Answer
My remote control does not work. What
should I do?
Check the antenna or cable connection to the main TV.
Check the batteries of the remote control.
Check if there is an obstacle between the infrared sensor window and
the remote control.
Test the signal output. If OK, then possible infrared sensor trouble.
(Refer to “IR Signal Check” on page 36.)
Aim the remote control directly at the infrared sensor window on the
front of the TV.
Reduce the distance to the TV.
Re-insert the batteries with their polarities (+/– signs) as indicated.
When there is an infrared-equipped device such as PC near this TV, it
may interrupt the remote control signal of this TV.
Move the infrared-equipped device away from this TV, change the angle
of the infrared sensor or turn off the infrared communication function.

Why I cannot watch some of TV programs?

time or move it to a location where previously unavailable channels are
broadcast.
The selected channel may not be broadcasting.
When autoprogram is interrupted and not completed, some channels
will not be received. Make sure to complete.
(Refer to “Autoprogram” on page 15.)
The selected channel cannot be viewed by the Parental control setting.
(Refer to “Parental Control” on page 29.)
The TV requires some kind of antenna input. An indoor antenna (rabbit
ears), an external antenna, or an RF coaxial cable from your wall or cable
receiver /satellite box needs to be plugged into the TV.

Whenever I entered channel number,
it changes automatically.
Many digital channels have alternate channel numbers. The TV changes
the numbers automatically to the ones signifying the broadcasting
stations. These are the numbers used for analog broadcasts.
•
Why are captions not displayed entirely?
Or, captions are delayed behind the
dialogue.
Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialogue are
common for live broadcasts. Most captioning production companies can
display a dialogue to maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialogue
exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure that the captions
remain up-to date with the current TV screen dialogue.

How can I set the clock ?
