Poor picture
Picture quality not as good as
viewed at the store
• Picture quality depends on the signal content. See Quick Setup Guide
(supplied) to display the best possible picture for that signal.
Broadcast HD formats have
poor quality
• Content and signal quality are regulated by the signal provider. Many HD
channels and content are actually upscaled versions of standard-definition
broadcasts. The picture is affected by the quality of the signal received, which
varies between channel and program.
• Confirm the picture quality by selecting Signal Diagnostics in the Product
Support settings (page 31). Then select Sample Image (or Additional
Information first). An HD image will display on the screen to confirm routine
panel operation. If your normal picture quality is worse than this sample image,
it is most likely due to the signal provided by the broadcaster.

• Check the antenna location and direction.
Only snow and noise appear
on the screen
Check if the antenna is broken or bent.
