defect and does not affect the TV’s functionality.
· This smell is normal and will dissipate over time.
· The “clicking” sound can be caused when the temperature of the TV changes.
This change causes the TV cabinet to expand or contract, which makes the
sound. This is normal and the TV is OK.
· Yes, this is normal. The TV is initializing and searching for the previous
setting information.
