When two CH/CC numbers correspond to one Channel number, choose either one according to the current COUNTRY setting. When the COUNTRY setting is other than FRANCE, choose a two-digit CH/CC number. When the COUNTRY setting is FRANCE, choose a three-digit CH/ CC number. Find the CH/CC number (CC110 to CC161) corresponding to the TV channel (SECAM-L system) from a French cable TV station, based on the broadcast frequency of the TV channel. When you do not know the broadcast frequency, please contact the cable TV station. The CH/CC numbers of CH102-CH169 and CC110-CC161 correspond to the TV channels being broadcast by a SECAM-L system. The other CH/CC numbers correspond to the TV channels being broadcast by a method other than a SECAM-L system.

Troubleshooting

If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this Troubleshooting well before you request having the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, if the AC plug is disconnected from the AC outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may think there is a problem with the TV itself. Important: This Troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose cause are not easy to determine. If a question arise when you are operating a function, read the page(s) corresponding to the operation of the function well, not this Troubleshooting guide. After you have followed the Troubleshooting description or the operating description of the functions concerned without any success, remove the AC plug from the AC outlet and request a repair of your TV. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or remove the rear cover of the TV.
If you cannot turn on the TV
Is the AC plug connected to the AC outlet? Is the Power lamp lit? If not, press the Main power button.

Poor picture

If noise totally obscures the picture (snow), the aerial or aerial cable may have trouble. Check the following to try to solve the trouble: Has the TV and aerial been connected properly? Has the aerial cable been damaged? Is the aerial pointed to the right direction? Is the aerial itself faulty? If the TV or aerial receives interference from the other devices, stripes or noise may appear in the picture. Move such devices as an amplifier, personal computer, or a hair drier that can cause interference away from your TV, or try changing its location. If the aerial suffers interference from a radio tower or highvoltage wire, please contact your local dealer. If the TV receives interference from signal reflecting from mountains or building, double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try to change the aerials direction or replace the antenna with the one with better directionality. Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings for the TV channels correct? Follow the description COLOUR SYSTEM on page 21 to try to solve the trouble.
