23.4. Troubleshooting
Switch On and Remote Control
The TV does not switch on
• Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet.
Wait for one minute then reconnect it.
• Make sure that the power cable is securely connected.
Creaking sound at startup or switch off
When you are switching the TV on, off or to standby, you
hear a creaking sound from the TV chassis. The creaking
sound is due to the normal expansion and contraction of
the TV as it cools and warms up. This does not affect
performance.
TV does not respond to the remote control
The TV requires some time to start up. During this time,
the TV does not respond to the remote control or TV
controls. This is normal behaviour.
If the TV continues to be unresponsive to the remote
control, you can check if the remote control is working by
means of a mobile phone camera. Put the phone in
camera mode and point the remote control to the
camera lens. If you press any key on the remote control
and you notice the infra red LED flicker through the
camera, the remote control is working. The TV needs to
be checked.
If you do not notice the flickering, the remote control
might be broken or its batteries are low.
This method of checking the remote control is not
possible with remote controls which are wirelessly paired
with the TV.
The standby light keeps on blinking
Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet. Wait
5 minutes before you reconnect the power cable. If the
blinking reoccurs, contact Philips TV Consumer Care.
