Other Information

No picture, no sound but TV is on

Maybe the signal type is set wrong. Go to page 28 for detailed instructions.

The channel might be blank — change channels.

If you’re watching your VCR and it’s connected with coaxial cable to the Antenna/Cable jack, tune the TV to channel 3 or 4 (whichever channel is selected on the 3/4 switch on the back of your VCR). Also check to make sure the TV/VCR button on the VCR is in the correct mode (press the TV/VCR button on your VCR).

DPMS might be turned on. Go to page 29 for more instructions. If DPMS is turned on and you’re in VID2-PC Input, make sure the cable to the RGB/YPbPr jack is connected.

Sound okay, picture poor

Check antenna connections. Make sure all of the cables are firmly connected to the jacks.

Try using the advanced picture settings to improve the picture. Go to page 26 for more instructions.

Black box appears on the screen

Closed caption might be on. Check Closed Caption in the Preferences menu. Go to page 27 for more instructions.

The Remote Control Doesn’t Work

Something might be between the remote and the remote sensor on the component. Make sure there is a clear path.

Maybe the remote isn’t aimed directly at the component (DVD, TV, VCR) that you’re trying to operate.

Maybe remote is not in TV Mode. Press the TV button so remote will control TV.

Maybe batteries in remote are weak, dead, or installed incorrectly. Put new batteries in the remote. (Note, if you remove the batteries, you may have to reprogram the remote to operate other components.)

You might need to reset the remote: remove batteries and press the number 1 button for at least 60 seconds. Release the 1 button, replace the batteries, and (if necessary) program the remote again.

Problems with V-Chip/Parental Controls

The rating limits don’t work

You must activate the settings. Go to the MAIN MENU (press MENU on your remote), select Parental Control, highlight and turn on Lock Parental Controls (box has check mark).

I don’t remember my password and I want to unlock the TV

If you forget your password you can reset it. Make sure no menus are displayed on-screen. Simultaneously press and hold VOL < on the TV’s side panel and the OK button on the remote for approximately 10 seconds. Enter a new password next time you access the Lock Parental Controls menu.

The V-Chip won’t let me watch a program even though it’s not rated as violent.

Maybe the movie was given an NR (Not Rated) status. After you block movie ratings, you must unlock NR separately in order to view movies with an NR rating.

Care and Cleaning

CAUTION: Turn OFF your TV before cleaning.

You can clean the TV 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 TV’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 TV.

While cleaning do not spray liquid directly on the screen, or allow liquid to run down the screen and inside the TV. Also, never place drinks or vases with water on top of the TV. This could increase the risk of fire or shock hazard or damage to the TV.
