Answer

not work.
What should I do?

Re-insert the Batteries with their Polarities (+/–) as indicated.

Check if there is an obstacle between the infrared sensor window and the Remote Control.

Unit. Move the infrared-equipped device away from this Unit, change the angle of the Device's infrared sensor or Turn
Off the infrared communication function.

How come the Initial Setup
appears every time I Turn
On this Unit?

Connect the RF Coaxial Cable directly to this Unit and run the Initial Setup.

Make sure to complete the Initial Setup before the Unit goes into Standby mode.

Why can I not watch some
RF signal TV Programs?

unavailable channels are broadcast.

Make sure Autoprogram has been completed. L p. 24

The selected channel may not be broadcasting.

The Unit requires some kind of Antenna Input. An indoor Antenna (Digital or VHF / UHF), an External Antenna (Digital
or VHF / UHF) or an RF Coaxial Cable from your wall Cable / Satellite Set-top Box needs to be plugged into the Unit.

How come there is no
image from the Connected
External Devices?

from an External Device. L p. 18

Check the Antenna, Cable or other Input Connection to the Unit.

When using the Component Video Connection check that the Green (Y), Blue (Pb/Cb) and Red (Pr/Cr) connectors
are connected to their corresponding colored jacks on the Unit.

When I enter a channel
number, why does it change
Automatically?

Many Digital channels have alternate channel numbers. The Unit changes the numbers Automatically to the ones signifying
the Broadcasting Station's channel number. These basic numbers used for the previous Analog Broadcasts. (e.g., Input
Digital ch# 30 Automatically changes to Digital ch# 8.1)

Why are captions not
displayed Entirely?
Or why are captions
delayed behind the dialog?

Closed Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialog are common for Live broadcasts. Most captioning
production companies can display a dialog to maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialog exceeds that rate, selective
editing is used to insure that the Closed Captions remain up-to date with the current TV screen dialog.

My PIN code no longer
works, how can I change the
Child Lock setting?

If a Power failure occurs for longer than 10 seconds the child lock setting is retained, but the PIN code is reset to the
