Advanced Troubleshooting

If the standard reset does not resolve your issue, try the Factory Reset/Default

Restore Factory Settings

This resets your product to its factory default configuration. Unless indicated otherwise, all settings are cleared and reverted to their original out-of-box state. After, your product can be configured as if it were being setup for the first time.

Restoring factory defaults only affects Settings menu options.

When factory settings are restored on your system, only the Settings menu options are affected:

Center and surround speaker levels
Speaker mode
Audio processing settings

Note: System menu options—such as remote codes and video format settings—are not affected.

On the remote control, press the System button.
Tip: If the system menu does not appear on your TV, ensure the correct TV input is selected.
Scroll right to select Media Center, then press the Enter button.
Scroll down to select Restore Settings, then press the Enter button.
Scroll up to select Yes, then press the Enter button.
The display shows: Have you been instructed to do this?
Scroll left to select Yes, then press the Enter button.
Press the Exit button to exit the menu.
