Tips
Poor reception 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.6) or modify the orientation of the outside aerial. Does your antenna enable you to receive broadcasts in this frequency range (UHF or VHF band)? In the event of difficult reception (snowy picture) switch the NR on the PICTURE menu to ON. (p. 7). No picture Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right system? (p. 6). 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. Peripheral equipment gives a black and white picture You have not selected the right socket with the N key: S-VHS2 (S-VHS3) instead of EXT2 (EXT3).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. The remote control no longer works. Check that the mode selector on the side of the remote control is set to TV. If the digital output does not work, check that it has been activated in the OSD menu (see p. 16). Does the DVD player no longer work? Check that the disk does not have any fingerprints on it. Clean it with a soft cloth, wiping from the centre to the edge. No sound 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. 6). Remote control 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. Standby 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. 8). 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 3 W). Cleaning the set 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. Still no results? If your TV set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself: contact your dealer's aftersales service.

Glossary
RGB Signals: These are 3 Red, Green and Blue video signals which directly drive the red, green and blue emitters in the cathode ray tube. Using these signals provides better picture quality. S-VHS Signals: These are 2 separate Y/C video signals from the S-VHS and Hi-8 recording standards. The luminance signals Y (black and white) and chrominance signals C (colour) are recorded separately on the tape.This provides better picture quality than with standard video (VHS and 8 mm) where the Y/C signals are combined to provide only one video signal. NICAM sound: Process by which digital sound can be transmitted. System: Television pictures are not broadcast in the same way in all countries.There are different standards: BG, DK, I, and L L�.The SYSTEM setting (p. 6) is used to select these different standards. This is not to be confused with PAL or SECAM colour coding. Pal is used in the majority of European countries, Secam in France, the Russia and the majority of African countries. The United States and Japan use a different system called NTSC.The inputs EXT1 and EXT2 are used to read NTSC coded recordings. 16:9: Refers to the ration between the length and height of the screen. Wide screen televisions have a ration of 16/9, conventional screen TV sets have a ration of 4/3.
