SERVICE TIP
Many customer generated symptoms, intermittent symptoms or no symptom found can be resolved by using the various Reset and Initialization options. Before visiting the customer’s home ask the customer 1st to try the System Reset button on the control panel and if this does not resolve the issue, then they can perform an A/V Reset by pressing the Guide + Format buttons on the front panel at the same time. Then, if necessary, perform a user level Initialization by pressing MENU-123-ENTER with the remote. The customer should be made aware when settings and/or options will be reset.

A/V MEMORY
Each of the external inputs has it’s own Audio/Video Memory. A change in an A/V setting at a specific input is stored in memory for that specific input.
A/V RESET
1. Press the front panel <GUIDE> and <FORMAT> buttons at the same time to initialize the A/V Memory for all inputs.
2. The AV Reset in the user’s menu initializes only the selected input’s A/V Memory

ERROR CODE OPERATIONAL CHECK
When an abnormal condition is indicated by the Status LED, perform the Error Code Operational Check.
To activate, press the front panel <INPUT> and <MENU> buttons at the same time and hold for 5 seconds.
The “POWER LED” will then flash denoting a two digit code.
# The number of flashes indicates the value of the MSD (tens digit) of the Error Code.
# The flashing then pauses for approximately 1/2 second.
# The LED then flashes indicating the value of the LSD (ones digit) of the Error Code.
# The Error Code is repeated a total of 5 times.
Example: If the Error Code is “23”, the LED will flash two times, pause, and then flash three times.
Note: The TV must be in “Shut Down” and not have been switched Off, to perform the Error Code Operational Check. When the TV is switched Off, the code automatically resets to “12” No Error.
Note: Use the front panel buttons, not the remote control.
Note: If there is no response, the front panel may be locked by a V-Chip setting. To unlock, press and hold <MENU> for 5 seconds.
