8. POOR RECEPTION ON TELEVISION
SOLUTION:
SOLUTION:
a. Make sure that the television settings are set correctly.
b. For the digital television to operate
properly, good reception is necessary. If you are using an antenna, make sure
that it is properly connected and adjusted for optimal reception.
c. Check for the problems listed below and
follow the applicable instructions.
# Ignition (black spots or horizontal streaks that appear or a picture that flutters or drifts)— Usually this is caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electric drifts, or other electric appliances. Try changing the position of the treadmill or other electric appliances to correct the problem.
# Ghosts—Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths—one is the direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills, or other objects. Change the direction or position of the antenna to improve reception.
# Blue Screen—If the treadmill is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is weak, the picture may be of poor quality or a blue screen may appear. If the signal is weak, it may be necessary to install an external antenna to improve the picture.
# Fading—If blocks of the picture are missing, the picture moves around the screen, or the picture disappears, the signal may be weak. Change the direction or position of the antenna to improve reception. Make sure the television settings are set correctly .Do not use a splitter.
