Issues

Solutions and Explanations

Aerial (Air/Cable) Connection

The TV is not receiving all channels.

 Make sure the Aerial cable is connected securely.

 Please try Setup (Initial setup) to add available channels to the channel list. Go to

and wait for all available channels to be stored.

 Verify the Aerial is positioned correctly.

The picture is distorted: macro block error small

 Compression of video contents may cause picture distortion, especially on fast moving pictures such as sports and

block, dots, pixelization

action movies.

 A low signal can cause picture distortion. This is not a TV issue.

Others

The picture will not display in full screen.

 HD channels will have black bars on either side of the screen when displaying up scaled SD (4:3) contents.

 Black bars on the top and bottom will appear during movies that have aspect ratios different from your TV.

 Adjust the picture size options on your external device or TV to full screen.

Plasma TV is making humming noise.

 Plasma TVs typically make a soft humming sound. This is normal. It's caused by the electrical charges that are used to

create the images on the screen.

 If the humming sound is loud, you may have set the brightness on the TV too high. Try setting the brightness lower.

 You can also have loud humming if the back of your Plasma TV is too close to a wall or other hard surface. Also try

rerouting your connection cables.

 Improper installation of wall mount can create excessive noise.

Image Retention (Burn In) Issue.

 To minimize the possibility of screen burn, this unit is equipped with Pixel Shift screen burn reduction technology. Pixel

Shift lets you set the picture so it moves slightly up and down (Vertical Line) and side to side (Horizontal Dot). The

regular, slight movement of the picture reduces screen burn in.

The remote control does not work.

 Replace the remote control batteries with the poles (+/–) in the right direction.

 Clean the sensor's transmission window on the remote.
