Tips
Poor reception The proximity of mountains or high buildings may be responsible for ghost
pictures, echoing or shadows. In this case, try manually adjusting your picture: see
Fine Tune (p. 6) or modify the orientation of the outside aerial. If you are using an
indoor aerial, reception may be difficult in certain conditions.You can improve
reception by rotating the aerial. If the reception remains poor, you will need to
use an external aerial.
No picture Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right
system? (p. 6). Poorly connected euroconnector cables or aerial sockets are often
the cause of picture or sound problems (sometimes the connectors can become
half disconnected if the set is moved or turned). Check all connections.
Digital distortion The low quality of some digital picture material may be the cause of digital image
distortion. In this case select the Soft setting using the Smart picture key a on
the remote control.
No sound If on certain channels you receive a picture but no sound, this means that you do
not have the correct TV system. Modify the System setting (p. 6).
The amplifier connected to the set does not deliver any sound? Check that you
have not confused the audio output with the audio input.
PC and PIP modes Check that you have configured the computer on a compatible display resolution
don’t work ? (see p. 13).
Remote control The set does not react to the remote control; the indicator on the set no longer
flashes when you use the remote control? Replace the battery.
Standby If the set receives no signal for 15 mins, it automatically goes into standby mode.
To save power, your set is fitted with components that give it a very low power
consumption when in standby mode (less than 1 W).
Cleaning the set Only use a clean, soft and lint-free cloth to clean the screen and the casing of
your set. Do not use alcohol-based or solvent-based products.
Still no results? Disconnect the mains plug of the set for 30 seconds then reconnect it.
If your set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself: contact your dealer's
after-sales service.

Glossary
DVI (Digital Visual Interface):A digital interface
standard created by the Digital Display Working
Group (DDWG) to convert analog signals into
digital signals to accommodate both analog and
digital monitors.
VGA (Video Graphics Array): a common standard
graphics display system for PCs.
RGB signals
:These are the three video signals, Red
Green Blue, which make up the picture.
Using these signals improves picture quality.
S-VHS Signals:These are 2 separate Y/C video
signals from the S-VHS and Hi-8 recording
standards.The luminance signals Y (black and
white) and chrominance signals C (colour) are
recorded separately on the tape.
This provides better picture quality than with
standard video (VHS and 8 mm) where the Y/C
signals are combined to provide only one video
signal.
NICAM sound:Process by which digital sound
can be transmitted.
System:Television pictures are not broadcast in
the same way in all countries.There are
different standards: BG, DK, I, and L L’.The
System setting (p. 5) is used to select these
different standards.This is not to be confused
with PAL or SECAM colour coding. Pal is used
in most countries in Europe, Secam in France,
Russia and most African countries.The inputs
EXT1 and EXT2 are used to read NTSC
coded recordings.
