Digital cable box does not work

If you are connecting a VCR and digital cable box using a splitter, as described on

 

page 17, you must use a special bi-directional splitter that is designed to work

 

with your digital cable box. Contact your cable provider for details.

TV cabinet creaks

When the TV is in use, there is a natural rise in temperature, causing the cabinet to

 

expand or contract and may be accompanied by a slight creaking noise. This is not

 

a malfunction.

 

 

A slight creaking noise occurs

Advanced Iris applies a mechanical iris system. When Advanced Iris is set, a

from the bottom part of the TV

natural creaking noise occurs due to the basic structure of the optical unit. The

 

creaking sound is an inherent nature of this system and is not a defect.

 

 

The cooling fan is loud

If the TV is used at high altitudes and Cooling Mode is set to High, the cooling

 

fan runs faster and its sound becomes louder. If the TV is not used at high

 

altitudes, set Cooling Mode to Normal (see page 47).
