Troubleshooting & Tips
Image persistence - ghosting
Please note that ghosting may occur while displaying a persistent image (still or paused image). LCD/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 mode for extended periods of time.
No power
If your TV has no power, please check the power cord plug is connected to the mains power socket.
Poor picture
- Have you selected the correct TV system?
- Is your TV 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 channel frequency if you have done manual tuning.
- Please retune the channels.
- The picture quality may degrade when two devices are connected to the TV at the same time. In such a case, disconnect one of the devices.
No picture
-
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.
-
Is the aerial connected properly?
