When connecting to the PC (HDMI), no signal is detected.| • Turn the TV off/on using the remote control.
• Reconnect the HDMI cable.
• Restart the PC with the TV on.
Abnormal Display| • If the product feels cold to the touch, there may be a small “flicker” when it is turned on. This is normal, there is nothing wrong with product.
• This panel is an advanced product that contains millions of pixels. You may see tiny black dots and/or brightly coloured dots (white, red, blue or green) at a size of 1 ppm on the panel. This does not indicate a malfunction and does not affect the performance and reliability of the product. This phenomenon also occurs in third-party products and is not subject to exchange or refund.
• You may find different brightness and colour of the panel depending on your viewing position(left/right/top/down). This phenomenon occurs due to the characteristic of the panel.
It is not related with the product performance, and it is not malfunction.
• Displaying a still image for a prolonged period of time may cause image sticking. Avoid displaying a fixed image on the TV screen for a long period of time.
Generated Sound| • “Cracking” noise: A cracking noise that occurs when watching or turning off the TV is generated by plastic thermal contraction due to temperature and humidity. This noise is common for products where thermal deformation is required.
• Electrical circuit humming/panel buzzing: A low level noise is generated from a high-speed switching circuit, which supplies a large amount of current to operate a product. It varies depending on the product. This generated sound does not affect the performance and reliability of the product.
The TV stays on or does not turn on automatically in Line View.| • The motion sensor is located on the lower centre of the TV. If there is any foreign substance on the outside of the sensor, the sensor may not work.
• If the brightness of the TV viewing environment is too bright or too dark, the motion sensor may not operate properly.
• If there are obstacles in front of the TV, the performance of the motion sensor may be affected.
• It can operate by recognising the unintended lighting environment around the TV or the movement of objects (LEDs/pet dogs/robot vacuum cleaners, etc.).
• The sensor performance can be increased or decreased by adjusting the motion sensor sensitivity in → → [General] → [System] → [Additional Settings] →[Motion Sensor Sensitivity].
There is lint, thread, or bunching of threads on the
front cover.| • In the case of having Kvadrat fabric on the front cover, there may be threads, lint, or bunching of threads due to the nature of the wool material and its natural design. This is an inherent characteristic of natural wool fabrics and is not a product fault. Please note that this is not a valid reason for an exchange or a refund.

• Make sure to wring any excess water or cleaner from the cloth.
• Do not spray water or cleaner directly onto the TV screen.
• Make sure to spray just enough of water or cleaner onto a dry cloth to wipe the screen.

Precautions for Protecting the OLED TV Screen

Unlike regular LED/LCDs, OLED TVs produce images that emit light for each pixel, achieving a perfect black colour and delivering clear images without blurring.
Due to the nature of the organic materials used to achieve high-resolution image quality, OLED displays generally experience image retention on the screen, which can be a persistent phenomenon. This phenomenon is observed in all OLED panels, and although recommended picture modes can minimise image retention, current technology cannot completely prevent this from occurring.
Displaying the same image for a long time or repeatedly displaying the same image can cause image retention on the screen, which is a common phenomenon in OLED panel products due to the nature of the product. This product has a built-in screen protection feature. Avoid displaying images that are likely to cause image retention, and follow the recommendations.
Images that are likely to cause image retention

• Images with black areas on the top and bottom and/or the left and right sides of the screen.
• Images whose aspect ratio is 4:3 or 21:9.
• Images that are fixed for a long time, such as program number, station logo, game console icon, set-top box menu, etc.
• Other fixed screen images or repeatedly displayed images.

Running [Pixel Cleaning] to Protect the OLED TV Screen
The OLED TV is equipped with a pixel cleaning feature to check the status of the screen by itself and prevent image retention that leaves an image on a screen. This feature automatically calculates the optimal execution time based on the accumulated viewing time and is automatically executed when the TV is turned off. While this feature is running, horizontal lines may appear at the top and bottom of the screen. The pixel cleaning feature works when the product is connected to the power cord and main power.

• To run this function manually, press the button on the remote control, go to → [General] → [OLED Care] → [OLED Panel Care] and press [Pixel Cleaning].

Recommendations for Minimising Image Retention
When watching the TV for a long time, press the button on the remote control, go to → [Picture] → [Select Mode] and set the mode to [Eco] / [APS] (Depending on country), go to [Advanced Settings] → [Brightness] and set [OLED Pixel Brightness] to a lower level. In addition, press the button on the remote control, go to → [General] → [OLED Care] → [OLED Panel Care] and set the [Adjust Logo Brightness] value to [High]. When showing images with black bars at the top/bottom/left/right side of the screen, press the button on the remote control, press , and go to [Picture] → [Aspect Ratio] → [User Selection] → [Vertical Zoom] or [4-Way Zoom] to remove the black bars.
Turn off the menus for setting up devices such as set-top boxes so that they are not displayed on the screen for a long time.
Note

• When the screen is showing one fixed image for a long time, the screen brightness will be automatically reduced and then restored once the screen content changes. This is a normal function to minimise image retention.

• NEVER place a television set in an unstable location.
• NEVER place the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.
