■ Is the volume too low? Press the Volume button.

I do not see an image at power-on.
■ Are the connections to the input signal source component correct?
Double-check that the cables are properly inserted in the color-coded
connectors.
■ Is the input source powered on? Turn on the set-top box, DVD player,
or other component you are trying to view.
■ Is the correct input signal source selected? Press the Source button on
the remote control and confirm the source is selected.

■ If the OSD appears, check the cables to the input source, and
press the Source button on the remote control to choose the input

power.”
There is no power.
■ Press the Power button on the remote control unit.

■ Is the AC cord disconnected? Make sure both ends of the power cord
are plugged in.

other electrical device into the same outlet as the TV to make sure
there is power coming from the outlet.
■ If using a power strip, make sure it is turned on.
