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 NOISE.REDUCT on the FEATURES menu to ON. (p. 7).

No picture

Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right system? (p. 6) Is the contrast or the brightness baddly adjusted ? Press and readjust the PICTURE menu. 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.

Picture adjustment

If the picture is not adjusted properly or if you have trouble obtaining a clear picture, select one of the smart

control presets (p. 3), go into the PICTURE menu and modify one of the settings.The setting is stored automatically.The picture is too blue or too red! Adjust the COLOUR TEMP (p. 7).

Peripheral equipment gives a black and white picture

You have not selected the right

socket with the key: S-VHS2(or S-VHS3) instead of EXT2 (or EXT3). To play a video cassette, check that it has been recorded under the same standard (PAL, SECAM, NTSC) which can be replayed by the video recorder.

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).

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.

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 LOCK function is switched on (see p. 7).

If the set receives no signal for 15 mins, it automatically goes into standby mode.

The set consumes energy when it is switched on.To save electricity, we recommend that you switch the TV set off using the ON/OFF key.

Miscellaneous

The menus appear in a foreign language? Select the LANGUAGE option in the INSTALL menu (p. 4).

Still no results?

If your TV set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself: contact your dealer's after-sales service.

Recycling directive

Your TV set uses materials which are reusable or which can be recycled. To minimise the amount of waste in the environment, specialist companies recover used sets for dismantling and collection of reusable materials (consult your dealer).
