Glossary  
RGB Signals :  
These are 3 Red, Green and Blue video signals which directly drive  
the red, green and blue emitters in the picture tube.  
Using these signals provides better picture quality.  
NICAM sound :  
Process by which digital sound can be transmitted.  
System :  
Television pictures are not broadcast in the same way in all countries.  
There are different standards: BG, DK, I, and L L’.The SYSTEM setting  
(p. 6) is used to select these different standards.This is not to be  
confused with PAL or SECAM colour coding. PAL is used in most  
countries in Europe, SECAM in France, Russia and most African  
countries.The United States and Japan use a different system called  
NTSC.  
16:9 :  
Refers to the ratio between the length and height of the screen.  
Wide screen televisions have a ratio of 16/9, conventional screenTV  
sets have a ratio of 4/3.

quality euroconnector cable.  
If your video recorder does not have a euroconnector socket, the only

Tips  
The proximity of mountains or high buildings may be responsible for ghost  
pictures, echoing or shadows. In this case, try manually adjusting your  
picture : see FineTuning (p.5) or modify the orientation of the outside  
aerial.  
Poor reception  
Does your antenna enable you to receive broadcasts in this frequency range  
(UHF orVHF band) ?  
In the event of difficult reception (snowy picture) switch the NR  
(Noise Reduction) on the  
menu to  
(p.4).  
ON  
Picture  
Have you connected the aerial socket properly ?  
No picture  
Have you chosen the right system ? (p. 5). Poorly connected euroconnector  
cables or aerial sockets are often the cause of picture or sound problems  
(sometimes the connectors can become half disconnected if theTV set is  
moved or turned). Check all connections.  
To play a video cassette, check that it has been recorded under the same  
standard (PAL, SECAM, NTSC) which can be replayed by the video  
recorder.  
Peripheral  
equipment gives a  
black and white  
picture  
TheTV set does not react to the remote control ; the indicator on the set  
no longer flashes when you use the remote control ? Replace the batteries.  
Remote control  
If on certain channels you receive a picture but no sound, this means that  
No sound  
you do not have the correctTV system. Modify the System setting (p. 5).  
Are certain characters not displayed correctly ? Check that the Country  
Teletext  
setting has been positioned correctly (p.4).  
Check that the disc does not have any fingerprints on it. Clean it with a soft  
cloth, wiping from the centre to the edge.  
Does the DVD  
player not play?  
Is the disc of the correct region code? (p.9).  
When you switch theTV set on it remains in standby mode and the  
indication Locked is displayed when you use the keys on theTV set ?  
The Child Lock function is switched On (p. 7).  
Standby  
If the set receives no signal for 15 mins, it automatically goes into standby  
mode.  
To save power, your set is fitted with components that give it a very low power  
consumption when in standby mode (less than 4W).  
If yourTV set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself : contact  
your dealer's after-sales service.  
Still no results ?  
Cleaning the set  
Only use a clean, soft and lint-free cloth to clean the screen and the casing  
of your set. Do not use alcohol-based or solvent-based products.
