TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Sometimes a performance problem can be easily solved by checking seemingly apparent but often over-
looked possibilities. Before arranging for service, check these items. It could save your time and money.

QUICK SERVICE CHECK LIST

PROBLEM

POSSIBLE REMEDY

Try a new channel, if OK, then possible station trouble.

Is TV plugged in?
Power at outlet?

Is TV’s power on?

Is antenna or cable connected to terminal on the back of the set?

If outside antenna is being used, check for broken wire or loose connection.

Check for local interference.

Turn off the TV and then turn it on after about a minute.

Adjust COLOR control.

Adjust CONTRAST & BRIGHT control.

Check batteries in remote control.

Move the TV away from the nearby appliances which generate a magnetic field.

Closed Caption Problem

Possible Remedy

Misspelled captions are shown.

Text is not shown in its entirety 
or there is a delay of what is being said.

Captions are scrambled with white boxes
on the TV screen.

No captions are displayed in a program
which must contain closed caption.

No captions are displayed when playing a
prerecorded videotape with closed caption.

The TV screen shows a black box.

Spelling errors may pass through uncorrected by the closed caption-
ing production company in a live broadcast.

Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialogue
are common for live broadcasts. Most captioning production compa-
nies can display a dialogue to a maximum of 220 words per minute.
If a dialogue exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure that
the captions remain up-to-date with the current TV screen dialogue.

Interference caused by building, power lines, thunderstorms, etc.
may cause scrambled or incomplete captions to appear.

Broadcasters may  a time compression process to the actual pro-
gram so additional advertising time can be given. In this case, cap-
tions will be lost since the decoder cannot read the compressed
information. 

The videotape may be either an illegal copy or the tape duplicating
company may accidentally have left out the captioning signals dur-
ing the copying process.

You are in TEXT mode. Select CAPTION [C1], [C2] or [OFF].

CABINET CLEANING

Wipe the front panel and other exterior sur-
faces of the TV with a soft cloth immersed
in lukewarm water and wrung dry.

Never use a solvent or alcohol. Do not spray
insecticide liquid near the TV. Such chemi-
cals may cause damage and discoloration to
the exposed surfaces.

PICTURE TUBE  CLEANING

Wipe the picture tube of the TV with a soft
cloth. Before cleaning the picture tube, discon-
nect the power cord.
