Difficulties and Possible Solutions (*Q refers to the Quick Use and Setup Guide that came with your TV.)

The TV remote control does not work

•Check that the batteries are installed correctly. See page Q-2*.

•If the batteries are dead, replace them with two “AA” size heavy duty (zinc chloride) or alkaline batteries. See page *Q-2.

•Be no farther than 30 feet from the TV when using the remote control and point the remote toward the remote-sensor window on the TV. See page *Q-2 for the location of the remote-sensor window.

•Clean the remote control and the remote-sensor window on the TV. See page *Q-2 for the location of the remote-sensor window.

•Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds, then reinsert the plug into the outlet and push the remote power or TV power/standby button again. To locate the TV power/standby button, see page *Q-2.

•If you have your TV plugged into an AC power strip, ensure that the fuse on the power strip is not blown.

•Check to see if the TV is on a wall switch.
