3. Turn the power off when not in use.

Examples of images that are more likely to cause "screen burn" are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents is urging people to take care with flat-screen televisions. RoSPA stated in 2010 that "Toddlers are particularly at risk of pulling flat-screen televisions on to themselves. They are unsteady on their feet and are attracted by colourful television images."

The risk is increased as televisions become lighter.

Wall mounting & Viewing Angle

IMPORTANT - Before drilling any holes in the wall ensure you are not drilling where there could be any electrical wires, water or gas pipes.

1. Remove the four screws located at the back of the TV set.
2. The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes, located on the back of the TV, using the same four screws removed.

Note: This diagram to the left is an example of screw positions. Due to model variations, please ensure you check your TV for the exact location of the wall mounting screw positions.

Troubleshooting

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

If a full restart of the TV is required

If you have trouble, such as the picture not displaying on the screen or the remote control not working, reset the television with the following procedure. If an external USB device is connected to the TV, disconnect the USB device from the TV before resetting.

Power Reset

Restart the TV with the remote control

Press and hold the power button on the remote control for about 5 seconds until the |Power off| message is displayed. Confirm this by pressing OK button and the TV will turn off.

Unplug the AC power cord (mains lead).

If the problem persists after step 1, unplug the TV power cord (mains lead) from the electrical outlet and wait for 2 minutes. Then plug the power cord (mains lead) back into the electrical outlet.

Note: Your personal settings and data will not be lost after the TV restarts.

Factory Data Reset

If the problem persists after a power reset, try a factory data reset.

Note: Performing a factory reset will delete all of the TV's data and settings (such as Wi-Fi and wired network setting information).

Press the [MENU] button, then select Settings > Setup > Reset to Default

After the factory reset process completes successfully, your television will proceed into the first time installation mode.

Keep the antenna aerial/cable away from other connecting cables.

When installing an optional device, leave some space between the device and the TV.

Make sure that the antenna (acrial) is connected using a high quality 75 ohm coaxial cable.

Check the troubleshooting guide for the connected device.

There are icons and text on the edges of the screen

Troubleshooting

The TV cannot connect to the Internet/Network

If the Wi-Fi network does not connect or disconnects, try the following.

Press the [MENU] button and check that the following setting is enabled. Setup > Network > Internet Connection

Check the installation location of the TV and Wi-Fi router. Signal condition may be affected by the following:

Other Wi-Fi devices, microwaves, fluorescent lights, etc. that may be located nearby.

There are floors or walls between the Wi-Fi router and television.

Turn the Wi-Fi router off and then on again.

If the network name (SSID) of the Wi-Fi router to which you want to connect is not displayed, select Add new network to enter a network name (SSID).

If the problem is not resolved even after the procedures above or if you cannot connect even with a wired network, check the status of the network connection.

Do I need an aerial signal?

For full functionality of your TV set equipped with Freeview Play you will require an aerial connected to the set with an adequate and reliable signal.

Why does my set turn on from standby so quickly?

During standby your set will be in a higher power state to enable it to turn on quickly. Should you want to put the set into low power standby, press and hold down the [STANDBY] button on the remote control for more than two seconds. This will bring up an option to put the set into low power standby. While in low power standby, the set will take longer to come on when the [STANDBY] button is pressed.

TV can connect to the Internet, but not to certain apps and services

The date and time settings of this TV may be incorrect. Depending on certain apps and services, you may not be able to connect to these if the time is incorrect.

Press the [HOME] button, then select Setup > DTV Time Set Up > Auto Synchronization > Use network-provided time to automatically adjust the time through the network.

Troubleshooting

The remote control does not operate.

Check if the TV is working properly.

Press the power button on the television to determine if the problem is with the remote control or not.

Check if the remote control is working properly.

Point the remote control at the remote control sensor located at the front of the television.

Keep the remote control sensor area clear from obstacles.

Fluorescent light can interfere with remote control operation; try turning off any fluorescent light.

Check that the orientation of each battery matches the positive (+) and negative (-) symbols in the battery compartment.

Battery power may be low. Remove the remote control cover and replace the batteries with new ones.

I cannot set the picture levels while on apps

This is because the application sets the picture levels.

I cannot access Freeview Play

To enable Freeview Play to operate correctly, you must have the set tuned in and set up in the UK and installed as country setting UK. In addition, it needs to be connected to the internet.

Why am I not able to use letters in my PIN?

Your PIN is a quick code used for accessing some of the higher functions of your set. This only contains numbers so that they can be entered using your remote control keypad.

Can I set parental controls?

Parental controls are possible when receiving digital television channels (should this service be provided by the broadcaster).

Parental control within apps is determined by the functionality of the app. For details on this you will need to go into the app settings

What do I do if my apps do not work?

First check that your set is connected to the internet, if it is, ensure that the internet connection is consistent and reliable. If this does not resolve the issue, remove the mains supply from the set and turn back on a few minutes later.

Press the [MENU] button, then select Settings > Setup > Reset to Default
