TROUBLE SHOOTING TIPS

No Power

• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10
seconds, then reinsert the plug into the outlet and
push the POWER button again.

• Check that the outlet is not on a wall switch.

• Be sure the fuse is not blown on the AC power
strip, if one is being used.

No Picture

• Check antenna/cable connections. Are they properly
secured to the TV’s ANT75Ω plug?

• Check the TUNER MODE control for the correct
tuner setting.

• Try running the Auto Program feature to find all
available channels.

• Press the AV button on the remote to make
sure the correct signal source is selected.

• If using an accessory device, be sure that it is
functioning properly.

• If in PC Mode, a video signal MUST BE present or
the TV will turn off.

No Sound

• Check the VOLUME buttons.

• Check the MUTE button on the remote control.

• If you’re attempting to hook up auxiliary
equipment, check the audio jack connections.

No AV Signal

• Check whether AV and S-Video sockets connected
simultaneously. If they are, disconnect the S-Video
socket. AV signal automatically overrides the S-Video
signal if both sockets are connected simultaneously.

S-VHS Color Becomes Faint

• Unplug socket for S-Video connection. Reconnect
the S-Video socket of the TV carefully to the VCR
socket.

TV Only Produces MONO Sound

• If using a cable box with RF only type connections,
the signal coming from the cable box will be
produced in MONO only.

• Check Sound control setting. Change setting to
Stereo.

Remote Does Not Work

• Check the batteries. Place lithium cell in the
remote. Be sure the (+) and (-) ends of the batteries
line up as marked inside the battery compartment.

• Clean the remote control and the remote control
sensor window on the TV.

• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10
seconds, then reinsert the plug into the outlet and
push the POWER button again.

• Be sure the fuse is not blown on the AC power
strip, if one is being used.

• Check to be sure the TV outlet is not on a wall
switch.

• Be sure that the remote is in the correct operating
mode.

• Be sure the remote is pointed at the Remote
Sensor Window on the TV. See page 3 of the Quick
Use Guide for details.

TV Displays Wrong Channel or No Channels
Above 13

• Repeat channel selection.

• Add the desired channel numbers (using the
CHANNEL EDIT control) into the TV’s memory.

• Check to be sure the TUNER MODES are set to
the CABLE option and run the Auto Program
feature to find all available channels.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING concerning stationary images on the TV
Screen: Do not leave fixed images on the screen for extended periods of time. This can cause uneven aging of the LCD
panel. Normal use of the TV should involve viewing of programs that have constantly moving or changing images. Do
not leave still images on screen for extended periods of time. Do not display the same images too frequently; if you do,
subtle “ghost” images can be left on the LCD screen. Sources of stationary images may be Laser discs, video games,
Compact Discs Interactive (CD-i), or paused Digital Video Discs (DVDs) or video tapes.

Here are some common examples of stationary images:

• DVD menus list DVD content.

• Letterbox black bars appear at the top and bottom of the TV screen when a wide screen (16:9) movie is viewed on a
TV with standard (4:3) aspect ratio. This is available with some DVDs.

• Video game images and scoreboards

• Television station logos cause a problem if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are
less likely to damage the picture tube.

• Stock market tickers may appear at the bottom of the TV screen if the TV programming covers this news.

• Shopping channel logos, pricing displays may be bright and may appear constantly during the show.
These are usually in the same location on the TV screen.

TV Location

• To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and an increased chance of TV failure, do not place the TV
where temperatures can become excessively hot (for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance).

• Allow a free flow of air around the TV.

Cleaning

• To avoid possible shock hazard, remove the TV’s power cord from the electrical outlet before cleaning.

• Regularly dust the TV with a dry, non-scratching duster.

• When cleaning the TV, take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry or using
anything abrasive. Do not use household cleaners. Wipe the screen with a clean cloth dampened with water.
Use even, easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.

• Occasionally vacuum the vents on the rear of the TV.

• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet. They may blemish the cabinet
permanently.
