7.Self Diagnosis Function

If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this self diagram function 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:

zThis self diagram function 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 self diagram function guide.

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

If you cannot turn on the TV:

zAre the AC plug on the power cordfrom the TV is connected to AC outlet?

Poor picture:

zIf noise totally blocks out the picture , there may be a problem with the aerial or the 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?

zIf the TV or aerial suffers interface 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 ratio tower or high-voltage wire, please contact your local dealer.

zIf 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.

zHave the COLOR and BRIGHT settings been adjusted properly?

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

zWhen viewing images from commercially available video software products, or videos from videotapes which have been recorded improperly, the top of the image may be distorted. This is due to the condition of the video signal. There is nothing wrong with the TV.

Poor sound:

zHave you adjusted BASS or TREBLE properly?

If the TV does not respond to the remote control:

zHave the batteries of the remote control worn out?

zHave you attempted to use the remote control from the sides or rear of the TVor from more than seven metersaway from the TV? Use the remote control in the front of your TV or from less than seven meters away.

zIf the TV suddenly stops responding, disconnect the power cord of the TV from the AC outlet. Connect them to the AC outlet again to turn on the TV. If the TV returns to a normal state, it is not a failure.
