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. LED 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-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. Is the picture or teletext unrecognisable? Check if you have entered the correct frequency. Please retune 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 on 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.

Recording Unavailable: To record a programme, you should first connect a USB disk to your TV while the TV is switched off. You should then switch on the TV to enable recording feature. Otherwise, recording feature will not be available. If you cannot perform recording, try switching off the TV and then re-inserting the USB device while the TV is switched off.

USB Is too Slow: If "USB is too slow" message is displayed on the screen while starting a recording, try restarting the recording. If you still get the same error, it is possible that your USB disk does not meet the speed requirements. Try connecting another USB disk.

Definition of Terms

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.

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.
