„ Direct Rec
“What You See Is What You Record”
You can easily record to VCR the images
that you are watching on the TV.
For details, read the manual for your VCR.
Use your VCR controls. “VCR IS
RECORDING” is displayed.
In the following situations, the VCR
will stop recording if the TV is turned
off, if the TV channel or input is
changed, or if the menu is displayed
on the TV:
• when recording images from an external
device connected to the TV (for example
a camcorder)
• when recording a TV channel after it has
been unscrambled on a decoder
• when recording a TV channel by using the
TV’s output because the VCR’s own
tuner cannot properly receive that
channel.
You cannot carry out Direct Rec using your
TV’s control.
Generally, the VCR cannot record a TV
channel that it cannot receive properly on its
own tuner, even if you can view that TV
channel on the TV. However, some VCRs
can record a TV channel by using the TV’s
output if that channel can be viewed on the
TV. For details, see your VCR instruction
manual.

Troubleshooting
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully
before you ask to have the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example,
if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may
think there is a problem with the TV itself.
Important:
• This troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose causes are not easy to decide. If you
have a question when you are operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully,
not this troubleshooting guide.
• If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains
plug and ask for your TV to be repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to
remove the rear cover of the TV.
• If the TV or aerial suffers interference
from other equipment, stripes or noise
may appear in the picture. Move any
equipment such as an amplifier, personal
computer, or a hair drier, that can cause
interference away from your TV. Or try
moving the TV. If the aerial suffers
interference from a radio tower or high-
voltage wire, please contact your local
dealer.
• If the TV suffers interference from signals
reflecting from mountains or buildings,
double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try
to change the aerial’s direction or replace
it with one with better directionality.
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings
correct? Follow the description
„ If you cannot turn on the TV
• Is the mains plug connected to the mains
outlet?
• Is the power lamp lit? If not, press the
main power button.

poor reception? If so, the BLUE BACK
function will be activated: the entire

BLUE BACK function setting to OFF.
• Have you connected headphones to the

• Videotaping teletext is not recommended
because it may not record correctly.
• When a white and bright still image (such
as a white dress) is displayed on the

Troubleshooting
• If you bring a magnetised equipment such
as a speaker near to your TV, the picture
may be warped or unnatural colours now
appear at the corners of the screen. In this
case, keep the equipment away from your
TV. If speakers cause this to happen, use
magnetic-shielded speakers instead.
• A picture may be tilted due to the earth’s
own magnetic field. If so, use the
„ Poor sound
• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE
properly? If not, follow the description
“Sound Adjustment” on page 21.
• When TV channel reception is poor, it can
be hard to hear stereo or bilingual sound.
In this case, follow the description
“STEREO / I • II” on page 21 to hear the
sound more easily by changing it to a
mono sound.
“PICTURE TILT (Only for AV-
32R370KE)” on page 21 to correct the tilt.
• The TV may make a crackling sound due
to a sudden change in temperature. The
picture or sound may be normal. If you
hear crackling sounds frequently while
you are viewing the TV, there may be
other causes. As a precaution, ask your
service technician to inspect it.
„ If the TV does not respond to the
remote control
• Have the batteries of the remote control
worn out? Follow the description “Putting
the batteries into the Remote control” on
page 6 and replace them with new
batteries.
• Have you attempted to use the remote
control from the sides or rear of the TV or
from more than seven metres away from
the TV? Use the remote control in the
front of your TV or from less than seven
metres away.
• When you are viewing a teletext
programme, you cannot operate the
menus. Press the b button to return to
the ordinary TV programme, and then try
operating the menus.
• Touching the screen may cause you to
feel a slight electric shock due to its static
electricity. This is unavoidable due to the
construction of the picture tube. It is not a
problem with the TV. You can rest
assured that this static discharge is not
harmful.
• If the TV will not respond suddenly, press
the main power button on the TV and turn
off the main power. Press the main power
button again to turn on the TV. If the TV
returns to a normal state, it is not a failure.
„ Other issues
• When the SLEEP TIMER function
operates, the TV is automatically turned
off. If the TV is turned off suddenly, try to
press the # (standby) button to turn on
the TV once again. If the TV goes back to
normal, there is no problem.
• When the TV is receiving a wide-screen
signal (WSS) or a signal from an external
device affecting the screen size, the
ZOOM mode automatically changes.
When you want to resume the previous
ZOOM mode, press the c button
again.

