Tips

Screen Care

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

For your safety, unplug the mains plug when cleaning the set. When moving the TV, hold it properly from the bottom part.

Image Persistence

Please note that ghosting may occur while displaying a persistent image. LCD TVs' image persistence may disappear after a short time. Try turning off the TV for a while.

To avoid this, do not leave the screen in still picture for extended periods.

No Power

If your TV system has no power, please check the main power cable and connection to the mains socket outlet.

Poor Picture

Have you selected the correct TV system? Is your TV set or house aerial located too close to a non-earthed 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.

Is the picture or teletext unrecognisable? Check if you have entered the correct frequency. Please return the channels.

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 a transmission. Have you selected the correct button on the remote control? Try once more.

Also make sure the correct input source has been selected.

Sound

You can not hear any sound. Did you perhaps interrupt the sound, pressing the button?

Sound is coming from only one of the speakers. Is the balance set to one extreme? See Sound Menu.

Remote Control

Your TV no longer responds to the remote control. Perhaps the batteries are exhausted. If so you can still use the local buttons at the bottom of the TV.

Input Sources

If you cannot select an input source, it is possible that no device is connected.

Check the AV cables and connections if you have tried to connect a device.

Definition of Terms

Angle

Recorded onto some DVD discs are scenes, which have been simultaneously shot from a number of different angles (the same scene is shot from the front, from the left side, from the right side, etc.). With such discs, the ANGLE button can be used to view the scene from different angles.

Chapter Number

These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. A title is subdivided into many sections, each of which are numbered, and specific parts of video presentations can be searched quickly using these numbers.

DVD

This refers to a high-density optical disc on which high-quality pictures and sound have been recorded by means of digital signals. Incorporating a new video compression technology (MPEG II) and high-density recording technology. DVD enables aesthetically pleasing full-motion video to be recorded over long periods of time (for instance, a whole movie can be recorded).

DVD has a structure consisting of two 0.6-mm thin discs, which are adhered to each other. Since the thinner the disc, the higher the density at which the information can be recorded, a DVD disc has a greater capacity than a single 1.2 mm thick disc. Since the two thin discs are adhered to each other, there is the potential to achieve double-sided play sometime in the future for even longer duration play.

Subtitles

These are printed lines appearing at the bottom of the screen, which translate or transcribe the dialogue. They are recorded on the DVD discs.

Time Number

This indicates the playtime, which has elapsed from the start of a disc or a title. It can be used to find a specific scene quickly. (Not all discs permit the time search feature to be used. Availability is determined by the disc's manufacturer.)

Title Number

These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. When a disc contains two or more movies, these movies are numbered as title 1, title 2, etc.

Track Number

These numbers are assigned to the tracks, which are recorded on AudioCDs. They enable specific tracks to be located quickly.

Dolby Digital

Many movie theatres are equipped with 5.1 channel surround systems. This same type of technology is available to you in your home. To enjoy full 5.1-channel surround, your DVD player must be connected to an external Dolby Digital decoder via the digital outputs (either coaxial or optical).

Dolby Pro Logic

This is Dolby Laboratories' technology to decode Dolby Surround encoded programs actively. Dolby Surround programs have four channels of audio (Left, Center, Right and Surround) encoded into a standard 2-channel stereo signal. The rear channel is monaural.

LPCM

LPCM stands for Pulse Code Modulation and is digital audio.

MPEG

Short for Moving Picture Experts Group. This is an international standard for compression of moving images. On some DVDs digital audio has been compressed and recorded in this format.

DivX

DivX is a digital video compression technology based on MPEG-4 and developed by DivX Networks Inc.
