Troubleshooting
My TV is out of order.
Why?
Try this.
TV HD is displayed, but
the visual quality is not
good.
• The visual quality may be degraded
when the broadcasting stations convert
the analog signal to digital. (Although
you are watching digital broadcasting,
the video source is analog.)
• Check the transmitting signal of the
corresponding cable TV network or
broadcasting station.
The picture on the
TV screen is broken
intermittently (a mosaic or
distorted).
• This may occur when the broadcast
signal received by the TV is too weak
or unstable.
• Check the transmitting signal of the
corresponding cable TV network or
broadcasting station.
• If you are using a publically shared
antenna, check the signal by asking
your apartment manager.

using the remote control.
• When the battery is flat.
• When it is not in TV mode.
• When the remote control malfunctions
temporarily.
• Replace the battery and then retry.
• Press the TV button on the remote
control to select TV mode.
A strange sound is
generated by the TV.
• Sound may be generated by the
temporary swelling and shrinking of the
plastics in the TV due to temperature
and humidity changes.

sounds may be generated due to the
characteristics of the TV
