REFERENCE

No sound, picture okay

Maybe sound is muted. Try pressing volume up button to restore sound.

Maybe speakers are turned off. Check the Audio Output and Speakers control panel in the Audio menu.

If using an S-VHS component, remember to also connect the component’s L and R AUDIO OUT jacks to the TV’s L and R INPUT jacks.

Can’t select certain channel

Channel may be blocked or not approved in the Parental Controls menu.

If using a VCR, check to make sure the TV/VCR switch on the VCR is in the correct position.

Turns off while playing

Schedule off function may have been activated (parental control).

Electronic protection circuit may have been activated because of a power surge. Wait 30 seconds and then turn on again. If this happens frequently, the voltage in your house may be abnormally high or low.

Noisy stereo reception

May be a weak station. Use Audio menu to choose mono sound.

No picture, no sound but TV is on

Maybe the cable/air function is set to the wrong position.

Maybe a vacant channel is tuned.

If watching VCR (connected only through antenna input), make sure TV is tuned to channel 3 or 4 – same as CH3/4 switch on VCR. Also check to make sure TV/VCR switch on VCR is in correct position.

Sound okay, picture poor

Check antenna connections.

Try adjusting sharpness function to improve weak signals.

CARE AND CLEANING

CAUTION: Turn OFF your monitor before cleaning.

You can clean the monitor as required, using a soft lint-free cloth. Be sure to occasionally dust the ventilation slots in the cabinet to help assure adequate ventilation.

The monitor’s screen may be cleaned with a soft, lint-free cloth as well. Take care not to scratch or mar the screen. If necessary, you may use a cloth dampened with warm water.

Never use strong cleaning agents, such as ammonia-based cleaners, or abrasive powder. These types of cleaners will damage the monitor.

While cleaning do not spray liquid directly on the screen, or allow liquid to run down the screen and inside the monitor. Also, avoid placing drinks or vases with water on top of the monitor. This could increase the risk of fire or shock hazard or damage to the monitor.

Caution: If fixed (non-moving) images are left on the screen for long periods, they may be permanently imprinted on the screen. Such images include network logos, phone numbers, and video games. This damage is not covered by your warranty. Extended viewing of channels displaying these images should be avoided.
