Other Information

TV turns on unexpectedly

•Wake up timer might have been activated. Go to page 48 for instructions.

•Auto on might have been activated. Go to page 50 for instructions.

•You might have pressed CH+, CH- or INPUT on the remote accidentally.

Blank screen

•Make sure the component connected to the TV is turned on.

•Try another channel.

•If you're trying to watch something that's playing on a component connected to the TV (like a DVD or a VCR tape), press the TV button on the remote, then press INPUT until you get to the correct video input channel.

•When you first turn off your TV, the TV’s internal lamp starts its cool-down cycle. If you try to turn on the TV during the cool-down cycle, the TV turns back on and you’ll hear audio, but the picture will take a few moments to be displayed.

No sound, picture okay

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

•If using S-Video or Y, PB, PR, remember to also connect the component’s left and right audio output jacks to the TV’s L and R Audio Input jacks.

•The sound settings may not be set correctly. Go to page 44 for more information.

No picture, sound okay

•If the indicator on the front of the TV is blinking for one minute, the lamp inside of your TV may need to be changed. Go to page 60 for ordering information.

•You might have tried to turn on the TV during lamp cool-down. Wait a few moments and the picture will be displayed.

Sound okay, picture poor

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

•Try adjusting sharpness function to improve weak signals. Go to page 47 for more instructions.

Sound from external audio receiver/amplifier not in sync with the HDTV Monitor's screen

•If you're watching a program on the HDTV Monitor's screen and listening to the audio from the FIXED AUDIO output jacks, you might notice that the video and audio are slightly out of sync. The HDTV Monitor processes incoming video to optimize it for display, which results in a small delay before displaying the video on screen. The Video output jack does not process video for display, so it does not have the same delay. The FIXED AUDIO output jacks are in sync with the video signal from the Video output.

If you're using an external audio receiver to accompany video on the HDTV Monitor's screen, use the VARIABLE AUDIO output jacks.

Can’t select certain channel

•Make sure the remote control is in TV mode. Press the TV button and enter the channel number using the number buttons.

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

•If using a VCR, check to make sure the TV/VCR button on the VCR is in the correct mode (press the TV/VCR button on your VCR).

Noisy stereo reception

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

No picture, no sound but TV is on

•Maybe the cable/air function is set to the wrong position. Go to page 49 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 CABLE/ANTENNA 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).
