broadcasting in one screen. When you are
watching Digital terrestrial broadcasting
(DVB-T) in the main picture and
Analogue terrestrial broadcasting in the
sub-picture, COLOUR SYSTEM can be
chosen for the sub picture.
DigiPure function:
This function helps to create a natural-
looking picture by eliminating unnecessary
edges from high-contrast and crisp images.
For images with low-contrast, edges are
added to produce a sharper, more detailed
picture.
DIGITAL VNR
You can choose from the three DigiPure
function settings of AUTO, MIN and MAX.
• If you set the DigiPure effect too high on
a low-quality picture that contains a lot of
noise, this may actually make the noise
worse. We recommend you use the
AUTO setting if you can.
The DIGITAL VNR function cuts down the
amount of ‘noise’ (‘snow’ or interference) in
the original picture.
You can choose from the four DIGITAL
VNR function settings of AUTO(LOW),
AUTO(HIGH), MIN and MAX.
AUTO(LOW)/AUTO(HIGH):
Picture motion compensation
function:
This function displays fast-moving pictures
(for example, the players or ball in a football
game) more smoothly and naturally on the
screen.
• The effect level of the picture motion
compensation function cannot be
changed. The effect level is the same no
matter which of the AUTO, MIN or MAX
settings is used.
The TV will automatically adjust the level of
the DIGITAL VNR effect to match the
amount of noise in the picture, giving you the
best possible picture.
• If you set the DIGITAL VNR effect too
high it can make the picture less sharp. It is
recommended you use the AUTO(LOW)
setting if you can. If you set the DIGITAL
VNR function to AUTO(LOW) but still
notice some noise, change the setting from
AUTO(LOW) to AUTO(HIGH).
AUTO:
MIN:
The TV will automatically adjust the level of

The level of the DIGITAL VNR effect is set

VNR function to AUTO(LOW) but feel that
the sharpness of the original picture has not
been reproduced fully, change the setting

Troubleshooting
Digital terrestrial broadcasting (DVB-T) service area
Although this TV can receive both Digital terrestrial broadcasting (DVB-T) and Analogue terrestrial
broadcasting, depending on the area in which you live, you may not be able to receive Digital
terrestrial broadcasting (DVB-T).
For details of the Digital terrestrial broadcasting (DVB-T) service area, refer to the FREEVIEW
website etc.
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully
before you ask to have the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example,
if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains 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 causes are not easy to decide. If you
have a question when you are operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully,
not this troubleshooting guide.
• If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains
plug and ask for your TV to be repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to
remove the rear cover of the TV.
If you cannot turn on the TV
Poor picture
• Is the mains plug connected to the mains
outlet?
• Is the power lamp lit? If not, press the
main power button.
• If noise (snow) totally blocks out the
picture, there may be a problem with the
aerial or aerial cable. Check the following
to try to solve the problem:
–Have the TV and aerial been connected
properly?
–Has the aerial cable been damaged?
–Is the aerial pointing in the right
• Make sure you set the VCR/TV/DVD
switch to the TV position. You cannot
turn the TV on when the VCR/TV/DVD
switch is set to the VCR or DVD position.
If you cannot turn off the TV
–Is the aerial itself faulty?
• Make sure you set the VCR/TV/DVD
switch to the TV position. You cannot
turn the TV off when the VCR/TV/DVD
switch is set to the VCR or DVD position.
• If the TV or aerial suffers interference
from other equipment, stripes or noise
may appear in the picture. Move any
equipment such as an amplifier, personal
interference away from your TV. Or try
moving the TV. If the aerial suffers
interference from a radio tower or high-
voltage wire, please contact your local
dealer.
• If the TV suffers interference from signals
reflecting from mountains or buildings,
double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try
to change the aerial’s direction or replace
it with one with better directionality.
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings
correct? Follow the description
poor reception? If so, the BLUE BACK
function will be activated: the entire
screen becomes blue, and the sound is
muted. If you still want to view the TV
channel, follow the description “BLUE
BACK” on page 35 to change the BLUE
BACK function setting to OFF.
• If the SYSTEM setting for a TV channel
is incorrect, it may prevent the sound
from being issued. Follow the description
“EDIT/MANUAL (Analogue)” on
“COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 31 to try
to solve the trouble.

Troubleshooting
• Have you attempted to use the remote
• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings
been adjusted properly? Follow the
description “BRIGHT” and “COLOUR”
on page 29 to try to adjust them properly.
• 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 is
coloured. This is 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. There is
nothing wrong with the TV.
• Since this TV is designed to make full use
source, the motion may appear unnatural
when the video source is input with 625p
progressive-scanning component signals.
If this occurs, change the output setting of
the connected device to 625i interlace-
scanning component signal output. See
the instructions that came with the device
for more information.
control from the sides or rear of the TV or
from more than seven metres away from the
TV? Use the remote control in front of your
TV or from less than seven metres away.
• When you are viewing a teletext
programme, you cannot operate the
menus. Press the b button to return to
the ordinary TV programme, and then try
operating the menus.
• If the TV suddenly stops responding,
press the main power button on the TV
and turn off the main power. Press the
main power button again to turn on the
TV. If the TV returns to a normal state, it
is not a failure.
Other issues
• When the SLEEP TIMER function
operates, the TV is automatically turned
off. If the TV suddenly turns off, try to
press the # (standby) button to turn on
the TV once again. If the TV goes back to
normal, there is no problem.
• When the TV is receiving a wide-screen
signal (WSS) or a signal from an external
device affecting the screen size, the
ZOOM mode automatically changes.
ZOOM mode, press the c button
again.
• If you bring magnetised equipment such
as a speaker near to your TV, the picture
may be warped or unnatural colours may
appear at the corners of the screen. In this
case, keep the equipment away from your
TV. If speakers cause this to happen, use
magnetically-shielded speakers instead.
• A picture may be tilted due to the earth’s
magnetic field. If so, use the “PICTURE
TILT” on page 40 to correct the tilt.
• 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 fault. This is the
time needed for the image to stabilize
before it can be displayed.
Poor sound
• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE
properly? If not, follow the description
“BASS” or “TREBLE” on page 33.
be hard to hear stereo or bilingual sound.
In this case, follow the description
“STEREO / I • II” on page 33 to hear the
sound more easily by changing it to a
mono sound.
If the TV does not respond to the
remote control
• Have the batteries of the remote control
worn out? Follow the description “Putting
the batteries into the remote control” on
page 8 and replace them with new batteries.

Troubleshooting
• The TV may make a crackling sound due
to a sudden change in temperature. The
picture or sound may be normal. If you
hear crackling sounds frequently while
you are viewing the TV, there may be
other causes. As a precaution, ask your
service technician to inspect it.
• Touching the screen may cause you to
feel a slight electric shock due to its static
electricity. This is unavoidable due to the
construction of the picture tube. It is not a
problem with the TV. You can rest
assured that this static discharge is not
harmful.
• When set to 2-pictures multi, adjust the
headphone sound with HEADPHONE
VOLUME in the SOUND menu.
