Troubleshooting

- Please check the following items before asking for repair service.

Symptom Check items

Neither picture - Check the contact of sockets is all right.
nor sound - Check the main power of the TV is turned on.

Picture is OK, - Check the Volume control is set to minimum position or mute.
but no sound

Sound is OK, but no color. - Check the color control is set to the minimum position, if not adjust the color

properly.

- Check the program is in color or black & white.

The picture is - Check the antenna is installed correctly, if not, adjust the antenna toward the
overlapped image broadcasting station.

- Check the “Fine Tuning” is set up correctly, if not adjust the fine tuning properly.

Picture has “snow noise”

- Check the antenna or its connection is correct, if not, correct the antenna fault or
connection cable fault.

- Check there is interference from car traffic or neon signs.

Stripes on picture - Check is interference by other electronic device, such as radio, television, etc. then

keep magnetic or electronic devices away from the TV.

Bad stereo or SAP sound. - Long distance from the station or other radio waves could cause bad sound

reception, if so change the mode to Mono

• If your VCR (or other external devices) has an S-Video terminal, S-Video connection is recommended because S-Video
signal has the better quality than VIDEO signal of A/V IN..

• If your external device has Component terminal and S-Video terminal both, Component connection is recommended.
Component video signal is superior to S-Video signal.

• The sound or image signals coming into COMPONENT or S-VIDEO will not be transmitted to MONITOR OUT terminals.

• S-VIDEO and VIDEO in AV IN share the same jack with AUDIO input. Thus ,they can't be used at the same time.

• COMPONENT inputs accept only 480i video signal, so make the external equipment(DVD or DTV Set -Top Box)to
480i mode.

Remote control does not work - Check the batteries power in the Remote control are weak.

- Check the objects blocking between IR sensor on the TV and the Remote control.
