TV channel (SECAM-L system) from a French station:

Set the SYSTEM to “L”. If it is set to one other than “L”, you cannot receive the TV channel of the SECAM-L system.

Other TV channels:

If you do not know the correct broadcasting system, set the SYSTEM to “B/G”. If “B/G” is not correct, it results in the fact that you will not hear the sound normally when the TV detects a TV channel. In this case, retry to set the

SYSTEM again correctly so that no problem arises.

This TV has an ACI function which decodes the ACI (automatic Channel Installation) data.

Using the ACI function allows all TV channels transmitted from the cable TV station to be properly registered quickly according to the data from the cable TV station.

Caution:

START/ACI SKIP” appears in the AUTO PROGRAM menu, the ACI function is enabled. In all other cases, it is disabled.

1 Press the 6 button to choose ACI

START. Then press the a

button to start the ACI function.

When you don't want to use the ACI function:

Press the 6 button to choose ACI SKIP and then press the a

button.

If the AUTO PROGRAM menu changes to another menu:

Depending on your cable TV station, there may be a broadcast selection menu set up by the cable TV station.

Follow the menu indications and use the 5 and 6 buttons to operate the menu. After you have made the setting, press the a

button.

If “ACI ERROR” is displayed in the AUTO PROGRAM menu:

“ACI ERROR” denotes that the ACI function is not working properly. Press the a button to start the ACI function again.

If “ACI ERROR” still appears even after you have tried to start the ACI function several times, press the 3 button to start the AUTO PROGRAM function. It does not cause any problem because all the TV channels are registered to the Programme numbers (PR) by the AUTO PRO-

GRAM function.

2 When the settings are completed, the EDIT menu is displayed. Return to the instructions that you were reading before, and continue the operation.

When the “Initial Settings” has been made:

Return to step 6 of “Initial Settings” on page 4.

When the “AUTO PROGRAM” has been made:

Return to step 4 of “AUTO PROGRAM” on page 23.

Note:

• If you have any questions about the items in the

Broadcast Selection menu or how to operate the menu, please contact your cable TV station.

• When the cable TV broadcast reception is poor, the

ACI function will not work properly.

• If there is an error in the ACI data itself, the TV chan- nel cannot be registered properly. If this happens, turn the ACI function off (ACI SKIP) and use the

AUTO PROGRAM function. Alternatively, use the

EDIT/MANUAL function to correct the Programme number (PR) setting.

You can transmit to the latest Programme numbers (PR) data to the VCR with the T-V LINK function.

ADDITIONAL PREPARATION

Devices which can output the S-VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) such as a S-VHS VCR

Connect the device to an EXT terminal other than the EXT-1 terminal.

You can choose a video input signal from the S-VIDEO signal

(Y/C signal) and regular video signal (composite signal). For details of how to operate the device, see “S-IN (S-VIDEO input)” on page 19.

Be sure to connect the T-V LINK compatible VCR to the

EXT-2 terminal. If not, the T-V LINK function will not work properly.

Note:

• When connecting a T-V LINK compatible VCR to the

EXT-2 terminal, be sure to connect the Decoder to the

VCR. If not, the T-V LINK function may not work properly.

After you have registered TV channels to the Programme numbers (PR), set the DECODER (EXT-2) function for the

Programme number (PR) to ON in order to unscramble a scrambled TV channel. For details of operation, see “Using the DECODER (EXT-2) function” on page 28.

Connect the headphones with a stereo mini-jack (of 3.5mm in diameter) to the headphone jack at the TV front panel.

Note:

• When you connect the headphones, the TV speakers is- sue no sound.

Video/sound signal output from the

EXT-2 terminal

You can arbitrarily change over the output of the video/sound signal from the EXT-2 terminal. It is useful when you want to dub the video/sound from another device on the VCR connected to the EXT-2 terminal. For details on how to do this operation, see “DUBBING” on page 20.

The output of video/sound signal of a TV channel you are currently viewing is always output from the EXT-1 terminal.

Note:

• Changing over a Programme number (PR) also changes over the TV output from the EXT-1 terminal.

• The video/sound signal from an EXT terminal cannot be output.

• Teletext programmes cannot be output.

FRANCE, choose a three-digit CH/CC number.

• Find the CH/CC number (CC110 to CC161) corresponding to the TV channel (SECAM-L system) from a French cable TV sta- tion, based on the broadcast frequency of the TV channel. When you do not know the broadcast frequency, please contact the cable TV station.

• The CH/CC numbers of CH102-CH169 and CC110-CC161 correspond to the TV channels being broadcast by a SECAM-L system. The other CH/CC numbers correspond to the TV channels being broadcast by a method other than a SECAM-L system.

If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this “Troubleshooting” well before you request having the TV repaired.

You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, if the AC plug is disconnected from the AC outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may think there is a problem with the TV itself.

Important:

• This Troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose cause are not easy to determine. If a question arise when you are operating a function, read the page(s) corresponding to the operation of the function well, not this Troubleshooting guide.

