Troubleshooting
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully 
before you ask to have the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, 
if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may 
think there is a problem with the TV itself.
Important:
• This troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose causes are not easy to decide. If you 
have a question when you are operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully, 
not this troubleshooting guide.
• If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains 
plug and ask for your TV to be repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to 
remove the rear cover of the TV.
„If you cannot turn on the TV
• Is the mains plug connected to the mains 
outlet?
• Make sure you set the PIP/TV/DVD 
switch to the TV position. You cannot 
turn the TV on when the PIP/TV/DVD 
switch is set to the DVD position.
„If you cannot turn off the TV
• Make sure you set the PIP/TV/DVD 
switch to the TV position. You cannot 
turn the TV off when the PIP/TV/DVD 
switch is set to the DVD position.
„No picture or no sound
• Have you chosen a TV channel with very 
poor reception? If so, the BLUE BACK 
function will be activated: the entire 
screen becomes blue, and the sound is 
muted. If you still want to view the TV 
channel, follow the description “BLUE 
BACK” on page 33 to change the BLUE 
BACK function setting to OFF.
• If the SYSTEM setting for a TV channel 
is incorrect, it may prevent the sound 
from being issued. Follow the description 
“EDIT/MANUAL” on page 35 to use the 
MANUAL function to try to change the 
SYSTEM setting.
„Poor picture
• If noise (snow) totally blocks out the 
picture, there may be a problem with the 
aerial or aerial cable. Check the following 
to try to solve the problem:– Have the TV and aerial been connected 
properly?
– Has the aerial cable been damaged?
– Is the aerial pointing in the right 
direction?
– Is the aerial itself faulty?
• If the TV or aerial suffers interference 
from other equipment, stripes or noise 
may appear in the picture. Move any 
equipment such as an amplifier, personal 
computer, or a hair drier, that can cause 
interference away from your TV. Or try 
moving the TV. If the aerial suffers 
interference from a radio tower or high-
voltage wire, please contact your local 
dealer.
• If the TV suffers interference from signals 
reflecting from mountains or buildings, 
double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try 
to change the aerial’s direction or replace 
it with one with better directionality.
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings 
correct? Follow the description 
“COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 27 to try 
to solve the trouble.
• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings 
been adjusted properly? Follow the 
description “BRIGHT” and “COLOUR” 
on page 25 to try to adjust them properly.
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended 
because it may not record correctly.
