Troubleshooting

If you bring a magnetised device such as a speaker near to your TV, a picture may be warped or unnatural colours appear at the corners of the screen. In this case, keep the device apart from your TV. If the speakers cause this to happen, use magnetic-shielded speakers instead.

A picture may be tilted due to the influence of the earth’s magnetism. In this case, use the “PICTURE TILT” on page 33 to correct the tilt.

It takes a short period of time from the time an operation such as changing channels is performed until an image is displayed. This is not a malfunction. This is the time required for the image to stabilize before it can be displayed.

The TV may emit a crackling sound due to a sudden change in temperature. It does not matter if a picture or sound does not show any abnormality. If you hear crackling sounds frequently while you are viewing the TV, there may be other causes. As a precaution, ask your service technician to inspect it.

Touching the screen may cause you feel a slight electric shock due to its static electricity. It is unavoidable due to the construction of the picture tube. It is not a problem with the TV. You can rest assured that this static discharge does not have a harmful effect.

When a menu is displayed on the screen, the ZOOM mode may be automatically changed to the FULL mode. This is not a malfunction. When the menu disappears, the ZOOM mode will return to the previously set ZOOM mode.