• After you have followed the Troubleshooting description or the operating description of the functions concerned without any success, remove the AC plug from the AC outlet and request a repair of your TV. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or remove the rear cover of the TV.

• Is the AC plug connected to the AC outlet?

• Is the Power lamp lit? If not, press the Main power button.

• Have you chosen a TV channel whose reception is extremely bad? In this case, the BLUE BACK function will be activated, the entire screen becomes blue, and the sound is muted.

In spite of this, if you want to view the TV channel, follow the description “BLUE BACK” on page 21 to try to change the

BLUE BACK function setting to OFF.

• Have you connected the headphones to the TV? Connecting the headphones to the TV causes sounds not to be issued from the TV speakers.

• If the SYSTEM setting for a TV channel is incorrect, it may prevent the sound from being issued. Follow the description

“EDIT/MANUAL” on page 24 to use the MANUAL function to try to change the SYSTEM setting.

• Videotaping teletext is not recommended because it may not record correctly.

• When a white and bright still image (such as a white dress) is displayed on the screen, the white part may look as if it were coloured. It is a phenomenon unavoidable due to the nature of the picture tube itself, and not due to a TV failure.

When the picture disappears from the screen, the unnatural colours will also disappear.

• When viewing images from commercially available video software products, or videos from videotapes which have been recorded improperly, the top of the image may be distorted. This is due to the condition of the video signal, and not because of malfunction.

• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE properly? If not, follow the description “Sound Adjustment” on page 18 to try to adjust them properly.

• When the TV channel reception is poor, it can be hard to hear the stereo or bilingual sound. In this case, follow the description “STEREO / I • II” on page 18 to hear the sound more easily by changing it to a mono sound.

• If noise totally obscures the picture (snow), the aerial or aerial cable may have trouble. Check the following to try to solve the trouble:

Has the TV and aerial been connected properly?

Has the aerial cable been damaged?

Is the aerial pointed to the right direction?

Is the aerial itself faulty?

• If the TV or aerial receives interference from the other devices, stripes or noise may appear in the picture. Move such devices as an amplifier, personal computer, or a hair drier that can cause interference away from your TV, or try changing its location. If the aerial suffers interference from a radio tower or high-voltage wire, please contact your local dealer.

• If the TV receives interference from signal reflecting from mountains or building, double-pictures (ghosting) will occur.

Try to change the aerial’s direction or replace the antenna with the one with better directionality.

• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings for the TV channels correct? Follow the description “COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 16 to try to solve the trouble.

• Has COLOUR or BRIGHT been controlled properly? Follow the description “Picture Adjustment” on page 15 to try to adjust them properly.

• Have the batteries of the remote control become exhausted? Follow the description “Putting Batteries into the Remote Control” on page 2 and replace them with new batteries to try to solve the problem.

• Have you attempted to use the remote control at the sides or rear of the TV or at a location more than seven meters apart from the TV location? Operate the remote control in the front of your TV or a location less than seven meters from your TV to try to solve the problem.

• When you are viewing a teletext programme, you cannot operate the menus. Press the b

button to return the teletext programme to the ordinary TV programme to try operating the menus.

• If the TV operation becomes disabled suddenly, press the

Main power button on the TV and turn off the main power.

Try to press the Main power button again to turn on the main power. If the TV returns to a normal state, it is not a failure.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• When the SLEEP TIMER function operates, the TV is automatically turned off. If the TV is turned off suddenly, try to press the

#

(Standby) button to turn on the TV once again.

At this time, if the TV resumes a normal state, there is no problem.

• When a WSS signal is included in the broadcast signal or the signal from an external device, or when the TV is receiving a control signal from an external device, the ZOOM mode will change automatically. When you want to return to the previous ZOOM mode, press the c button to choose the ZOOM mode again.

• If you bring a magnetised device such as a speaker near to your TV, a picture may be warped or unnatural colors appear at the corners of the screen. In this case, keep the device apart from your TV. If the speakers causes such phenomena, use the magnetic-shielded speakers instead.

• It takes a short period of time from the time an operation such as changing channels is performed until an image is displayed. This is not a malfunction. This is the time required for the image to stabilize before it can be displayed.

• The TV may emit a crackling sound due to a sudden change in temperature. It does not matter if a picture or sound does not show any abnormality. If you hear crackling sounds frequently while you are viewing the TV, other causes may be assumed. For precautionary purposes, request your service technician to inspect it.

• Touching the screen may cause you feel a slight electric shock due to its static electricity. It is an unavoidable phenomenon due to the construction of the picture tube. It is not a problem with the TV. You can rest assured that this static discharge does not have harmful influence over the human body.

• When a menu is displayed on the screen, the ZOOM mode may be automatically changed to the FULL mode. This is not a malfunction. When the menu disappears, the ZOOM mode will return to the previously set ZOOM mode.
