Tips

Care of the screen
Clean the TV with a slightly damp soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive solvent as it can damage
the TV screen.
Poor Picture
Have you selected the correct TV system?
Is your TV or house aerial located too close
to loudspeakers, non-earthed audio
equipment or neon lights, etc.?
Mountains or high buildings can cause double
pictures or ghost images. Sometimes you can
improve the picture quality by changing the
direction of the aerial.
Is the picture or teletext unrecognisable?
Check if you have entered the correct
frequency. See Installation, p. 5.
Are brightness and contrast out of
adjustment? Select Factory settings in the
Setup menu, p. 7.
Sometimes poor picture quality is possible
when having activated an S-VHS camera or
camcorder connected to the right side of
your TV and another peripheral is connected
to or at the same time. In this
EXT1 EXT2
case switch off one of the other peripherals.
No picture
Is the aerial connected properly? Are the
plugs tightly connected in the aerial socket?
Is the aerial cable in good condition and does
it have suitable plugs? Are the connection
facilities to a possible second TV in good
