POSSIBLE REMEDY
• Make sure the power plug is connected to an AC outlet.
• (In case of power failure) Check the breaker.
• Check if the batteries are weak or inserted incorrectly.
Replace weak batteries and insert with their polarities
(+/- signs) as indicated.
• Aim the remote control at the remote sensor and operate
within 23 feet (7 m) of the unit.
• Remove all obstacles to clear the path of the infrared signal.
• Refer to "IR SIGNAL CHECK".
• Select the correct mode to operate by pressing [SELECT].
• The operable range from the unit is 10 feet (3 m) within 15˚.
• Check if antenna or cable is connected properly
• Check for the broken pin or wire of antenna cable.
• Check for source of reception disturbance.
• Press [SELECT] to select the correct mode.
• Perform channel scanning to memorize available TV channels.
• Try another channel. If OK, then possible station problem.
• Adjust picture control (COLOR/CONTRAST/BRIGHT etc.).
• Check for magnetism from nearby appliances and try
degaussing.
• Adjust volume control using [ VOL.
• Try another channel. If OK, then possible station problem.
• Error committed by the closed captioning production company.
• Possible in a live broadcast. Not in case of a prerecorded pro-
gram.
• A few seconds of delay is common for live broadcast.
If a dialogue exceeds the display capacity (220 words per
minute), selective editing is used so that the captions remain
up-to-date with the current TV screen dialogue.
• Caused by interferences of building, power lines, thunder-
storms, etc.
• The broadcast may use a time compression process to speed
up the program. The decoder cannot read the compressed
information and captions will be lost.
• Possibility of an illegal copy or an erroneous copying process
accidentally performed by the fabricator.
• You are in TEXT mode. Select CAPTION mode or "OFF".
