Troubleshooting

If you are experiencing any problem with your display, before
calling for service, please review the following troubleshooting tips.

There is no picture or sound.

• The power LED is off.

- Is power supplied to this monitor?

- Is the power cord disconnected? (See page 14.)

- Is the main power switch off? (See page 20.)

• The power LED lights orange.

- This monitor is in standby mode. Turn on the power. (See
page 20.)

• The power LED ashes green.

- There is no input signal.

- Is an input mode selected that is appropriate for the input
terminal to which the cable is connected? (See page 23.)

- If any external equipment is connected, make sure the
equipment is operating (playing back).

Remote control does not work.

• Are the batteries inserted with polarity (+,-) aligned? (See

page 17.)

• Are the batteries exhausted?

• Point the remote control unit toward the monitor’s remote

control sensor. (See page 17.)

Sound from left and right speakers is reversed.
Sound is heard from only one side.

• Are audio cables connected properly?

There is a picture but no sound.

• Is the sound muted?

• Make sure the volume is not set to minimum.

• Are audio cables connected properly?

Unstable video.

• The signal may be incompatible.

• Try the automatic screen adjustment when D-SUB is in

use.

The video from the HDMI input terminal does not appear
properly.

• Does the HDMI cable support 4K, and is it HDMI standard

compliant? The monitor will not work with cables that are
not standard compliant.

• Is the input signal compatible with this monitor? (See pages

38 and 39.)

• If the connected device does not support 4K, set HDMI

MODES to MODE2.

The video from D-Sub input terminal does not appear
correctly.

• Is the input signal compatible with this monitor? (See page

38.)

Control buttons do not work.
There is no picture.

• Load noises from outside may be interfering with normal

operation. Turn off the main power and turn it on after
waiting at least 5 seconds, and then check the operation.

The input mode changes automatically.

• When NO SIGNAL AUTO INPUT SEL. is ON and

the current video signal input stops, the input mode
automatically changes to the mode of an active video
signal.

Consequently, the input mode may change even in the

following cases:

- When a computer enters standby mode.

- When video play is stopped with a playback device.

When “AUTO DIMMING” is displayed.

• When the internal temperature of the monitor rises

excessively, the brightness of the backlight automatically
decreases in order to prevent a further temperature rise. If
you attempt to adjust the brightness while the monitor is in
this state, “AUTO DIMMING” is displayed and you cannot
change the brightness.

• Remove the cause of the excessive temperature rise.

The monitor makes a cracking sound.

• You may occasionally hear a cracking sound from the

monitor. This happens when the cabinet slightly expands
and contracts according to change in temperature. This
does not affect the monitor’s performance.

The Power LED is ashing in red and green alternately.
When “TEMPERATURE” is displayed in the corner of the
screen.

• When the internal temperature of the monitor rises

excessively, the brightness of the backlight decreases
automatically in order to prevent high-temperature­related problems. When this occurs, “TEMPERATURE” is

displayed on the screen and the Power LED ashes red

and green alternately.

• If the internal temperature rises further, the monitor

automatically enters standby mode. (The Power LED

continues ashing red and green alternately.)

• Remove the cause of the excessive temperature rise.

- If the monitor enters standby mode due to a rise in
temperature, to return to normal display, turn the power
switch off and then back on again. The monitor, however,
will enter standby mode again if the cause of the
temperature rise is not eliminated. (See page 7.)

- Check whether the monitor is placed at a location where
a quick rise in temperature is likely. Internal temperature
rises quickly if the vents on the monitor are blocked.

- Internal temperature rises quickly if dust accumulates
inside the monitor or around the vents. Remove dust if
possible. Ask SHARP dealer about removing internal dust.
