TV turns on unexpectedly
• Wake-Up Timer may have been activated. Go to page 61 for instructions.
• Initial Channel feature is enabled and you lost power to your TV. Go to page 58 for instructions.
Video and audio are out of sync
• If you’ve connected a device, such as a DVD player, to your TV’s Video jack, and to an audio
receiver using the audio jacks, you may experience a slight delay between the audio heard and
the video seen. Connect the DVD player to the TV’s Audio jacks, then use the TV’s FIXED/
VARIABLE AUDIO OUTPUT jacks to connect to an audio receiver.
If your TV is connected to an audio/video (A/V) receiver or home theatre system via the DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT jack, read the following information.
• If you’ve connected a device to your A/V receiver, such as a DVD player or satellite receiver, you
may experience a slight delay between the audio heard and the video seen. This occurs because
the digital audio is sent directly to the speakers while the video must be processed inside the TV
before it is displayed.
• If the device has Component Video (Y, Pb, Pr) jacks, connect these jacks to the TV’s Y, Pb,
Pr jacks to minimize the discrepancy. This works best if the device supports Progressive Scan
technology.
• If necessary, you can connect the device directly to the TV using L/R audio jacks and bypassing
the A/V receiver or you can program an audio delay in the A/V receiver so the audio and video
match up (not all audio equipment has the ability to program delays). Check the Audio/Video
Receiver’s manual.
Blank screen
• Make sure you have connected the device to the TV correctly.
• Make sure the device connected to the TV is turned on and tuned to the corresponding Video
Input Channel.
• Try another channel, or press the INPUT or ANT•CAB button.
• When you fi rst turn off your TV, the screen fades from blue to black. Once the screen goes black,
the TV’s internal lamp starts its cool-down cycle. If you try to turn on the TV during the cool-
down cycle, the TV turns back on and you’ll hear audio, but the picture will take a few moments
to be displayed.
Unusual sound quality
• Check the Graphic Equalizer, SRS, and Sound Logic settings.
• Check if SAP is turned on.
• Check that the Audio Mode is set to your language.
Humming or buzzing noise
• The TV is in its lamp cool-down cycle. To prolong the life of the TV’s lamp system, the TV must
warm up and cool down properly. You may notice additional noise during these cycles.
• Maybe the speakers are turned off. Check the FIXED/VARIABLE OUT control panel in the Audio
menu.
No picture, sound okay
• If the indicator on the front of the TV is blinking for one minute, the lamp inside of your TV may
need to be changed. Refer to the Power indicator is blinking or fl ashing section on the previous
page for more information.
• You might have tried to turn on the TV during lamp cool-down. Wait a few moments and the
picture will be displayed.
