General

The TV goes into Standby mode.

 

This TV is equipped with auto power standby 
function (p. 18).

The remote control does not work or is 
intermittent.

 

Replace the batteries (p. 5).

 

Point the remote control directly at the remote 
control signal receiver of the TV (within about 7 m 
and 30 degree angle).

 

Situate the TV away from sunshine or block sources 
of bright light from shining on the remote control 
signal receiver of the TV.

Parts of the TV become hot.

 

Even if the temperature of parts of the front, top and 
rear panels has risen, these temperature rises do 
not cause any problems in terms of performance or 
quality.

The TV panel moves slightly when it is 
pushed with a finger.

Clattered sound might be heard.

 

There is some flexibility around the panel to prevent 
damage. This is not a malfunction.

Overcurrent error message appears.

 

The connected USB device might cause this error. 
Remove the device and turn the TV off with Mains 
power On / Off switch, then turn it on again.

 

Check foreign objects are not inside the USB port.

Maintenance

First, remove the mains plug from the socket 
outlet.

Regular care

 

Gently wipe the surface of the display panel, cabinet 
and pedestal by using a soft cloth.

 

Wipe the mains plug with a dry cloth at regular 
intervals. Moisture and dust may lead to fire or 
electrical shock.

For stubborn dirt

First clean the dust on the surface. Dampen a soft cloth 
with clean water or diluted neutral detergent (1 part 
detergent to 100 parts water). Wring the cloth and wipe 
the surface. Finally, wipe away all the moisture.

Caution

 

Do not use a hard cloth or rub the surface too hard as 
this could scratch the surface.

 

Do not subject the TV’s surfaces to water or detergent. 
Liquid inside the TV could lead to product failure.

 

Do not subject the surfaces to insect repellent, solvent, 
thinner or other volatile substances. This may degrade 
surface quality or cause peeling of the paint.

 

The surface of the display panel is specially treated 
and may be easily damaged. Take care not to tap or 
scratch the surface with your fingernail or other hard 
objects.

 

Do not allow the cabinet and pedestal to make contact 
with a rubber or PVC substance for a long time. This 
may degrade surface quality.
