TROUBLESHOOTING

If it appears that the DVD-Video player is faulty, first consult this checklist. It may be that something has been overlooked.

WARNING

Under no circumstances should you try to repair the set yourself as this will invalidate the guarantee.

If a fault occurs, first check the points listed, before taking the set for repair. If you are unable to solve a problem by following these hints, con- sult your dealer or service centre.

Symptom

No power

Distorted picture

Completely distorted picture / no colour in the TV screen

No sound

Remedy

Check if both plugs of the mains cord are properly connected.

Check if there is power at the AC outlet by plugging in another appliance.

Check if the built-in battery is drained.

Check if car adaptor is connected appropriately.

Check the disc for fingerprints and clean with a soft cloth, wiping from centre to edge.

Sometimes a small amount of picture distor- tion may appear. This is not a malfunction.

The PAL setting may be in the wrong status. Match your TV’s setting with the player’s setting.

Check audio connections. If using a HiFi amplifier, try another sound source.
