Are you trying to use an input source with no device connected to it? For using other video/audio device, make sure the external device works normally first, then press INPUT and choose the right input source.

The Signal Type option may be set incorrectly. Go to page 20 for detailed instructions.

The channel may be blank. Try to search the channel again or change another channel.

The sound is fine, but the picture is poor.

If you can only get black and white pictures from external device that you've connected to your TV, maybe it is due to the video cables is not connected well, or they are connected wrongly. Check the connection stability first, then check the correctness. For AV input, the yellow video cable connects to the yellow Video In jack on the side of your TV. For Component input, the three Y, Pb, Pr video cables (red, blue, and green) should be connect to the corresponding input jacks on the side of your TV.

Check the antenna connections. Make sure all of the cables are firmly connected to the TV jack on side of your TV.

Try adjusting the color features to improve.

There is no sound, but the picture is fine.

The sound might be muted. Try pressing the MUTE button to restore sound.

If your audio source has only one jack or is a (mono) audio source, make sure you have plugged the connection into the Audio In L jack (white) on the TV.
