Poor reception

No sound

Remote control

Cleaning the set

Still no results?

The proximity of mountains or high buildings may be responsible for ghost
pictures, echoing or shadows. In this case, try manually adjusting your picture:
see Fine Tune (p. 6) or modify the orientation of the outside aerial. If you are
using an indoor aerial, reception may be difficult in certain conditions. You can
improve reception by rotating the aerial. If the reception remains poor, you will
need to use an external aerial
Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right system? (p. 6).
Poorly connected euroconnector cables or aerial sockets are often the cause of picture or
sound problems (sometimes the connectors can become half disconnected if the TV set is
moved or turned). Check all connections.
If on certain channels you receive a picture but no sound, this means that you do not have
the correct TV system. Modify the 

System

setting (p. 6). 

The amplifier connected to the TV does not deliver any sound? Check that you
have not confused the audio output with the audio input.
Check that you have configured the computer on a compatible display resolution
(see p. 12).
The TV set does not react to the remote control; the indicator on the set no
longer flashes when you use the remote control? Replace the battery.
If the set receives no signal for 15 mins, it automatically goes into standby mode. 
To save power, your set is fitted with components that give it a very low power
consumption when in standby mode (less than 1 W).
Only use a clean, soft and lint-free cloth to clean the screen and the casing of your
set. Do not use alcohol-based or solvent-based products.
Disconnect the mains plug of the TV for 30 seconds then reconnect it.
If your TV set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself: contact your
dealer's after-sales service.
