Switch off one of the peripherals. • Check the antenna connection. • This may be caused by electrical interference (e.g. hair dryer, nearby neon lights, etc.) Turn off the equipment. • Check whether the batteries are working. Replace if necessary. • Clean the remote control sensor lens on the TV. • You can still use the buttons on the side of your TV. • Your TV is precision-manufactured using an extremely high level of technology. However, sometimes pixels may not display correctly. These types of occurrences are inherent to this type of product and do not constitute a defective product. 19
