Troubleshooting
•Has COLOUR or BRIGHT been controlled properly? Follow the description “BRIGHT” or “COLOUR” on page 24 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 were coloured. It is a phenomenon 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.
•When 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, and not because of malfunction.
•Since this TV is designed to make full use of the resolution of the original video source, the motion may appear unnatural when the video source is input with 625p
Poor sound
•Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE properly? If not, follow the description “BASS” or “TREBLE” on page 28 to try to adjust them properly.
•When the TV channel reception is poor, it can be hard to hear the stereo or bilingual sound. In this case, follow the description “STEREO / I • II” on page 28 to hear the sound more easily by changing it to a mono sound.

•Have you attempted to use the remote control at the sides or rear of the TV or at a location more than seven meters apart from the TV location? Operate the remote control in the front of your TV or a location less than seven meters from your TV to try to solve the problem.
•When you are viewing a teletext programme, you cannot operate the menus. Press the bbutton to return the teletext programme to the ordinary TV programme to try operating the menus.
•If the TV operation becomes disabled suddenly, press the Main power button on the TV and turn off the main power. Try to press the Main power button again to turn on the main power. If the TV returns to a normal state, it is not a failure.
Other concerns
•When the SLEEP TIMER function operates, the TV is automatically turned off. If the TV is turned off suddenly, try to press the #(Standby) button to turn on the TV once again. At this time, if the TV resumes a normal state, there is no problem.
•When a WSS signal is included in the broadcast signal or the signal from an external device, or when the TV is receiving a control signal from an external device, the ZOOM mode will change automatically. When you want to return to the previous ZOOM mode, press the cbutton to choose the ZOOM mode again.
•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 causes such phenomena, use the
