listed below.

service center or dealer.

and on the wall.

(except for KV-B14L1/B21L1).
Dotted lines or stripes
/ This may be caused by local interference
(e.g. cars, neon signs, hair dryers, etc.).

interference.

nearby mountains or buildings. A highly
directional antenna may improve the
picture.
TV cabinet creaks
/ Even if the picture or the sound is normal,
changes in the room temperature
sometimes make the TV cabinet expand or
contract, making a noise. This does not
indicate a malfunction.

Note on the remote commander
• The supplied remote commander is used on several models of
the TV. If you do not find instructions for some controls that
are on the remote commander, that means your TV does not
employ the features of those controls, e.g. TEXT.
Note on the TV system
• The TV SYSTEM button is not used on the KV-B14L1/B21L1
models.
Notes
• When you switch on the TV, you may hear the "boon'' sound
that is caused by the demagnetization of the TV. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
• The picture color may become abnormal if you change the
direction of your TV. To obtain the normal picture color, press
POWER on the TV to switch off the TV for five minutes and
then switch it on again.
• Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.
