Tips

Poor reception

 

 

 

The proximity of mountains or high buildings may be responsible for ghost

 

 

 

 

pictures, echoing or shadows. In this case, try manually adjusting your

 

 

 

 

picture : see Fine Tuning (p.6) or modify the orientation of the outside

 

 

 

 

aerial.

 

 

 

 

Does your antenna enable you to receive broadcasts in this frequency range

 

 

 

 

(UHF or VHF band) ?

 

 

 

 

In the event of difficult reception (snowy picture) switch the NR on the

 

 

 

 

Picture menu to ON (p. 7).

 

 

 

 

 

No picture

 

 

 

Have you connected the aerial socket properly ?

 

 

 

 

Have you chosen the right system ? (p. 6). Poorly connected euroconnector

 

 

 

 

cables or aerial sockets are often the cause of picture or sound problems

 

 

 

 

(sometimes the connectors can become half disconnected if the TV set is

 

 

 

 

moved or turned). Check all connections.

 

 

 

 

 

Peripheral

 

 

 

To play a video cassette, check that it has been recorded under the same

 

 

 

equipment gives a

 

 

 

standard (PAL, SECAM, NTSC) which can be replayed by the video

black and white

 

 

 

recorder.

Remote control

 

 

 

The TV set does not react to the remote control ; the indicator on the set

 

 

 

 

no longer flashes when you use the remote control ? Replace the batteries.

 

 

 

 

 

No sound

 

 

 

If on certain channels you receive a picture but no sound, this means that

 

 

 

 

you do not have the correct TV system. Modify the System setting (p. 6).

 

 

 

 

 

Teletext

 

 

 

Are certain characters not displayed correctly ? Check that the Country

 

 

 

 

setting has been positioned correctly (p.5).

 

 

 

 

 

Standby

 

 

 

When you switch the TV set on it remains in standby mode and the

 

 

 

 

indication Locked is displayed when you use the keys on the TV set ?

 

 

 

 

The Child Lock function is switched On (p. 8).

 

 

 

 

If the set receives no signal for 10 mins, it automatically goes into standby

 

 

 

 

mode.

 

 

 

 

In standby mode, your TV consumes less than 5W depending on model. In order

 

 

 

 

to be more environmentally friendly, please use the on/off (power) switch to turn

 

 

 

 

the set off completely.

 

 

 

 

 

Still no results ?

 

 

 

If your TV set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself : contact

 

 

 

 

 

your dealer's after-sales service.

 

 

 

 

 

Cleaning the set

 

 

 

Only use a clean, soft and lint-free cloth to clean the screen and the casing

 

 

 

 

of your set. Do not use alcohol-based or solvent-based products.
