outlet.

There is no picture on the TV screen.
, Check that the input mode of the TV is appropriate for the connector in use on

the system.

, Check that the cable is securely inserted. Try disconnecting the cable from the

PS3™ system or TV and reconnecting it.

, There may be a problem with the AV cable in use. Try using another cable that

is compatible with the PS3™ system.

in use, there may be no picture. If the screen goes blank, turn off the system.
Then, with only the system and the TV connected, touch the system's power
button for more than 5 seconds to turn the system back on. The video output
settings will automatically be reset to the standard resolution.

, If the resolution of the video content is not supported by the TV in use, when the

video is played the screen may go blank. If this happens, go to the screen for
selecting the resolution in the system's video output settings, and then select all
the resolutions that are supported by the TV.

resolution, only discs recorded in the PAL standard can be played.

cause the image to become lighter or darker. In such cases, connect the system to
the TV directly.

played.

, Some DVDs are preset with parental control restrictions. Enter the password that

was set in "Security Settings" to temporarily increase the viewer age restriction
level.

was set in "Security Settings" to change the parental control level.

created.

page 18).

Certain BDs cannot be played.

, To play commercially available BD video software, in some cases the encryption

key for AACS (Advanced Access Control System) may need to be renewed. The
encryption key can be renewed when the system software is updated.

The size of the video image and the TV screen do not match.
, Check that the system's video output settings are correct.
, Check that the settings of the connected TV are correct. For details, refer to the

instructions supplied with your TV.
