Tips
Care of the screen Clean the TV with a slightly damp soft cloth. Do not use abrasive solvent as it can
damage the TV screen.
Poor Picture •Have you selected the correct TV system in the manual installation menu?
•Is your monitor or house aerial located too close to loudspeakers, non-earthed
audio equipment or neon lights, etc.?
•Mountains or high buildings can cause double pictures or ghost images.
Sometimes you can improve the picture quality by changing the direction of the
aerial.
•Is the picture or teletext unrecognisable? Check if you have entered the correct
frequency. See Installation, p. 6.
•Are brightness, sharpness and contrast out of adjustment? Select Factory
settings in the Setup, General menu, p. 8.

box, the other aerial to your recorder, the VGA cables to the display, the power
cables.)
•Has the child lock been switched off ?
•Is your PC switched on ?

green, this means that the display mode is not supported. Switch your
VGA-source to a correct mode.

distortion. In this case select the Soft setting using the Picture menu, Smart Picture,
