VIEWING THE SELF CHECK DIAGNOSIS HISTORY
When
an error is detected, the Self Check screen records the number of times

error and for determining if an error is intermittent when the customer
is
not sure what is causing the television to shut down. If the screen displays
a “0”, no error has occurred.
1. Press the “Power to” turn on the TV and then turn it off again.
2. Press the following buttons on the Remote Commander within 1second of each other:
"Display > Channel-5 > Volume(--ve) > Power"
This differs from accessing Service Adjustments Mode (Volume +).
