Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Care and Cleaning
How do I view the picture from
devices such as a: Cable/Satellite
box, game console, Blu-ray or
DVD player?
Press the INPUT button on the remote to select the correct
input source.
Check that the device is turned on and functioning correctly.
Why is there no picture or just a
blue, black or snowy screen being
displayed?
Check if the power cord is plugged in and the TV is turned on
(front red LED light should be on; not blinking)
Press the INPUT button on the remote to select the correct
input source.
Ensure all connections are correct and secure.
When using external video source, such as a Cable/Satellite
box or DVD player, check that the device is on and functioning
correctly.
Press MENU on the TV’s remote control. If the menu is
displayed, then the TV is working; recheck above steps.
Why doesn’t the picture look like
it is in High Definition?
Press the INFO button on the remote to confirm the type of signal
being received (p. 19). HD signal should be 720P, 1080i or 1080p.
Select a High Definition channel from your HD source (Cable,
Satellite or fiber optic service). HD channels sometimes
broadcast non-HD content.
Ensure that your HD source (HD box, Blu-ray player, etc.) is
connected to the TV with an HDMI or Component cable and
set to output an HD video signal.
Why do black bars appear on the
top and bottom and/or sides of
the screen?
Change the format (aspect ratio) of the picture by pressing the
FORMAT button on the remote control. (p. 20)
Check the aspect settings on your external video source, such
as Cable/Satellite box, DVD/Blu-ray Disc player, etc.
Note: Some content, such as film-based movies, are
available in extra-wide format. Top and bottom bars are
unavoidable.
Why is the picture snowy when
“ANT/Cable in” is selected?
When using a cable service (without a box), check that all
connections are secure.
When using a cable or satellite box, change the connection
(wiring) to Composite, Component or HDMI. (p. 12)
If you’re using an antenna, then check that connections are
secure. Change the position or direction of the antenna and
check the “Signal meter”. (p. 47)
Why is the picture chaotic and/
or torn and/or with a buzz in the
speakers?
Check if electrical products such as kitchen appliances,
fluorescent lights or light dimmers are nearby. They may
interfere with the TV’s picture.
Try viewing a picture from another device, such as a DVD player
or a game console, to narrow down the source of the problem.
Why is there a black box on the
screen?
Change settings of Closed Caption (CC). (p. 19, 52)
Why is the screen blank and the
power indicator blinking?
The TV has gone into shutdown mode to protect itself. Try
unplugging it for a few minutes and connecting it again. If
there was a temporary power surge on the AC line it may now
be OK. If the blinking returns, call 1-877-95VIERA (U.S.A.) or
1-866-330-0014 (Canada).
Why do some small spots on the
screen remain bright or dark?
The Plasma panel is made up of a few million pixels and
is produced with advanced technology through an intricate
process. Sometimes a few pixels may be bright or dark. These
pixels do not indicate a defective panel and will have no impact
on the performance of the TV.
