Issues
Solutions and Explanations
PC Connection
A Mode Not Supported message
appears.
• Set your PC’s output resolution and frequency so they match the resolutions supported by the TV (p.
19).
PC is always shown on the source list,
even if a PC is not connected.
• This is normal; “PC” is always shown on the source list, regardless of whether a PC is connected.
The video is OK but there is no audio.
• If you are using a HDMI connection, check the audio output setting on your PC.
Picture Quality
First of all, please perform the Picture Test and confirm that your TV is properly displaying test image.
(go to MENU - Support - Self Diagnosis - Picture Test) (p. 30)
If the test image is properly displayed, the poor picture may caused by the source or signal.
The TV image does not look as good as it
did in the store.
• If you have an analogue cable/set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use HDMI or Component
cables to deliver HD (high definition) picture quality.
• Cable/Satellite subscribers: Try HD stations from the channel line up.
• Antenna connection: Try HD stations after performing Auto programme.
The picture is distorted: macro block error,
small block, dots, pixelization
• Compression of video contents may cause picture distortion especially in fast moving pictures such
as sports and action movies.
• Low signal level or bad quality can cause picture distortion. This is not a TV issue.
• Mobile phones used close to the TV (cca up to 1m) may cause noise in picture on analogue and
digital TV.
Colour is wrong or missing.
• If you’re using a component connection, make sure the component cables are connected to the
correct jacks. Incorrect or loose connections may cause colour problems or a blank screen.
There is poor colour or brightness.
• Adjust the Picture options in the TV menu. (go to Picture mode / Colour / Brightness / Sharpness)
(p. 23)
• Adjust Energy Saving option in the TV menu. (go to MENU - System - Eco Solution Energy Saving) (p. 29)
• Try resetting the picture to view the default picture settings. (go to MENU - Picture - Reset Picture)
(p.26)
There is a dotted line on the edge of the
screen.
• If the picture size is set to Screen Fit, change it to 16:9 (p. 24).
• Change cable/set top box resolution.
The picture is black and white.
• If you are using an AV composite input, connect the video cable (yellow) to the Green jack of
component input 1 on the TV.
When changing channels, the picture
freezes or is distorted or delayed.
• If connected to a cable box, please try to reset it. (reconnect the AC cord and wait until the cable box
reboots. It may take up to 20 minutes)
• Set the output resolution of the cable box to 1080i or 720p.
Sound Quality
First of all, please perform the Sound Test to confirm that your TV audio is properly operating.
(go to MENU - Support - Self Diagnosis - Sound Test) (p. 30)
If the audio is OK, the sound problem may caused by the source or signal.
There is no sound or the sound is too low
at maximum volume.
• Please check the volume of the device (Cable/Sat Box, DVD, Blu-ray etc) connected to your TV.
The picture is good but there is no sound.
• Set the Speaker Select option to TV Speaker in the Sound menu (p. 27).
• If you are using an external device, make sure the audio cables are connected to the correct audio
input jacks on the TV.
• If you are using an external device, check the device’s audio output option (ex. you may need to
change your cable box’s audio option to HDMI when you have a HDMI connected to your TV).
• If you are using a DVI to HDMI cable, a separate audio cable is required.
• If your TV has a headphone jack, make sure there is nothing plugged into it.
• Reboot the connected device by reconnecting the device’s power cable.
The speakers are making an inappropriate
noise.

Other Information
Issues
Solutions and Explanations
RF(Cable/Antenna) Connection
The TV is not receiving all channels.
• Make sure the Antenna cable is connected securely.
• Please try Plug & Play (Initial setup) to add available channels to the channel list. Go to MENU System - Plug & Play (Initial setup) and wait for all available channels to be stored (p. 15).
• Verify the Antenna is positioned correctly.
The picture is distorted: macro block error
small block, dots, pixelization
• Compression of video contents may cause picture distortion, especially with fast moving pictures
such as sports and action movies.
• A low signal can cause picture distortion. This is not a TV problem.
Others
Purple/green rolling horizontal bars and
buzzing noise from the TV speakers with
Component cable connection.
• Remove the left and right audio connections from the set-top-box. If the buzzing stops, this indicates
that the set-top-box has a grounding issue. Replace the Component video cables with an HDMI
connection.
Image Retention (Burn In) Issue.
• To minimize the possibility of screen burn, this unit is equipped with screen burn reduction technology.
Pixel Shift technology enables you to set picture movement up / down (Vertical Line) and side to side
(Horizontal Dot).
A “Mode Not Supported” message
appears.
• Check the supported resolution of the TV, and adjust the external device’s output resolution
accordingly (p. 19).
There is a plastic smell from the TV.
• This smell is normal and will dissipate over time.
The TV is tilted to the side.
• Remove the base stand from the TV and reassemble it.
Your settings are lost after 30 minutes or
every time the TV is turned off.

the settings from Store Demo mode to Home Use mode in the Plug & Play (Initial setup) procedure.
Press the SOURCE button to select TV mode, and go to MENU → System → Plug & Play (Initial
setup) → ENTERE (p. 15).
You have intermittent loss of audio or
video.
• Check the cable connections and reconnect them.
• Loss of audio or video can be caused by using overly rigid or thick cables. Make sure the cables are
flexible enough for long term use. If mounting the TV to the wall, we recommend using cables with 90
degree connectors.
You see small particles when you look
closely at the edge of the frame of the TV.
• This is part of the product’s design and is not a defect.
The PIP menu is not available.
• PIP functionality is only available when you are using a HDMI, PC or components source (p. 30).
You turned the TV off 45 minutes ago, and
it turned on again.
• It is normal. The TV operates the OTA (Over The Aerial) function itself to upgrade firmware
downloaded whilst your watching TV.
There are recurrent picture/sound issues.
• Check and change the signal/source.
A reaction may occur between the rubber
cushion pads on the base stand and the
top finish of some furniture.
• To prevent this, use felt pads on any surface of the TV that comes in direct contact with furniture.
