Tips

Care of the Screen

Clean the screen with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive solvents as they may damage the TV screen coating layer.

Poor Picture

Have you selected the correct TV system? Is your TV set or house aerial located too close to the loudspeakers, non-earthy audio equipment or neon lights, etc. ?

Mountains or high buildings can cause double pictures or ghost images. Sometimes you can improve the picture quality by changing the direction of the aerial.

The picture quality may degrade when two peripherals are connected to the TV at the same time. In such a case, disconnect one of the peripherals.

No Picture:

Is the aerial connected properly? Are the plugs connected tightly to the aerial socket? Is the aerial cable damaged? Are suitable plugs used to connect the aerial? If you are in doubt, consult your dealer.

No Picture means that your TV is not receiving any transmission. Have you pressed the correct keys on the remote control? Try once more.

Remote Control:

Your TV no longer responds to the remote control. Press the "TV" button on the remote control once more. Perhaps the batteries are exhausted. If so you can still use the local keys at the front of your TV.

Have you selected the wrong menu? Press "TV" key to return to TV mode or press "MENU" to return to the previous menu.

No solution:

Switch your TV set off and on. If this does not work, call the service personnel; never attempt to repair it yourself.
