Tips

Screen Care: Clean the screen with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive solvents as they may damage the coating layer of the TV screen. For your safety, unplug the mains plug when cleaning the set. When moving the TV, hold it properly from the bottom.

Image Persistence: Please note that ghosting may occur while displaying a persistent image. LCD TVs' image persistence may disappear after a short time. Try turning off the TV for a while.

To avoid this, do not leave the screen on a still picture image for extended periods.

No Power: If your TV system has no power, please check the main power cable and connection to the mains socket outlet.

Poor Picture: Have you selected the correct TV system? Is your TV set or house aerial located too close to a non-earthed audio equipment or neon lights, etc.? Mountains or high buildings can cause double pictures or ghost images. Sometimes you can improve the picture quality by changing the direction of the aerial. Is the picture or teletext unrecognisable? Check if you have entered the correct frequency. Please return the channels. The picture quality may degrade when two peripherals are connected to the TV at the same time. In such a case, disconnect one of the peripherals.

No Picture: Is the aerial connected properly? Are the plugs connected tightly to the aerial socket? Is the aerial cable damaged? Are suitable plugs used to connect the aerial? If you are in doubt, consult your dealer. No Picture means that your TV is not receiving a transmission. Have you selected the correct button on the remote control? Try once more. Also make sure the correct input source has been selected.

Sound: If you cannot hear any sound check if the ✗ button has been pressed or check if there are any headphones plugged into the TV. If sound is coming from only one of the speakers check if the balance is set to one extreme. See Sound Menu.

Remote Control: Your TV no longer responds to the remote control. Perhaps the batteries are exhausted. If so you can still use the local buttons on the TV.

Input Sources: If you cannot select an input source, it is possible that no device is connected. Check the AV cables and connections if you have tried to connect a device.

Recording Unavailable: To record a programme, you should first connect a USB disk to your TV while the TV is switched off. You should then switch on the TV to enable recording feature. Otherwise, recording feature will not be available. If you cannot perform recording, try switching off the TV and then re-inserting the USB device while the TV is switched off.

USB Is too Slow: If "USB is too slow" message is displayed on the screen while starting a recording, try restarting the recording. If you still get the same error, it is possible that your USB disk does not meet the speed requirements. Try connecting another USB disk.

Appendix E: Software Upgrade

  • Your TV is capable of finding and updating new software upgrades over broadcast channels.
  • For broadcast channels search, the TV looks at the available channels stored in your settings. So the before software upgrade search, it is advised to auto search and update all available channels.

1) Software upgrade search via user interface

- It is possible manually to check if there is a new software upgrade for your TV set.

- Simply navigate on your main menu. Choose Settings and select Other Settings menu. In Other Settings menu navigate on to the Software Upgrade item and press OK button to open the Upgrade Options menu.

- In Upgrade Options menu select Scan for upgrade and press the OK button.

- If a new upgrade is found, it starts to download the upgrade. A progress bar indicates the remaining download progress. When the download completes successfully a message is displayed for reboot to activate new software. Press OK to continue with the reboot operation.

2) 3.AM search and upgrade mode

- If Automatic scanning in Upgrade Options menu is enabled, the TV wakes up at 03:00 and searches broadcast channels for a new software upgrade. If new software is found and downloaded successfully, when next turned on the TV will use the latest software version.

Note on reboot operation: Reboot is the last step in software upgrade operation if download of new software is finished successfully. During the reboot the TV makes final initializations. In the reboot sequence panel power is closed and the front led indicates the activity by blinking. Around 5 minutes later TV restarts with new software activated.

- If your TV fails to restart in 10 minutes, unplug power for 10 minutes and re-plug again. The TV should open with new software safely. If you still cannot get the TV working, please repeat the unplug and plug sequence a few more times. If your set still cannot operate, please call the service personnel to fix the problem for you.

Caution: While led is blinking during reboot do not unplug your TV's power. Doing this may cause your TV not to re-open again and can only be fixed by service personnel.
