If the following symptoms occur, please carry out the checks and adjustments described below. There
may be no malfunction.
Operational problems
Cannot view certain programmes.
Adjust the location or orientation of the antenna.
Save the programmes you wish to view using Auto Tuning or Programme Edit.
There is a delay after the TV is switched on before the image is fully visible.
This is normal. Any delay is due to an image deletion process which cleans up image noise that may
occur when the TV is rst switched on.
Image problems
Images from previous programme or other programmes linger or the screen displays annoying lines.
Adjusts the orientation of the antenna to the TV transmitter, or refer to the manual for instructions on
connecting the antenna.
Vibrating horizontal /vertical lines and fishnet patterns appear momentarily
Such a problem may happen when there is strong electronic interference. Turn off other electronic
devices such as mobile phones, power tools and other small electrical appliances.
The screen display freezes or does not work properly during a digital broadcast.
This may occur in case of a weak signal or unstable reception. Adjust the antenna orientation and cable
connections.
If the signal strength or quality is low on Manual Tuning, check with the TV station or administration ofce.
Digital broadcasting is not available even though the cable is connected.
Check with the cable operator providing your subscription and/or signal. (Depending on your
subscription, digital broadcasting may not be supported.)
The display is inactive or unclear when connected to an HDMI® source.
Check the HDMI® cable specications. If your HDMI® cable is not genuine, images may fade in and out
or not be displayed properly.
Ensure that all cables are securely connected. When connections are not secure, images may not be
properly displayed.
Does not work with a USB storage device.
Verify that the USB device and cable is version 2.0 or higher.

Sound problems
Screen display is on but there is no sound.
Check other TV programmes.
[Depending on model] Ensure the TV Speaker is set to On.
For an analogue broadcast, stereo is not clear or sound comes from one speaker only.
In a poor reception area (areas with weak or unstable signals) or if Multi Audio is not stable, select Mono
on Multi Audio.
Adjust the Balance using the Navigation Button.
TV sound is not in sync with the image or the sound breaks up occasionally.
If the issue affects a specic TV programme only, it may be caused by problems with the broadcast
signal for the individual station. Check with the TV station or your cable operator.
The volume changes when I change programme.
Volume can vary from programme to programme.
Set Auto Volume to On.
On certain programmes, there is no sound at all, or only the background music can be heard (in case of
a programme created for overseas viewers).
In Language, set Language → Audio Language to the language of your choice. Even if you change the
language on Multi Audio, you can go back to the default setup once you turn off the power or change the
programme.
There is no sound when connected to an HDMI® / USB source.
Make sure that the High Speed HDMI™ or HDMI® cable is high speed.
Check that the USB device and cable is version 2.0 or higher.
Use only regular music (*mp3) les.
PC connection problem (Only for models supporting PC connection)
The screen display does not come on after connecting to the computer.
Make sure that the computer and the TV are securely connected.
Check whether the resolution is correctly set for PC input.
To use the TV as a secondary monitor, check if the connected desktop or laptop supports dual monitor
display.
There is no sound after connecting the computer with the HDMI cable.
Check with manufacturer of your video card to ensure it supports HDMI voice output. (Video cards in DVI
format require connection of a separate sound cable.)
When connected to the computer, the display is partially cut off or shifts to one side.
Set the resolution to support PC input.
(If this does not work, reboot the computer.)
Problems replaying movies in USB
[This feature is available on certain models only.]
I cannot view the files on the Movie List.
Check whether the le on the USB storage device can be read on a computer.
Check whether the le extension is supported.
The file is invalid. The above error message appears. Sound, video or subtitles is not normal.
Make sure that the le replays normally on the computers video player. (Check for damaged les.)
Check if USB media can support the selected le.

NOTE
y
Vertical Frequency
: In order to display an image, the screen must be refreshed dozens of times per
second like a uorescent lamp.
The number of times the screen is refreshed per second is called vertical frequency or refresh rate
and is represented by Hz.
y
Horizontal Frequency
: The time it takes to display one horizontal line is called the horizontal cycle.
The number of horizontal lines displayed in one second can be calculated by dividing one by the
horizontal cycle. This is called horizontal frequency and is represented by kHz.
y
Check if the video card's resolution or frequency is within the range allowed by the Product and set to
the recommended (optimal) resolution in
Control Panel> Display> Settings
.
y
Failing to set the video card to the recommended (optimal) resolution may result in blurred text, a
dimmed screen, a truncated display area or misalignment of the display.
y
The conguration procedure may differ depending on your computer and/or operating system. Also,
some video cards may not support certain resolutions. If this is the case, contact the manufacturer of
the computer or video card for assistance.
y
Some video cards may not support the 2560 x 1080 resolution.
If the resolution cannot be displayed, contact the manufacturer of your video card.
