TROUBLESHOOTING

Before calling a service technician, review following information for possible causes and solutions for the problem you are experiencing.

NO PICTURE, NO SOUND

    1. Check if the fuse or circuit breaker is working.
  1. Plug another electrical device into the outlet to make sure it is working or turned on.
  2. Poor power plug contact with the outlet.
  3. Check the signal source.

NO COLOR

  1. Change the colour system.
  2. Adjust the saturation.
  3. Try another channel. Black-white program may be received.

REMOTE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK

  1. Change the batteries.
  2. Batteries are not installed correctly.
  3. Main power is not connected.

NO PICTURE, NORMAL SOUND

  1. Adjust the brightness and contrast.
  2. Broadcasting failure may happen.

NORMAL PICTURE, NO SOUND

  1. Press the volume up button to increase volume.
  2. Volume is set to mute, press MUTE to restore sound.
  3. Change the sound system.
  4. Broadcasting failure may happen.

UNORDERLY RIPPLES ON THE PICTURE

It is usually caused by local interference, such as cars, daylight lamps and hair dryers. Adjust the antenna to minimize the interference.

BLANK SCREEN IN PC MODE

(only for models with PC terminals)

Perhaps the TV cannot recognize the PC set resolution. Choosing the best resolution or other standard resolutions for the Windows system is recommended. Set refresh rate to 60Hz.

If the antenna is located in the fringe area of television signal where the signal is weak, the picture may be marred by dots. When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a special antenna to improve the reception.

  1. Adjust the position and orientation of the indoor/outdoor antenna.
  2. Check the connection of antenna.
  3. Fine tune the channel.
  4. Try another channel. Broadcasting failure may happen.

IGNITION

Black spots or horizontal streaks appear, or the picture flutters or drifts. This is usually caused by interference from car ignition system, neon lamps, electric drills, or other electrical appliance.

GHOST

Ghosts are caused by the television signal which follows two paths. One is the direct path, the other is reflected off tall buildings, hills, or other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve the reception.

This interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some cases, loss of contrast in the picture. Detect and remove the radio interference source.

Note:

If the problem persists after applying the solutions, please contact your local support centre.
