Care of the screen
Clean the TV with a slightly damp soft
cloth. Do not use abrasive solvent as it
can damage the TV screen.
Poor Picture
• Have you selected the correct TV
system?
• Is your TV or house aerial located too
close to loudspeakers, non-earthed
audio equipment or neon lights, etc.?
• Mountains or high buildings can cause
double pictures or ghost images.
Sometimes you can improve the picture
quality by changing the direction of the
aerial.
• Is the picture or teletext
unrecognisable?
Check if you have entered the correct
frequency. See Installation, p. 5.
• Are brightness and contrast out of
adjustment? Select Factory settings in
the Setup menu, p. 7.
• Sometimes poor picture quality is
possible when having activated an S-VHS
camera or camcorder connected to the
right side of your TV and another
peripheral is connected to
EXT1 or
EXT2 at the same time. In this case
switch off one of the other peripherals.
No picture
• Is the aerial connected properly?
• Are the plugs tightly connected in the
aerial socket?
• Is the aerial cable in good condition and
does it have suitable plugs?
• Are the connection facilities to a possible
second TV in good condition? If in doubt,
consult your dealer.
No sound
• No sound on any channel? Check the
volume isn’t at minimum.
• Is the sound interrupted with the mute
key
¬?
Remote control
If your TV no longer responds to the
remote control, the batteries may be
dead.
You can still use the
M key and the
-/+ keys at the top of your TV.
Menu
Have you selected the wrong menu? Press
the
MENU key again to exit from the
menu.
No solution
Switch your TV off and then on again
once.
Never attempt to repair a defective
TV yourself.
Check with your dealer or call a TV
technician.
