Solutions and Explanations
A scheduled recording is disabled for certain operations (formatting, performance test, error checking,
deleting) that access the file system of a USB device.
•
If there is no USB device connected, the TV will not record even if the scheduled time is reached.
•
The TV will not record if the USB device has no free memory space. Check that this is not the case.
•
If you record a channel locked with Parental lock, the PIN input window will appear when you try to
play back the recording.
•
If multiple recording devices are connected and the device set as Default Recording Device has no
free memory space, the recording function will be closed. Attempt recording again. The device with
the most free memory space will automatically be set as Default Recording Device and the TV will
start recording.
•
HD channels will have black bars on either side of the screen when displaying up scaled SD (4:3)
contents.
•
Black bars on the top and bottom will appear during movies that have aspect ratios different from
your TV.

Clean the sensor's transmission window on the remote.

Programme the Cable/Set top box remote control to operate the TV. Refer to the Cable/Set user

cannot remove the screws from the TV.

flexible enough for long term use. If mounting the TV to the wall, we recommend using cables with 90
degree connectors.
