GHOSTS

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the

direct path and the other is reflected by tall buildings, hills or other large

objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve

the reception.

SNOW

If the TV is located far from the TV station, in a fringe reception area where

the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the picture.

If the signal is extremely weak, the installation of a larger external antenna

may be necessary.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)

Caused by two-way radios, this type of interference produces moving

ripples or diagonal streaks in the picture. Some cases may cause a loss of

contrast in the picture. Changing the direction and position of the antenna

or installing an RFI filter may improve the picture.

PICTURE SIZE VARIATION

A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST or

BRIGHTNESS settings.

Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/

UHF antenna. Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results. The most common types of television

interference are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the TV is connected to a Cable TV

system, the disturbance may be caused by the local Cable TV company broadcast.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the TV from the power source before cleaning.

The finish on the cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft, damp cloth and cared for as other furniture.

Use caution when cleaning or wiping the plastic parts.

IGNITION

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or

drift. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems,

neon lamps or AC powered tools and appliances such as drills or hair

dryers.