• When two CH/CC numbers correspond to one Channel number, choose either one according to
the current COUNTRY setting. When the COUNTRY setting is other than FRANCE, choose a
two-digit CH/CC number. When the COUNTRY setting is FRANCE, choose a three-digit CH/
CC number.
• Find the CH/CC number (CC110 to CC161) corresponding to the TV channel (SECAM-L
system) from a French cable TV station, based on the broadcast frequency of the TV channel.
When you do not know the broadcast frequency, please contact the cable TV station.
• The CH/CC numbers of CH102-CH169 and CC110-CC161 correspond to the TV channels
being broadcast by a SECAM-L system. The other CH/CC numbers correspond to the TV
channels being broadcast by a method other than a SECAM-L system.

Troubleshooting
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this “Troubleshooting” well before
you request having the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example, if
the AC plug is disconnected from the AC outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may think
there is a problem with the TV itself.
Important:
• This Troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose cause are not easy to determine. If a
question arise when you are operating a function, read the page(s) corresponding to the
operation of the function well, not this Troubleshooting guide.
• After you have followed the Troubleshooting description or the operating description of the
functions concerned without any success, remove the AC plug from the AC outlet and request
a repair of your TV. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or remove the rear cover of
the TV.
„ If you cannot turn on the TV
„ Poor picture
• Is the AC plug connected to the AC
outlet?
• Is the Power lamp lit? If not, press the
Main power button.
• If noise totally obscures the picture
(snow), the aerial or aerial cable may have
trouble. Check the following to try to
solve the trouble:
Has the TV and aerial been connected
properly?
„ No picture/No sound
• Have you chosen a TV channel whose
reception is extremely bad? In this case,
the BLUE BACK function will be
activated, the entire screen becomes blue,
and the sound is muted. In spite of this, if
you want to view the TV channel, follow
the description “BLUE BACK” on
page 24 to try to change the BLUE BACK
function setting to OFF.
• Have you connected the headphones to
the TV? Connecting the headphones to
the TV causes sounds not to be issued
from the TV speakers.
• Have you set the SPEAKER function to
OFF? Follow the description
“SPEAKER” on page 21 to confirm the
SPEAKER function setting to try to solve
the problem.
• If the SYSTEM setting for a TV channel
is incorrect, it may prevent the sound
from being issued. Follow the description
“EDIT/MANUAL” on page 28 to use the
MANUAL function to try to change the
SYSTEM setting.
Has the aerial cable been damaged?
Is the aerial pointed to the right
direction?
Is the aerial itself faulty?
• If the TV or aerial receives interference
from the other devices, stripes or noise
may appear in the picture. Move such
devices as an amplifier, personal
computer, or a hair drier that can cause
interference away from your TV, or try
changing its location. If the aerial suffers
interference from a radio tower or high-
voltage wire, please contact your local
dealer.
• If the TV receives interference from
signal reflecting from mountains or
building, double-pictures (ghosting) will
occur. Try to change the aerial’s direction
or replace the antenna with the one with
better directionality.
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings for
the TV channels correct? Follow the
description “COLOUR SYSTEM” on
page 19 to try to solve the trouble.

