When there is something wrong with your TV, you can try turning off the TV and then restart it. You can also Operate
according to the following chart. If the problem still cannot be solved, please contact the professional technicians.
SYMPTOMS POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
No sound or picture.
Check if the power cord is in the AC outlet and if it has electricity.
Check if you have pressed [POWER] button on the TV or [POWER] button on the
remote control.
Check to see if LED light is either red or blue. If illuminated, power to TV is OK.
I have connected an external
source to my TV and I get no
picture and/or sound.
Check for the correct output connection on the external source and for the correct
input connection on the TV.
Make sure you have made the correct selection for the input mode for the incoming
signal.
When I turn on my television,
there is a few second delay
before the picture appears. Is
this normal?
Yes, this is normal. That is the TV searching for previous setting information and
initializing the TV.
Picture is normal, but no sound. Check the volume settings.
Check if Mute mode is set “on”.
Sound but no picture or black
and white picture.
If black and white picture first unplug TV from AC outlet and replug after 60 seconds.
Check Color Setting if picture is black and white.
Sound and picture distorted or
appear wavy.
An electrical appliance may be affecting TV set. Turn off any appliances, if
interference goes away, move appliance farther away from TV.
Insert the power plug of the TV set into another power outlet.
Sound and picture is blurry or
cuts out momentarily.
If using an external antenna, check the direction, position and connection of the
antenna.
Adjust the direction of your antenna or reset or fine tune the channel.
Horizontal/vertical stripe on
picture or picture is shaking. Check if there is interfering source nearby, such as appliance or electric tool.
The plastic cabinet makes a
“clicking” type of sound.
“Click” sound can be caused when the room temperature changes. This change
causes the television cabinet to inflate or contract, which makes the sound. This is
normal and TV is OK.
Black square appears in the
center of my television screen?
The Closed Caption function is set in the text mode. To remove it, access Closed
Caption from the menu screen and change the Mode setting from text to either CC1 or
off .

Other Information
Trouble Shooting
SYMPTOMS POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
On some channels getting
another language or sometimes
no sound at all.
That would indicate that the MTS mode on your unit is set to SAP mode. We suggest
setting the MTS mode to either Stereo or Mono . For further instruction, please see
Audio Adjust or MTS/SAP in your user manual.
SAP is Second Audio Program. It’s a second audio channel that is usually used for a
second language or descriptive audio for the visually impaired.
MTS stands for Multichannel Television Sound, a standard that allows the encoding
of 3 channels of audio within a standard NTSC (analog) video signal to a television.
A television that is able to receive MTS Stereo allows you to watch television with
stereo sound.
Not getting all of my cable
channels on the television or I’m
only getting 13 channels.
Check the cable connection for an incoming signal. Make sure the signal is coming
OK. Best way to confirm signal is to use another TV and/or contact your cable
company.
Reprogram your channels. Press [MENU] button on your TV remote control, change
Input Source setting to “Cable”, then use “Auto Channels Search” to reprogram your
channels.
[CH
V
/ V] don’t work when I
set the Channel to Cable? They
work with the Air setting?
After switching to Cable, please auto program the channels. The TV will “remember” all
the channels then the TV will allow you to surf the channels with [CH
V
/V] buttons.
Remote control does not work.
Confirm that TV still has power and is operational.
Change the batteries in the remote control.
Check if the batteries are correctly installed.
Clean the front of the remote control (LED window).
If using a universal remote, be sure to select the TV mode on the remote.
If the remote still does not work:
• Remove and reinstall the batteries correctly to reset the remote or install new
batteries.
• Press the Power button to turn on the TV. With a universal remote if you have reset
or changed the batteries you will need to reprogram the remote for the other units.
Check if there is obstruction between the remote control and the TV.
TIP: If you have a digital camera / camera phone, you can aim the front of the remote
at camera lenses (at this time, the camera should set on camera mode, not play
mode). Observe the camera screen while pressing a button on the remote control; you
should see flashing light on the screen. If there is no light observed, the remote control
is not working. You need to repair or replace the remote control.
