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 tuning" (p.7) or modify the orientation of the outside aerial. Does your
antenna enable you to receive broadcasts in this frequency range (UHF or VHF
band)?
Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right
system? (p. 7). 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.
To play a video cassette, check that it has been recorded under the same
standard (PAL, SECAM, NTSC) which can be replayed by the video recorder.
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. 7).
The amplifier connected to the TV does not deliver any sound? Check that you
have not confused the audio output with the audio input.
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 batteries.
When you switch the TV set on it remains in standby mode and the indication
LOCKED is displayed when you use the keys on the TV set? The CHILD LOCK
function is switched on (p. 9).
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.
The materials used in your set are either reusable or can be recycled.
To minimise environmental waste, specialist companies collect used appliances
and dismantle them after retrieving any materials that can be used again
(ask your dealer for further details).
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.
