). Measure the AC voltage across the resistor with the AC voltmeter. Move the resistor connection to each exposed metal part, particularly any exposed metal part having a return path to the chassis, and measure the AC voltage across the resistor. Now, reverse the plug in the AC outlet and repeat each measurement. Any voltage measured must not exceed 0.75V AC (r.m.s.). This corresponds to

0.5mA AC (r.m.s.). However, in tropical area, this must not exceed 0.3V AC (r.m.s.). This corresponds to 0.2mA AC (r.m.s.).

1.4 HANDLING LCD PANEL

1.4.1 PRECAUTIONS FOR TRANSPORTATION

When transporting the unit, pressure exerted on the internal LCD panel due to improper handling (such as tossing and dropping) may cause damages even when the unit is carefully packed. To prevent accidents from occurring during transportation, pay careful attention before delivery, such as through explaining the handling instructions to transporters. Ensure that the following requirements are met during transportation, as the LCD panel of this unit is made of glass and therefore fragile:

(1) USE A SPECIAL PACKING CASE FOR THE LCD PANEL

When transporting the LCD panel of the unit, use a special packing case (packing materials). A special packing case is used when a LCD panel is supplied as a service spare part.

(2) ATTACH PROTECTION SHEET TO THE FRONT

Since the front (display part) of the panel is vulnerable, attach the protection sheet to the front of the LCD panel before transportation. Protection sheet is used when a LCD panel is supplied as a service spare part.

(3) AVOID VIBRATIONS AND IMPACTS

The unit may be broken if it is toppled sideways even when properly packed. Continuous vibration may shift the gap of the panel, and the unit may not be able to display images properly. Ensure that the unit is carried by at least 2 persons and pay careful attention not to exert any vibration or impact on it.

(4) DO NOT PLACE EQUIPMENT HORIZONTALLY

Ensure that it is placed upright and not horizontally during transportation and storage as the LCD panel is very vulnerable to lateral impacts and may break. During transportation, ensure that the unit is loaded along the traveling direction of the vehicle, and avoid stacking them on one another. For storage, ensure that they are stacked in 2 layers or less even when placed upright.

1.4.2 OPTICAL FILTER (ON THE FRONT OF THE LCD PANEL)

(1) Avoid placing the unit under direct sunlight over a

prolonged period of time. This may cause the optical filter to deteriorate in quality and COLOUR.

(2) Clean the filter surface by wiping it softly and lightly with a

soft and lightly fuzz cloth (such as outing flannel).

(3) Do not use solvents such as benzene or thinner to wipe the

filter surface. This may cause the filter to deteriorate in quality or the coating on the surface to come off. When cleaning the filter, usually use the neutral detergent diluted with water. When cleaning the dirty filter, use water-diluted ethanol.

(4) Since the filter surface is fragile, do not scratch or hit it with

hard materials. Be careful enough not to touch the front surface, especially when taking the unit out of the packing case or during transportation.

1.4.3 PRECAUTIONS FOR REPLACEMENT OF EXTERIOR PARTS

Take note of the following when replacing exterior parts (REAR COVER, FRONT PANEL, etc.):

(1) Do not exert pressure on the front of the LCD panel (filter

surface). It may cause irregular COLOUR.

(2) Pay careful attention not to scratch or stain the front of the

LCD panel (filter surface) with hands.

(3) When replacing exterior parts, the front (LCD panel) should

be placed facing downward. Place a mat, etc. underneath to avoid causing scratches to the front (filter surface).

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. “DEVICE 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.

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.

When the VCR is not ready, the following messages are displayed.

ERROR MESSAGE

NO RECORDING POSSIBLE

NO RECORDING, MEDIA PROBLEM

NO RECORDING, DEVICE BUSY

Cause and countermeasure

The VCR is not able to record. Check the VCR.

The TV input is set to EXT-4 or PC. Since the EXT-4 picture or PC picture cannot be output to EXT-2, DIRECT REC is not possible.

The recording device is not ready to record. Check the VCR tape.

The recording device cannot record as it is recording or playing. Check the VCR.

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 you cannot turn on the TV

• Is the mains plug connected to the mains outlet?

• Is the power lamp lit? If not, press the A button on the TV.

• Make sure you 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 you 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 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 30 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 32 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 26 to try to solve the trouble.

• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings been adjusted properly? Follow the description “BRIGHT-2” and “COLOUR” on page 25 to try to adjust them properly.

Troubleshooting

• 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.

• Since this TV is designed to make full use of the resolution of the original video source, the motion may appear unnatural when the video source is input with progressive-scanning component signals. If this occurs, change the output setting of the connected device to interlacescanning component signal output. See the instructions that came with the device for more information.

 Poor sound

• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE properly? If not, follow the description “BASS” or “TREBLE” on page 28.

• 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 28 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 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 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, 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.

 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.

• 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.

ENGLISH

Troubleshooting

• The top of the TV and the screen may become hot during use but this has no affect on the performance of the TV. Make sure that the ventilation holes are not blocked.

• When the picture is unstable, the screen may become white for a moment. This happens when the signal which drives the liquid crystal is missing. This is not a fault.

• 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 fault and the image will eventually disappear.
