Problems Solutions
SWITCHING A
CHANNEL OR
SOURCE
CHANGES THE
VOLUME Different channels and inputs will sometimes have this effect
because the channel signal’s own volume is already loud.
There is no way remove this completely. The TV has an
AUTO VOLUME LEVEL function that can combat this type of
effect. Please make sure that function is turned on.
THERE IS
NOISE OR
TRASH PIXELS
ON THE
SCREEN When your LCD HDTV’s resolution is higher than the digital
channel’s broadcast resolution, the signal is up-converted to
match your TV’s resolution. Up-converting can cause this
type of effect. Please use the noise reduction subfunctions on
this TV to minimize this effect.
TIPS FOR HIGH
DEFINITION
USERS The X42 LCD HDTV is an ideal platform for viewing High
Definition Content. The best image quality can be achieved
by HDMI, YPbPr (Component), then VGA. However, due to
variances in broadcast practices, it is possible some image
distortions can occur.
TIPS FOR
LETTERBOX
CONTENT
USERS Letterboxed (Widescreen) versions of DVD movies are most
commonly formatted for standard 4:3 TVs. The X42 LCD
HDTV has the capability of expanding this content so the
entire screen is filled at the expense of the image proportion.
To use this function press the aspect button on the remote
control and cycle among the available options.
HDMI VIDEO IS
FINE BUT THE
SOUND IS PURE
STATIC The TV does not decode Bitstream audio information. Double
check your DVD player or cable/satellite box to make sure
that the audio is setup for PCM.
HDMI VIDEO
FLASHES ON
AND OFF Your DVD player or cable/satellite set-top box is not
handshaking correctly with the TV. Please try unplugging the
power of your DVD player or cable/satellite set-top box, then
turning it back on. If this does not work, you’ll need to contact
your cable or satellite company for more help.
PIP DOES NOT
GIVE ME 2
CHANNELS AT
THE SAME TIME This TV does not have 2 TV tuners, therefore will not give you
2 channels at the same time. If you really need 2 channels at
the same time, you can use the antenna for the TV tuner, then
use a cable/satellite set-top box connected to another source
of the TV, then use the cable remote and the TV remote to
see both channels.
TV TURNS
ITSELF OFF
AFTER 15
MINUTES The TV features a power saving mode which will automatically
turn off the TV, if there’s no signal provided for more than 15
minutes.
