Troubleshooting
Other concerns
•When the AUTO SHUTOFF function operates, the TV is automatically turned off.
If the TV is turned off suddenly, try to press the # button to turn on the TV once again. At this time, if the TV resumes a normal state, there is no problem.
•If you bring a magnetized 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 speaker causes such phenomena, use the magnetic- shielded speaker 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 complete 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, other causes may be assumed.
For precautionary purposes, request your service technician to inspect it.
•Touching the screen may cause you feel a slight electric shock due to its static electricity.
It is an unavoidable phenomenon 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 harmful influence over the human body.
