T-V LINK functions

• For UK model

(AV32X25EK/AV28X25EK):

When you have a T-V LINK compatible

VCR connected to the EXT-2 Terminal on

the TV, it is easier to set up the VCR and to

view videos. T-V LINK uses the following

features:

BBC1, BBC2, ITV, Channel 4 and

Channel 5 are automatically set to the

programme numbers PR1 to PR5. If the

TV doesn't receive one of these TV

channels, that programme number (PR)

will not be set. Programme number PR6 is

not normally set.

To use T-V LINK functions:

A “T-V LINK compatible VCR” means a

JVC video cassette recorder with the T-V

LINK logo, or with one of the following

logos. However, these VCRs may support

some or all of the features described earlier.

For details, see your VCR instruction

manual.

• For Ireland model

(AV32X25EI/AV28X25EI):

If your TV can detect the TV channel

name from the TV channel broadcast

signal, the TV channel name is assigned

to the programme number (PR) to which

the TV channel has been set. However,

which TV channels are set to which

programme numbers (PR) will depend on

the area in which you live.

• If a TV channel you want to view is not

set to a programme number (PR), you can

set it using the MANUAL function. For

details, see “EDIT/MANUAL” on

page 27.

“Data Logic” (a trademark of Metz

Corporation)

“Easy Link” (a trademark of Phillips

Corporation)

“Megalogic” (a trademark of Grundig

“SMARTLINK” (a trademark of Sony

Corporation).

• The AUTO PROGRAM function does not

set the programme number PR 0 (AV) for

your video cassette recorder. You will

need to set this using the MANUAL

function.

• In some areas you may get TV reception

from more than one transmitter, for

example different ITV regions. In this

case each TV channel could be set twice.

If this happens, the first set of channels

will have the stronger signal. If you want

to delete the second set of channels, you

will have to do it manually (see page 30).

„ Pre-set download

The VCR will automatically download the

registered data on the TV channels from the

TV. This means you do not need to set up the

program channels on your VCR manually.

The preset download function automatically

begins when the initial setting is complete or

whenever you carry out the AUTO

PROGRAM or EDIT/MANUAL functions.

You can also carry out this function using

your VCR controls.

When “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is

displayed:

If “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is

displayed, the download was not performed

correctly. Before trying to download again,

check that:

• the VCR power is turned on

• the VCR is T-V LINK compatible

• the VCR is connected to the EXT-2

terminal

• the SCART cable is fully wired.

Setting up your TV

„ 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.

When the VCR is not ready (for example

when there is no tape inserted), “NO

RECORDING” is displayed.

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.

„ TV auto power on/VCR image view

When the VCR starts playing, the TV

automatically turns on and the images from

the EXT-2 terminal appear on the screen.

When the VCR menu is operated, the TV

automatically turns on and the images from

the EXT-2 terminal appear on the screen.

• This function does not happen if your

TV’s main power is turned off. Set your

TV’s main power to on (standby mode).

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 24 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.

• Have you set the SPEAKER function to

OFF? Follow the description

“COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 20 to try

to solve the trouble.

• 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.

• 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. There is

nothing wrong with the TV.

“SPEAKER” on page 22 to check the

SPEAKER function setting.

„ Poor picture

• If noise (snow) totally blocks 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” on page 21 to correct

the tilt.

„ If the TV does not respond to the

remote control

• 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 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

„ 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.
