Troubleshooting and error codes
| PROBLEMS | CHECK |
|---|---|
| There is no power | See if the power cord became unplugged. Check for a blown fuse or circuit breaker or a power outage. |
| There is no picture or sound | The antenna could be disconnected. The input mode could be set improperly. See page 45. The tuner (Auto Tuner Setup) could be set improperly. See page 26. The TV station may be having difficulties. Check to see if other stations are working. |
| Remote control is not operating properly or at all | Check to see that the batteries are still working and properly installed. Make sure the remote has a clear sight path to the TV. Check that the TV/CATV switch is in the proper position. (Except for RM-C203). You may be too far from the TV. You must be within 23 feet (7 meters). |
| You cannot select a certain channel | Make sure the channels have been programmed. See "Channel Summary", page 26. Check to see if the channel is locked. See "Channel Summary - Lock" page 26. |
| The power turns off by itself | Make sure the set did not become unplugged. Perhaps the On/Off Timer is set. See page 40. Check to see if the Sleep Timer was set. See page 42. |

| The picture is spotted | A building or passing airplane can reflect the original signal and produce a second, slightly delayed one. Adjust your antenna position. |
