Troubleshooting

If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully before you ask to have the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may think there is a problem with the TV itself.

Important:

This troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose causes are not easy to decide. If you have a question when you are operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully, not this troubleshooting guide.

If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains plug and ask for your TV to be repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to remove the rear cover of the TV.

If the power lamp flashes, there is a problem with the TV. Unplug the mains plug and ask for your TV to be repaired.

„If you cannot turn on the TV

Is the mains plug connected to the mains outlet?

„No picture or no sound

Have you chosen a TV channel with very poor reception? If so, the BLUE BACK function will be activated: the entire screen becomes blue, and the sound is muted. If you still want to view the TV channel, follow the description “BLUE BACK” on page 25 to change the BLUE BACK function setting to OFF.

If the SYSTEM setting for a TV channel is incorrect, it may prevent the sound from being issued. Follow the description “EDIT/MANUAL” on page 27 to use the MANUAL function to try to change the SYSTEM setting.

„Poor picture

If noise (snow) totally blocks out the picture, there may be a problem with the aerial or aerial cable. Check the following to try to solve the problem:

–Have the TV and aerial been connected properly?

–Has the aerial cable been damaged? –Is the aerial pointing in the right

direction?

–Is the aerial itself faulty?

If the TV or aerial suffers interference from other equipment, stripes or noise may appear in the picture. Move any equipment such as an amplifier, personal computer, or a hair drier, that can cause interference away from your TV. Or try moving the TV. If the aerial suffers interference from a radio tower or high- voltage wire, please contact your local dealer.

If the TV suffers interference from signals reflecting from mountains or buildings, double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try to change the aerial’s direction or replace it with one with better directionality.

Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings correct? Follow the description “COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 22 to try to solve the trouble.

Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings been adjusted properly? Follow the description “BRIGHT” and “COLOUR” on page 21 to try to adjust them properly.

Videotaping teletext is not recommended because it may not record correctly.

When a white and bright still image (such as a white dress) is displayed on the screen, the white part may look as if it is coloured. This is unavoidable due to the nature of the picture tube itself, and not due to a TV failure. When the picture disappears from the screen, the unnatural colours will also disappear.
