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 32 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 34 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 26 to try 
to solve the trouble.
• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings 
been adjusted properly? Follow the 
description “BRIGHT” and “COLOUR” 
on page 24 to try to adjust them properly.
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended 
because it may not record correctly.
• 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.

							Troubleshooting

ENGLISH
LT-Z37DX5 / LCT1961-001A / English
• 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 
progressive-scanning component signals.
If this occurs, change the output setting of 
the connected device to 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 28.
• 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 28 to hear the 
sound more easily by changing it to a 
mono sound.
„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 7 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, 
disconnect the power cord of the TV from 
the AC outlet. Connect them to the AC 
outlet again to turn on the TV. If the TV 
returns to a normal state, it is not a failure.
• When a media card is inserted into the 
TV, remove the card first. Then unplug 
TV, several minutes later plug it in again.
„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.
• 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 stabilise 
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.
• The top of the TV and the screen may 
become hot during use but this has no 
affect on the performance of the TV. 
Make sure that the ventilation holes are 
not blocked.
• When the picture is unstable, the screen 
may become white for a moment. This 
happens when the signal which drives the 
liquid crystal is missing. This is not a 
fault.
• When a still image has been displayed for 
a long period, a faint residual image may 
remain on the screen for a short time after 
the power has been turned off or when 
another image is displayed. This is not a 
fault and the image will eventually 
disappear.
