ENGLISH

• When viewing images from commercially 

available video software products, or 

videos from videotapes which have been 

recorded improperly, the top of the image 

may be distorted. This is due to the 

condition of the video signal. There is 

nothing wrong with the TV.

• Since this TV is designed to make full use 

of the resolution of the original video 
source, the motion may appear unnatural 

when the video source is input with 625p 
progressive-scanning component signals.
If this occurs, change the output setting of 

the connected device to 625i interlace-
scanning component signal output. See 
the instructions that came with the device 

for more information.

„

Poor sound

• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE 

properly? If not, follow the description 

“BASS” or “TREBLE” on page 30.

• When TV channel reception is poor, it can 

be hard to hear stereo or bilingual sound. 
In this case, follow the description 
“STEREO / I • II” on page 30 to hear the 
sound more easily by changing it to a 

mono sound.

• If you cannot hear the normal sound even 

if the picture of the TV channel appears 
normally. Follow the description “EDIT/
MANUAL” on page 35 to use the 

MANUAL function to change the 
SYSTEM setting.

„

If the TV does not respond to the 

remote control

• Have the batteries of the remote control 

worn out? Follow the description “Putting 

the batteries into the remote control” on 
page 9 and replace them with new batteries.

• Have you attempted to use the remote 

control from the sides or rear of the TV or 
from more than seven metres away from the 

TV? Use the remote control in front of your 
TV or from less than seven metres away.

• When you are viewing a teletext 

programme, you cannot operate the 
menus. Press the 

4

 button to 

return to the ordinary TV programme, and 
then try operating the menus.

• If the TV suddenly stops responding, 

press the 

A

 button on the TV and turn off 

the TV. Press the 

A

 button again to turn 

on the TV. If the TV returns to a normal 

state, it is not a failure.

„

Other issues

• If the CHILD LOCK function set to ON, 

you cannot operate the TV with the front 

control buttons of the TV. Set the CHILD 

LOCK function to OFF.

• When the SLEEP TIMER function or 

AUTO SHUTOFF function operates, the 

TV is automatically turned off. If the TV 

suddenly turns off, try to press the 

#

(standby) button to turn on the TV once 

again. If the TV goes back to normal, 

there is no problem.

• When the TV is receiving a wide-screen 

signal (WSS) or a signal from an external 

device affecting the screen size, the 

ZOOM mode automatically changes. 

When you want to resume the previous 

ZOOM mode, press the 

c

 button 

again.

• If you bring magnetised equipment such 

as a speaker near to your TV, the picture 

may be warped or unnatural colours may 

appear at the corners of the screen. In this 

case, keep the equipment away from your 

TV. If speakers cause this to happen, use 

magnetically-shielded speakers instead.

• It takes a short period of time from the 

time an operation such as changing 

channels is performed until an image is 

displayed. This is not a fault. This is the 

time needed for the image to stabilize 

before it can be displayed.

• The TV may make a crackling sound due 

to a sudden change in temperature. The 

picture or sound may be normal. If you 

hear crackling sounds frequently while 

you are viewing the TV, there may be 

other causes. As a precaution, ask your 

service technician to inspect it.

• Touching the screen may cause you to 

feel a slight electric shock due to its static 

electricity. This is unavoidable due to the 

construction of the picture tube. It is not a 

problem with the TV. You can rest 

assured that this static discharge is not 

harmful.
