Troubleshooting  
If there is no picture or the TV does not operate normally, make sure the problem isn’t due

• Is the BLUE BACK function on? (see page 15.)  
• If noise (snow) totally blocks out the picture,  
check the following.

Buttons on front of the TV do not work  
• Switch the CHILD LOCK function off.  
(see page 14.)  
• If the TV or aerial suffer interference from  
other equipment, stripes or noise may appear
