Important information regarding use of video games, computers, captions or other fi xed image displays
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause a permanent "shadow image" on the LCD/LED panel, also known as "screen burn".
This "shadow image" can appear in the background during normal viewing. This type of irreversible LCD/LED panel deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:
- Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum suitable viewing level.
- Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.
- 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):
• TV channel logos: e.g. shopping channel logos and pricing displays - especially if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause ageing of the screen. - Time displays.
- Teletext: Do not view a static page for a long period of time
• TV/DVD menus: e.g. listings of DVD disc content. - Pause mode: Do not leave the TV in pause mode for long periods of time, e.g. when watching DVDs or videos.
Important: Once 'shadow image/screen burn' occurs, it will never disappear and is not repairable under warranty.

The risk is increased as televisions become lighter.

UPDATING SOFTWARE
There are a number of ways in which the software on your set can be updated. When your set is produced, the software installed will ensure the correct operation of the set, this may need to be updated should improvements be made and this is normally carried out automatically if the set is connected to the internet.
Note: For further support with software updates, contact our technical support team or refer to the 'Product Support' section of the website. If the television is using the newest software available it will not attempt to update the software.
If your set is outside of guarantee and the installation of the software causes a different issue you may be liable for a chargeable repair service. The reason for this is because you may have a fault which can cause corruption on one of the boards when installing the software. This could result in your unit locking into SAFE mode whereby it is stuck in standby. This is not a fault with the software, this would be caused by an existing faulty board that would have required a repair.

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, Google account and other login information, Google Play and other installed apps).
Press the [HOME] button, then select Settings > Device Preferences > Reset > Erase everything.
After the factory reset process completes successfully, your television will proceed into the first time installation mode. You must agree to the Google Terms of Service and Google Privacy Policy.
What type of storage device do I require for Apps
Should you wish to store your Apps on an external memory device, this can either be in the form of a SD card or a USB connected storage device (USB memory stick).
It is recommended that the memory device does not exceed 256Gb and has read speeds of at least 15MB per second write speeds greater than 4MB per second.
Note: If using a powered memory device, ensure that the power is applied before turning on the set.
No colour/Dark picture/Colour is not correct/Picture is too bright
You can adjust colour tone, brightness and picture quality on your TV from the Picture menu in Settings.
Press the [HOME] button, then select Settings > Device Preferences > Picture.
In this menu you can make manual picture adjustments.
If you want to reset the picture settings, select Reset to Default option.
Distorted picture/The screen fl ickers
You can check the connection and position of the antenna (aerial) and external devices.
Check the antenna aerial/cable connection.
