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.

The panel is a high technology display product with resolution of two million to eight million pixels. You may see tiny black dots and/or brightly coloured 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 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 (e.g., broadcasting channel logo, on-screen menu, scene from a video game) for a prolonged time may cause damage to the screen, resulting in retention of the image, which is known as image sticking. The warranty does not cover the  product for image sticking.
Avoid displaying a fixed image on your television’s screen for a prolonged period (2 or more hours for LCD, 1 or more hours for Plasma). Also, if you watch the TV at a ratio of 4:3 for a long time, image sticking may occur on the borders of the panel.
This phenomenon also occurs in third-party products and is not subject to exchange or refund.

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.
Do not use high voltage electrical goods near the TV(e.g. electric mosquito- swatter). This may result in product malfunction.
