Troubleshooting

Cannot control the TV with
the remote control.|  • Check the remote control sensor on the product and try again.
• Check if there is any obstacle between the product and the remote control.
• Check if the batteries are still working and properly installed
---|---
No image display and no sound is produced.|  • Check if the product is turned on.
• Check if the power cord is connected to a wall outlet.
• Check if there is a problem in the wall outlet by connecting other products.
The TV turns off suddenly.|  • Check the power control settings. The power supply may be interrupted.
• Check if the auto-off function is activated on the settings related time.
• If there is no signal while the TV is on, the TV will turn off automatically after 15 minutes of inactivity.
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 the product.
• This panel is an advanced product that contains millions of pixels. You may see tiny black dots and/or brightly colored dots (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 color 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 to the product performance, and it is not malfunctioning.
• 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.

• 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 color 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 minimize 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 the 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], 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 minimize image retention.