Troubleshooting
• Has COLOUR or BRIGHT been
controlled properly? Follow the
„ Operation disabled
• Have the batteries of the remote control
become exhausted? Follow the
description “Putting the batteries into the
Remote control” on page 3 and replace
them with new batteries to try to solve the
problem.
description “Picture Adjustment” on
page 18 to try to adjust them properly.
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended
because it may not record correctly.
• When a white and bright still image (such
as a white dress) is displayed on the
screen, the white part may look as if it
were coloured. It is a phenomenon
unavoidable due to the nature of the
picture tube itself, and not due to a TV
failure. When the picture disappears from
the screen, the unnatural colours will also
disappear.
• When viewing images from commercially
available video software products, or
videos from videotapes which have been
recorded improperly, the top of the image
may be distorted. This is due to the
condition of the video signal, and not
because of malfunction.
• Have you attempted to use the remote
control at the sides or rear of the TV or at
a location more than seven meters apart
from the TV location? Operate the remote
control in the front of your TV or a
location less than seven meters from your
TV to try to solve the problem.
• When you are viewing a teletext
programme, you cannot operate the
menus. Press the b button to return the
teletext programme to the ordinary TV
programme to try operating the menus.
• If the TV operation becomes disabled
suddenly, press the Main power button on
the TV and turn off the main power. Try
to press the Main power button again to
turn on the main power. If the TV returns
to a normal state, it is not a failure.
„ Poor sound
Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE
properly? If not, follow the description
“Sound Adjustment” on page 20 to try to
adjust them properly.
„ Other concerns
• When the SLEEP TIMER function
operates, the TV is automatically turned
off. If the TV is turned off suddenly, try to
press the # (Standby) button to turn on
the TV once again. At this time, if the TV
resumes a normal state, there is no
problem.
When the TV channel reception is poor, it
can be hard to hear the stereo or bilingual
sound. In this case, follow the description
“STEREO / I • II” on page 20 to hear the
sound more easily by changing it to a mono
sound.
• When a WSS signal is included in the
broadcast signal or the signal from an
external device, or when the TV is
receiving a control signal from an external
device, the ZOOM mode will change
automatically. When you want to return to
the previous ZOOM mode, press the
c button to choose the ZOOM
mode again.
• If you bring a magnetised device such as a
speaker near to your TV, a picture may be
warped or unnatural colours appear at the
corners of the screen. In this case, keep
the device apart from your TV. If the
speakers causes such phenomena, use the
magnetic-shielded speakers instead.

Troubleshooting
• A picture may be tilted due to the
influence of the earth’s magnetism. In this
case, use the “PICTURE TILT (Only for
AV-32T35SPE)” on page 20 to complete
the tilt.
• It takes a short period of time from the
time an operation such as changing
channels is performed until an image is
displayed. This is not a malfunction. This
is the time required for the image to
stabilize before it can be displayed.
• The TV may emit a crackling sound due
to a sudden change in temperature. It does
not matter if a picture or sound does not
show any abnormality. If you hear
crackling sounds frequently while you are
viewing the TV, other causes may be
assumed. For precautionary purposes,
request your service technician to inspect
it.
• Touching the screen may cause you feel a
slight electric shock due to its static
electricity. It is an unavoidable
phenomenon due to the construction of
the picture tube. It is not a problem with
the TV. You can rest assured that this
static discharge does not have harmful
influence over the human body.
• When a menu is displayed on the screen,
the ZOOM mode may be automatically
changed to the FULL mode. This is not a
malfunction. When the menu disappears,
the ZOOM mode will return to the
previously set ZOOM mode.

“What You See Is What You Record”
You can easily record to VCR the images
that you are watching on the TV.
For details, read the manual for your VCR.
Use your VCR controls. “VCR IS
RECORDING” is displayed.
In the following situations, the VCR
will stop recording if the TV is turned
off, if the TV channel or input is
changed, or if the menu is displayed
on the TV:
• when recording images from an external
device connected to the TV (for example

Generally, the VCR cannot record a TV
channel that it cannot receive properly on its
own tuner, even if you can view that TV
channel on the TV. However, some VCRs
can record a TV channel by using the TV’s
output if that channel can be viewed on the
TV. For details, see your VCR instruction
manual.

