Answer
My remote control does not
work.
What should I do?
• Check the antenna or cable connection to the main unit.
• Check the batteries of the remote control.
• Check if there is an obstacle between the infrared sensor window and the remote control.
If okay, then possible infrared sensor trouble.
• Aim the remote control directly at the infrared sensor window on the front of the unit.
• Reduce the distance to the unit.
• Re-insert the batteries with their polarities (+/–) as indicated.
• When there is an infrared-equipped device such as PC near this unit, it may interrupt the remote control signal of this unit. Move the
infrared-equipped device away from this unit, change the angle of the infrared sensor or Turn Off the infrared communication
function.
How come the Initial setup
appears every time I Turn On
this unit?

to their corresponding colored jacks on the unit.
When I enter a channel number,
it changes automatically.
• Many Digital channels have alternate channel numbers. The unit changes the numbers automatically to the ones signifying the
broadcasting station channel number. These basic numbers used for previous Analog broadcasts. (e.g., Input ch# 30 automatically
changes to ch# 6.1)
Why are captions not displayed
entirely? Or, captions are
delayed behind the dialog.
• Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialog are common for live broadcasts. Most captioning production
companies can display a dialog to maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialog exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure
that the captions remain up-to date with the current TV screen dialog.
How can I set the clock?
• There is no clock function on this unit.
I cannot change the Child lock
setting because my PIN code no
longer works.
• If a Power failure occurs for longer than 10 seconds the child lock setting is retained, but the PIN code is reset to the default code
0000. Refer to Child and ratings lock.
