SYSTEM LOCK-UP / RESETTING THE SYSTEM COMPUTER
If the built in system computer is subjected to a sudden surge or 'spike' in the AC power supply the
computer may 'lock-up' and the unit will not respond to commands from any of the front panel
controls or the remote controller. If such a 'lock-up' occurs you must use the RESET button, located
on the inside bottom of the unit, to unlock the system computer.
Refer to the following illustration.
1.) Leave the unit connected to the AC outlet. The system computer cannot be reset if the AC
power cord is disconnected.
2.) If the power is 'On', press the POWER button to return the unit to the 'Standby' mode. The main
display goes off and the STANDBY indicator comes 'On'.
3.) Place the main unit on it's side to expose the bottom of the set.
4.) Use a wooden or plastic toothpick, or similar device (Do Not Use Any Metal Object) to press the
RESET button which is located inside the cabinet, as shown in the illustration.
Note: This procedure will clear the system computer lock-up, but it will also clear the preset tuner
memories, any CD program settings, clock and timer settings. It will be necessary to reprogram
the tuner memories, reset the clock, and reset the timer after you clear the system computer.
