Tips

Glossary

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.5) 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 

Feature

s

menu

to 

ON

. (p. 6).

No picture

If the television does not switch on, please
press the standby key 

b

(located on the

remote control) twice.
Have you connected the aerial socket properly? 
Have you chosen the right system? (p. 5).
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.

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. 5).

Teletext

Are certain characters not displayed
correctly? Check that the 

Country

setting

has been positioned correctly (p.5).

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. 7).

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).

Still no results?

If your TV set breaks down, never attempt to
repair it yourself: contact your dealer's after-
sales service.

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.

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 most countries in
Europe, Secam in France, Russia and most 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.
