3 Connecting the aerial and VCR
Read the manuals provided with the devices. Depending on the device, the connection method may be different from the diagrams. Also the device settings may need to change depending on the connection method. Turn off all the devices including the TV. Connecting cables are not supplied. When connecting monaural audio to the TV, use the L/MONO jack. If your TV has an S-connector, you can connect an S-VIDEO compatible device (such as an SVHS VCR) to the S-connector with an S-VIDEO cable and enjoy the high quality picture of the SVIDEO signal (Y/C signal). In that case, do not connect it to the TV with a video cable. If you connect the VCR to the TV only with an aerial cable, you should preset the video channel from the VCR to the AV channel (channel number 0) on this TV. See MANUAL CH PRESET on page 18 and preset it manually.

Press the Main power button on the TV. Connect the power cord to the AC outlet.

Poor picture

Press the COLOUR SYSTEM button to select another colour system. (see page 8.) Adjust the picture settings. (see page 16.)

If noise (snow) totally blocks out the picture, check the following. - Have the TV and aerial been connected properly? - Has the aerial cable been damaged? - Is the aerial pointing in the right direction? - Is the aerial itself faulty? If the TV or aerial suffer interference from other equipment, stripes or noise may appear in the picture. Move any equipment which can cause interference away from the TV. If the TV or aerial suffer interference from signals reflecting from mountains or buildings, double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Change the aerials direction or replace it with an aerial with better directionality. When a white and bright still image (such as a white dress) is displayed on the screen, the white part may look as if it is coloured. When the image disappears from the screen, the unnatural colours will also disappear.

The screen turns blue