Troubleshooting
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully
before you ask to have the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example,
if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may
think there is a problem with the TV itself.
Important:
• This troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose causes are not easy to decide. If you
have a question when you are operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully,
not this troubleshooting guide.
• If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains
plug and ask for your TV to be repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to
remove the rear cover of the TV.
• If the TV or aerial suffers interference
from other equipment, stripes or noise
may appear in the picture. Move any
equipment such as an amplifier, personal
computer, or a hair drier, that can cause
interference away from your TV. Or try
moving the TV. If the aerial suffers
interference from a radio tower or high-
voltage wire, please contact your local
dealer.
• If the TV suffers interference from signals
reflecting from mountains or buildings,
double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try
to change the aerial’s direction or replace
it with one with better directionality.
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings
correct? Follow the description
„ If you cannot turn on the TV
• Is the mains plug connected to the mains
outlet?
• Is the power lamp lit? If not, press the
main power button.
„ No picture or no sound
• Have you chosen a TV channel with very
poor reception? If so, the BLUE BACK
function will be activated: the entire
screen becomes blue, and the sound is
muted. If you still want to view the TV
channel, follow the description “BLUE
BACK” on page 25 to try to change the
BLUE BACK function setting to OFF.
• Have you connected headphones to the
TV?
Connecting headphones to the TV turns
off the TV speakers.
“COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 20 to try
to solve the trouble.
• Have you set the SPEAKER function to
OFF? Follow the description
“SPEAKER” on page 22 to check the
• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings
been adjusted properly? Follow the
description “Picture Adjustment” on
page 19 to try to adjust them properly.
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended
because it may not record correctly.
• When a white and bright still image (such
as a white dress) is displayed on the
screen, the white part may look as if it is
coloured. This is unavoidable due to the
nature of the picture tube itself, and not
due to a TV failure. When the picture
disappears from the screen, the unnatural
colours will also disappear.
SPEAKER function setting.
„ Poor picture
• If noise (snow) totally block out the
picture, there may be a problem with the
aerial or aerial cable. Check the following
to try to solve the problem:
– Have the TV and aerial been connected
properly?
– Has the aerial cable been damaged?
– Is the aerial pointing in the right
direction?
– Is the aerial itself faulty?

Troubleshooting
• If you bring a magnetised equipment such
as a speaker near to your TV, the picture
may be warped or unnatural colours now
appear at the corners of the screen. In this
case, keep the equipment away from your
TV. If speakers cause this to happen, use
magnetic-shielded speakers instead.
• A picture may be tilted due to the earth’s
own magnetic field. If so, use the
„ Poor sound
• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE
properly? If not, follow the description
“Sound Adjustment” on page 21.
• When TV channel reception is poor, it can
be hard to hear stereo or bilingual sound.
In this case, follow the description
“STEREO / I • II” on page 21 to hear the
sound more easily by changing it to a
mono sound.
“PICTURE TILT (Only for AV-
32T67SKE)” on page 21 to correct the tilt.
• The TV may make a crackling sound due
to a sudden change in temperature. The
picture or sound may be normal. If you
hear crackling sounds frequently while
you are viewing the TV, there may be
other causes. As a precaution, ask your
service technician to inspect it.
„ If the TV does not respond to the
remote control
• Have the batteries of the remote control
worn out? Follow the description “Putting
the batteries into the Remote control” on
page 6 and replace them with new
batteries.
• Have you attempted to use the remote
control from the sides or rear of the TV or
from more than seven metres away from
the TV? Use the remote control in the
front of your TV or from less than seven
metres away.
• When you are viewing a teletext
programme, you cannot operate the
menus. Press the b button to return to
the ordinary TV programme, and then try
operating the menus.
• Touching the screen may cause you to
feel a slight electric shock due to its static
electricity. This is unavoidable due to the
construction of the picture tube. It is not a
problem with the TV. You can rest
assured that this static discharge is not
harmful.
• If the TV will not respond suddenly, press
the main power button on the TV and turn
off the main power. Press the main power
button again to turn on the TV. If the TV
returns to a normal state, it is not a failure.
„ Other issues
• When the SLEEP TIMER function
operates, the TV is automatically turned
off. If the TV is turned off suddenly, try to
press the # (standby) button to turn on
the TV once again. If the TV goes back to
normal, there is no problem.
• When the TV is receiving a wide-screen
signal (WSS) or a signal from an external
device affecting the screen size, the
ZOOM mode automatically changes.
When you want to resume the previous
ZOOM mode, press the c button
again.
