If you’ve been through the Troubleshooting section and nothing has fixed your problem,
try rebooting your TV. Note that after a reboot you may need to run your TV through the
setup process again. To do a reboot, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, power
strip, etc. Keep your TV unplugged for about 5 minutes. Then plug the TV back in, turn on
the TV, and see if the problem is fixed. If the problem remains, then please visit www.rca.
