Maintaining

• Do not use your TV in areas that are too hot or too 

cold, because the cabinet may warp or the screen 
may malfunction. Your TV works best in 
temperatures that are comfortable to you.

• Storage temperatures are 32° to 122°F (0° to 50°C).
• Working temperatures are 41° to 104°F (5° to 

40°C).

• Do not place your TV in direct sunlight or near a 

heat source.

Cleaning the TV cabinet

Clean the cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. If the 
cabinet is especially dirty, moisten a soft, lint-free 
cloth in a weak detergent solution, squeeze the 
excess moisture from the cloth, then wipe the 
screen or cabinet with the cloth. Use a clean cloth to 
dry the screen or cabinet.

Cleaning the TV screen

Clean the screen with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Troubleshooting

Warning

Do not try to repair your TV yourself. Refer all service 
to a qualified service technician.

Problem

Solution

No power

Make sure that the power cord is 
correctly connected to your TV and 
a power outlet.

Unplug the power cord, wait 60 
seconds, then plug the cord back in 
and turn on your TV.

No picture

Make sure that 

Audio Only

 option 

is set to 

Off

. For more information, 

see “Playing TV audio only” on 
page 19.

Make sure that the video cables are 
connected securely to the back of 
your TV.

Adjust the contrast and brightness.

Make sure that the correct video 
mode is selected.

Make sure that the incoming signal 
is compatible.

Make sure the antenna is 
connected correctly.

Check the closed caption settings. 
Some TEXT modes can block the 
screen.

Good picture but no sound

 Increase the volume.

Make sure that the sound is not 
muted.

Make sure that the correct audio 
mode is selected.

Good sound but poor color

 Adjust the contrast, color, and 
brightness settings.

Poor picture

Make sure that the room is not too 
bright. Light reflecting off the 
screen can make the picture 
difficult to see.

If an S-VHS camera or a camcorder 
is connected while another 
connected device is turned on, the 
picture may be poor. Turn off one or 
more devices.

Horizontal dotted line

Your TV may be too close to another 
electrical device, such as a hair 
dryer or neon light. Turn off the 
device or move your TV.

“Ghost” or double image

This may be caused by obstructions 
to the antenna, such as high-rise 
buildings or hills. Use of a highly 
directional antenna may improve 
the picture quality.

Remote control does not work

Press TV (not the color button)

Replace the batteries. Make sure 
that the + and – symbols on the 
batteries align with the + and – 
symbols in the battery 
compartment.

Clean the remote sensor on the 
front of your TV.

Bright or fluorescent lighting may 
interfere with the remote control 
signal. Turn off the light or move 
your TV.

Snowy picture or noise

Make sure that the A/V and 
antenna cables are connected 
correctly and securely.

VGA picture is not stable or 
synchronized 

Make sure that you have selected 
the correct VGA mode on your 
computer.

No output from one of the speakers

Adjust the balance in the 

Audio

 

menu.

Control buttons do not work

Make sure that the 

Button Lock 

option is set to Off. For more 
information, see “Locking control 
buttons
” on page 26.

Unplug the power cord, wait a few 
seconds, then plug the cord back in 
and turn on your TV.

After images appear

Do not display a still image, such as 
a logo, game, or computer image, 
for an extended period of time. This 
can cause a permanent after-image 
to be burned into the screen. This 
type of damage is not covered by 
your warranty.

Picture has a few bright or dark dots

A few bright or dark dots on an LCD 
screen is normal. It does not affect 
the operation of this TV.
