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 equipment gives a black and white picture

You have not selected the right socket with the N key: S-VHS2 (S-VHS3) instead of EXT2 (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).

The surround speakers are producing no sound or distorted sound ? Check that the active speaker and the cordless setting are switched to the same

channel (p.23). Check also that the active speaker indicator lights in green (see step 3 page 22) and that the SURROUND menu is set to ON (p.23).

If the digital output does not work, check that it has been activated in the OSD menu (see p. 18).

Does the DVD player no longer work? Check that the disk does not have any fingerprints on it. Clean it with a soft cloth, wiping from the centre to the edge.

The remote control no longer works. Check that the mode selector on the side of the remote control is set to TV.

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 CHILD LOCK function is switched on (p. 8). If the set receives no signal for 15 mins, it automatically goes into standby mode.

To save power, your set is fitted with components that give it a very low power consumption when in standby mode (less than 3 W).

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.

Still no results?

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

°The materials used in your set are either reusable or can be recycled.

To minimise environmental waste, specialist companies collect used appliances and dismantle them after retrieving any materials that can be used again (ask your dealer for further details).
