TROUBLESHOOTING
Troubles sometimes are caused by simple "faults" that you can
correct without the help of a service technician. If you experience
any difficulty with your TV, check a few basic remedies before
calling your service technician.
TV WILL NOT TURN ON OR CONTROLS DON'T WORK
• Check to make sure it is plugged in.
• Check the wall receptacle (or extension cord) to make sure it is
"live" by plugging in something else.
• Try unplugging set for two minutes, plugging it back in, and
then turning it on again.
PROBLEMS WITH REMOTE
• Maybe something is between the remote and the remote sensor.
• Maybe the remote is not aimed directly at the TV's remote sensor.
• Maybe remote batteries are weak, dead or installed incorrectly.
Try replacing batteries correctly.
• Remove batteries and hold down one or more buttons for
several seconds. Install the batteries and try remote.
TURNS ON OR OFF WHILE PLAYING
• Schedule function may have been activated.
• Electronic protection circuit may have been activated because of
a power surge. Wait 30 seconds and then turn on again. If this
happens frequently, the voltage in your house may be
abnormally high.
SCHEDULE POES NOT TURN OFF THE TV AT THE SET TIME
• Check schedule on/off function (it must be set to On).
• Check to make sure clock is set to the correct time.
BLANK SCREEN OR BLACK BOX APPEARS ON THE SCREEN
• Try another channel.
• Press RESET, in case the picture controls are set too low.
• Captioning may be turned on. Check the Closed-Caption Display
control panel in the Channel menu.
NO SOUND, PICTURE OKAY
• Maybe sound is muted. Try pressing volume up button to
restore sound.
