First time installation

1. When the set first turns on, it enters the First Time Installation mode. This can be restarted by restoring the set to default settings in the ‘About TV’ Menu. Select your preferred on-screen display language. This will change the language in which the menus and associated information is displayed in.

2. Select the correct country in which the set will be used in. This will enable the set to correctly install the functions applicable in the country of use.

3. This needs to be set to establish parentol controls.

4. Set the Time Zone in which the TV will reside. This may be dependent on the country you select in step 2.

5. You will need to agree to certain information collection for the TV set to operate as intended.

7. If you have a Netfl ix account, it can be set up on the television here. Once set up and validated, the First Time Installation returns to the next step.

8. Home Mode: For normal use, by default it is set to a power saving mode which reduces the energy used by up to 25%
