My remote control does not work.
What should I do?
Check the antenna or cable connection to the main unit.
Check the batteries on the remote control.
Re-insert or replace the AAA batteries with their polarities (+/–) as indicated on the remote
control battery area.
Check if there is an obstacle between the infrared sensor window and the remote control.

If okay, then possible infrared sensor trouble.
Aim the remote control directly at the infrared sensor window on the front of the unit.
Reduce the distance to the unit.
When there is an infrared-equipped device such as PC near this unit, it may interrupt the
remote control signal on this unit. Move the infrared-equipped device away from this unit,
change the angle of the device's infrared sensor or turn off the infrared communication
function.
How come the Setup Wizard appears
every time I turn on this unit?

Make sure to complete the setup wizard before the unit goes into standby mode.
Why can I not watch some RF signal TV
programs?

location where previously unavailable channels are broadcast.
Make sure Start Scan has been completed. L p. 23

The unit requires some kind of antenna input. An indoor antenna (Digital or VHF/UHF), an
external antenna (Digital or VHF/UHF), or an RF coaxial cable from your wall cable or set-
top box needs to be plugged into the unit.
How come there is no image from the
connected external devices?
Check the antenna, cable, or other input connection to the unit.
When using the component video connection check that the green (Y), blue (Pb/Cb), and
red (Pr/Cr) connectors are connected to their corresponding colored jacks on the unit.
When I enter a channel number, why
does it change automatically?
Many digital channels have alternate channel numbers. The unit changes the numbers
automatically to the ones signifying the broadcasting station's channel number. These basic
numbers used for the previous analog broadcasts. (e.g., input digital ch# 30 automatically
changes to digital ch# 8.1)
Why are captions not displayed
entirely?
Or why are captions delayed behind
the dialog?
Closed captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialog are common for
live broadcasts. Most captioning production companies can display a dialog to maximum
of 220 words per minute. If a dialog exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure that
the closed captions remain up-to date with the current TV screen dialog.
How can I set the clock?
Switch to TIME menu, you can set the clock in Clock selection.
My PIN code no longer works, how can
I change the child lock setting?
