Troubleshooting
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this “Troubleshooting” well before you
request having the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, if the AC plug
is disconnected from the AC 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 determine. If a
question arise when you are operating a function, read the page(s) corresponding to the
operation of the function well, not this Troubleshooting guide.
• After you have followed the Troubleshooting description or the operating description of the
functions concerned without any success, remove the AC plug from the AC outlet and request a
repair of your TV. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or remove the rear cover of the TV.
IF YOU CANNOT TURN ON THE TV
IF YOU CANNOT TURN ON THE TV
• Is the AC plug connected to the AC outlet?
• Is the POWER lamp lit? If not, press the Main
power button.
• If noise totally obscures the picture (snow),
the aerial or aerial cable may have trouble.
Check the following to try to solve the
trouble: Has the TV and aerial been con-
nected properly? Has the aerial cable been
damaged? Is the aerial pointed to the right
direction? Is the aerial itself faulty?
• If the TV or aerial receives interference from
the other devices, stripes or noise may
appear in the picture. Move such device as an
amplifier, personal computer, or a hair drier
that can cause interference away from your
TV, or try changing its location. If the aerial
suffers interference from a radio tower or
high-voltage wire, please contact your local
dealer.
• If the TV receives interferences from signal
reflecting from mountains or building,
double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try to
change the aerial’s direction or replace the
antenna with the one with better directional-
ity.
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings for the
TV channels correct? Follow the description
“COLOUR SYSTEM button” on page 8 to try
to solve the trouble.
NO PICTURE/NO SOUND
• Have you chosen a TV channel whose
reception is extremely bad? In this case, the
BLUE BACK function will be activated, the
entire screen becomes blue, and the sound
is muted. In spite of this, if you want to view
the TV channel, follow the description
“BLUE BACK” on page 9 to try to change the
BLUE BACK function setting to OFF.
• Are your SOUND SYSTEM settings for the
TV channels correct? Follow the description
“SOUND SYSTEM button” on page 11 to try
to solve the trouble.
AUTO SIGNAL DETECT IN DVD
MENU DOES NOT WORK
• Please check that the AUTO DVD DETECT
function is on or off.
• Press button ( VCR or DVD Player ) to turn
the machine off and turn it on again ; do not
turn the machine off and on suddenly.
• Has COLOUR or BRIGHT been controlled
properly? Follow the description “PICTURE
SETTING” on page 8 to try to adjust them
properly.
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended
because it may not record correctly.
• When a white and bright still image (such as
a white dress) is displayed on the screen, the
white part may look as if it were coloured. It
is a phenomenon unavoidable due to the
nature of the picture tube itself, and not due
to a TV failure. When the picture disappears
from the screen, the unnatural colours will
also disappear.
• Inspect the video cable connection on
VIDEO-3 that they are connected properly.
WHEN TV IS NOT VIDEO-3, AUTO
SIGNAL DETECT WORK WHILE VCR
OR DVD PLAYER WAS ON.
• Inspect the video cable connection on
VIDEO-3 that they are connected properly.
• In a certain VCR or DVD Player, the function
might operate by the discontinuity of the
signal.
AFTER TV WAS ON, AUTO DVD
DETECT WORK
• Video signal from VCR or DVD Player cause
the function run properly to indicate that
there are video signal on VIDEO-3 channel.
• 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, and not because of malfunction.
20
Troubleshooting (continued)
POOR SOUND
OTHER CONCERNS
• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE
properly? If not, follow the description
“Adjusting the sound” on page 11 to try to
adjust them properly.
• When the TV channel reception is poor, it
can be hard to hear the stereo or bilingual
sound. In this case, follow the description
“STEREO / I•II” on page 11 to hear the
sound more easily by changing it to a mono
sound.
• When the AUTO SHUTOFF function oper-
ates, the TV is automatically turned off. If the
TV is turned off suddenly, try to press the
POWER button to turn on the TV once again.
At this time, if the TV resumes a normal
state, there is no problem.
• If you bring a magnetized device such as a
speaker near to your TV, a picture may be
warped or unnatural colours appear at the
corners of the screen. In this case, keep the
device apart from your TV. If the speaker
causes such phenomena, use the magnetic-
shielded speaker instead.
• A picture may be tilted due to the influence
of the earth’s magnetism. In this case, use
the “PICTURE TILT” on page 9 to complete
the tilt.
• It takes a short period of time from the time
an operation such as changing channels is
per-formed until an image is displayed. This
is not a malfunction. This is the time
required for the image to stabilize before it
can be displayed.
OPERATION DISABLED
• Have the batteries of the remote control
become exhausted? Follow the description
“Putting the batteries into the remote
control” on page 6 and replace them with
new batteries to try solve the problem.
• Have you attempted to use the remote
control at the sides or rear of the TV or at a
location more than seven meters apart from
the TV location? Operate the remote control
in the front of your TV or a location less than
seven meters from your TV to try to solve
the problem.
• The TV may emit a crackling sound due to a
sudden change in temperature. It does not
matter if a picture or sound does not show
any abnormality. If you hear crackling
sounds frequently while you are viewing the
TV, other causes may be assumed. For
precautionary purposes, request your
service technician to inspect it.
• Touching the screen may cause you feel a
slight electric shock due to its static electric-
ity. It is an unavoidable phenomenon due to
the construc-tion of the picture tube. It is not
a problem with the TV. You can rest assured
that this static discharge does not have
harmful influence over the human body.
• When you are viewing a teletext
programme, you cannot operate the menus.
Press the TV/VIDEO button to return the
teletext programme to the ordinary TV
programme to try operating the menus.
• Is the CHILD LOCK function set to ON? If the
CHILD LOCK function is set to ON, you
cannot operate the TV with the front control
buttons of the TV. Follow the description
“CHILD LOCK” on page 15 to try to set the
CHILD LOCK function to OFF.
• If the TV operation becomes disabled
suddenly, press the Main power button on
the TV and turn off the main power. Try to
press the Main power button again to turn
on the main power. If the TV returns to a
normal state, it is not a failure.
