TV and Audio Problems

Poor TV signal reception

No TV picture

No sound

This is characteristic of liquid crystal and is not caused by a malfunction or deterioration of the liquid crystal. The afterimage will disappear after a period of time.

The remaining dots are normal characteristic of the liquid crystal used in today’s technology.

The proximity of mountains or high buildings may be responsible for ghost pictures, echoing or shadows. In this case, try manually adjusting your pictures: see 'fine tuning' or adjust the direction of the outside aerial.

Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right system? Poorly connected aerial sockets are often the cause of picture or sound problems (sometimes the connectors can become half disconnected if the Monitor set is moved or turned). Check all connections.

Ensure that the audio cables are firmly connected to both the audio input connectors on your Monitor and audio output connectors on your PC or Video player.

If on certain TV channels you receive a picture but no sound, this means that you do not have the correct TV system. Modify the SYSTEM setting.
