Troubleshooting

If you experience any difficulty with your TV, check these basic
remedies before calling your service technician.

TV will not turn on or controls don’t work

•  Check to make sure it is plugged in.

•  Check the wall receptacle (or extension cord) to make sure

it is “live” by plugging in something else.

•  Try unplugging set for one minute, plugging it back in,

and then turning it on again.

•  Make sure the Front Panel Lock feature is not set.

•  Something might be wrong with your remote control. Press

the POWER button on the front of the TV. If the TV turns
on, check the remote control.

Problems with remote

•  Maybe something is between the remote and the remote

sensor.

•  Maybe the remote is not aimed directly at the TV's remote

sensor.

•  Maybe batteries in remote are weak, dead or installed

incorrectly.  Try replacing batteries.

Turns on or off while playing

•  Electronic protection circuit may have been activated

because of a power surge. Wait 30 seconds and then turn
on again. If this happens frequently, the voltage in your
house may be abnormally high.

•  Maybe the Sleep or Wake-up Timer is activated.

Blank screen or black box appears on the screen

•  Try another channel.

•  Press PRESETS, in case the picture controls are set too low.

•  Closed Captions may be turned on. Check the Closed-

Caption Display control panel in the 

Screen

 menu.

Can’t select a certain channel

•  Channel may be blocked or not approved through

Parental Controls.

No sound, picture okay

•  Maybe sound is muted. Try pressing volume up button

to restore sound.

No picture, no sound, but power is on

•  Maybe cable/air function is in wrong position. Try

another channel.

•  Maybe a vacant channel is tuned. Try another channel.

Sound okay, picture poor

•  Check antenna connections.

•  Try adjusting sharpness function to improve weak

signals.

Parental Controls won’t let me watch a program even though it’s
not rated as violent

• Maybe you have blocked a movie with a rating of “Not

Rated” or an “unrated” TV program. Go to page 15 for
more instructions.
