Appendix E: Troubleshooting
TV Reset Comparison Guide
You can resolve many common TV problems using the reset functions described in the following table. See also the troubleshooting suggestions later in this appendix.
IMPORTANT
Before you change sound or picture settings: If picture or sound settings seem wrong for a broadcast
channel (a channel from ANT 1, ANT 2, a cable box, or satellite receiver), first check other channels from the same input before changing settings. If most other channels from the same input seem correct, there is likely a problem with the broadcast rather than with the TV. Use care in this case, as changes you make to fix problems on individual channels also affect all other channels on the same input.
