Clean the screen with aslightly damp, soft cloth. Do not use
abrasive solvents as they may damage the TV screen coating
layer.
Poor Picture:
Have you selected the correct TV system? Is your TV set or
houseaeriallocated too closetothe loudspeakers, non-
earthed audioequipment or neon lights, etc. ?
Mountainsorhigh buildingscan cause double pictures or
ghost images. Sometimes you can improve the picture quali-
ty bychanging the directionof the aerial.
The picture quality may degrade when two peripherals are
connected to the TV at the same time. In such acase, dis-
connect one of the peripherals.

mission. Have you pressed the correct keys on the remote
control?Tryonce more.
